Jobs come and go….
Today was kind of a reality check day for me. Today the day started off all fine and good, until I went to read my email. A friend of mine got laid off from his job today :-(
He has been at his current job for about 3 years, and was the kind of person to stick up for the people around him. I am sure he will be missed by the people he worked with, but it gives him a chance to move to something he might enjoy a bit more.
Today at work was not all that exciting. I worked on writing a script to help detect a Veritas storage foundation bug we ran in to. The bug is that a veritas config file gets corrupt, and the veritas disk ID does not match the OS disk ID. It is a very annoying bug.
After work I went to my personal trainer, and I had a very good session. I was able to do 10 push-ups, and I can almost do sit-ups all the way without assistance. This may not sound like much, but for me it is a big step. When I lost weight I lost quite a bit of muscle, and I have been able to recover from that. Now that I am working on loosing weight again, it is very helpful not loosing the muscle mass again.
For the evening, I went to my friends house for moral support. We ended up watching two classic movies as we drank whatever was in the house. I was smart and picked up two bottles of coke zero on my way over, so i was set for the evening, as I could use a bit of help relaxing as well :-).
The movie selections where better off dead, and canadian bacon.
