I was talking with @scottalanmiller and brought up something that had popped into my mind recently: wasn't there a version of Windows Server where the clock was hidden by default? I asked him:
This is totally unrelated but it has been on my mind, there was a time when Windows Server shipped and by default the clock was hidden from the system tray, did that happen or I'm I misremembering something? I'm thinking .NET server beta or even pre-SP1 2003
He couldn't recall that, so instead of just thinking about it I decided to google: windows server default clock hidden
Hey, first result is exactly what I'm looking for!
It's my own question asked 6 years ago on the very same topic. I'm not sure the selected answer is the right one, I am second guessing myself, how do I know that I wasn't a raving lunatic when I accepted that answer? I didn't quite remember ever asking it.
This has happened to me before though at least twice, though I wasn't forgetful that I had asked it. I had some issues with Exchange and XML RPC, really strange edge case stuff that I had asked about on stackoverflow.com, but nobody ever answered. I figured out a hack around it, a really ugly one, and about a year later I saw the code again and I really wanted to solve the problem, only to run right into my question again, still with no answer.
Is it cool if I hire some male model to take my photographs so I don't scare off the customers? In all seriousness, I do wonder if anyone has ever done that. I bet they have.

Not really, no. I still haven't figured out what I really want to do with my life. But I'm really happy, so......
No shame in that

What about us business owners who are neither young, nor hip, nor good looking? Especially not good lucking? What are we to do!?
Hire hot people. People who own strip clubs are almost always old and ugly, but the draw isn't the owners.
Note to self, hire strippers. Got it.
Aside from the obvious in the article, it's easy: Whenever you get it from ITT Tech or DeVry, or something along those lines. Not only are they not taken seriously in many places, they also cost about 3x-4x as much as a regular degree from a state school.
You should offer a Personal Assistant reference if the person does well, could look good on some résumés for people into the PA thing.
@Vidya I hear that, my last birthday the cake my employees got me said "Go to hell you old bastard"
Here's a current snap shot of our corporate offices:
@Nic My cousin and one of my sisters in Bosnia live on about 500 euros a month pretty well. Compared to how much I had to spend living in Manhattan...
tl;dr I agree.

She may be a queen, but she's still paying you and if you run away I don't think there's anything she can do about it, surely not have you hunted down and recaptured.
Have you met the Minion Queen? If it wasn't so blase she would have us all in dog collars and leashes, just to keep us close to her ever changing whims.
I'd be careful, some people may be too into that for comfort
@scottalanmiller Well, you could say it has a lot of flavour
Adult stars have certainly take on unusual names these days, maybe to appeal to the college students
+1 for not being yet another person who just gives up on quality and melts their brains with Sonicwall

Wow, nearly a thousand views on this one!!
Oh, sorry, I'm obsessively refreshing the page to see when someone's hired.... cannot think of punch line, withdrawing joke.
A cute story: once I posted on a forum in a contest requiring a cute story for a free give away. Long story short: I won it, but the story is too cute to post here, primarily because, this one time [scene missing]

Just don't use Comic Sans It's unprofessional to use it in most professional work.
More like ever.
@scottalanmiller said in Fixing My Resume:
This feels way too long. You should be at one page. How many is this turning into?
I go through résumés every day and that was my first thought was "damn this is too long." Me personally, I like it when major or niche skills are summarised with background in some manner and then you can detail it after that. I've never been good at writing résumés and ironically I've never gotten a job because of mine (studying nuclear science isn't really helpful to IT or programming) so I can't really be directly helpful other than as someone who does hire and fire: be more succinct. I have literally no more helpful advice.
Edit: Your PDF you posted is a lot better, I like that. Good work and good luck!
is a day without sunshine.
