So everything’s just about died down after the crazyness of move in week. In fact today I probably had one of the most unproductive days of my entire life. Which is odd because I was actually at work, and not just taking a day off or relaxing on the weekend. Sure I helped out a few students, fixed some ethernet jacks, which Andrew now knows how to fix, *clap clap clap*.

Anyway, of course this situation of helplessnes is compounded by all of the people in charge being absent today and us basically being unable to start much of anything without their OK. We should have a whole meeting tommorow in the morning, not sure if it’ll happen, the boss seems fairly sick and it’s probably best if she stays home. Anyway if it happens maybe we can get some project going.

Speaking a bit about the University of Waterloo hub, and some discussions on it. I for some reason decided to go and look up just how much some of the equipment we use costs. Ready normal people? Ready! $2 USD + shipping for 3 switches of which we use 2 for every “area”. I know it’s wrong and all, but I couldn’t stop laughing, not a happy laugh, more one of those ‘oh well we’re doomed anyway, may as well laugh’ laughs. Oh well, at least we may be getting a new core router in a hopefully near future!
