I think I'll hack the thread topic a bit and do a quick resume of the past 11 years !

I would be fun and interesting to all of us to see where we were, where we've been and where we are now in life.

Anyway, back then, I was going my college degree in Computer Science. Graduated in 2002 but had a hard time getting a job due to the post IT-bubble of 2000.

Started a bachelor in Software Engeneering, hated it. Moved to a Bachelor in Mathematics, had A the first year, when to C and D by the second year. Dropped out but had my first year completed converted in a minor :)

Got a job at Sun Microsystems and decided to do a minor in East Asian Studies.

Lost my job when we merged with Oracle Corporation (like 90% of Sun employees)

Did a few contracts after and recently landed a job in IT for a company that specialises in city management software (taxes management, physical infrastructure, online services, etc)

Decided to do a Master in IT Project Management over night classes. (Doing a Master or PhD over nights or weekends is quite common here)

Tomorrow is a paid holiday, hell resumes on Tuesday up until June 25th, 2012 !

Not many old names left to collect, is there now?


There're still plenty. Rydain, Hiryuu, Peardian, Bloodstar, cpubasic13, Tyty, Drag, Treeki, Cirvante, Darkdata, Aiya, etc.

And that's just to name a few.


I have Rydain on Facebook and Kasumi-Astra on twitter !

Anyone remeber Sofie ? I think she was from Belgium.

There's X-Grade that I've lost touch (but his brother is on my car forum)

I'm a Software Specialist for a company that does City Management Software (from taxes and payroll to infrastructure maps ,sub-contractor management, etc)

I seldom go on-site (since my collegue that usually does that is on a paternity leave), seldom do first line calls when I have free time. I'm also the person that does the link betweek the support guys and the development guys.

I'm also doing my master in IT Project Management at night. Not that bad, leave work, do 40 miles in rush hour traffic, get to class.

Good news for you, less wear on the glow plugs!

It's somewhat more seasonable today, high of 40°F (so it's only about 10°F warmer than usual instead of 25 or so). Wednesday it will probably be around 50° again, though.


The TDI sleeps in my heated garage and in the underground parking at work. Glow what ? :)

I'm outside around 20 to 30 second a day ! I go to university in a t-shirt when it's -30C outside ! :)

I go outside with a T-shirt too. But I also put on a jacket because I'm not a moron. :P

I do love the cold, but I'm not ignorant that I'm mortal and can get colds and other nasty shit. Also, bear traps will kill you.

The weather group I subscribe to has been saying that it's going to be foggy these last few days. I haven't seen any fog... but I sure as hell have been gassy. Leg fog, I guess. :/


For those who have been in Montreal, you've probably seen the underground city. I usually park in the underground parking at the Metro in Laval, take the Metro to Longueuil and get to my class, never going outside. When I worked downtown in Montreal, I'd be outside like 30 seconds a day. (Took the train, central station is underground, walk underground through buildings and shopping malls up to my job. Still having the same job, I could have taken the Metro from work up to university, never going outside once again.

It's been drizzling on and off. The temperature isn't too hot outside.


From 90F to 25F !

Well, life will not get better for me so I think it's best that I just commit suicide. ;_;


How about just ..... no .....

Life isn't all happy and cuddly. Some days aren't fun, some are bad, some are seriously shitty but when all it said and done, it evens out.

One day at a time !
