...job is all the more interesting as it is in the Govt. sector. Its a different feeling, a different style of working, different language usage altogether (no, I don't mean the local language, but the official bureaucratic colonial one!). Its a weird thing, when your work seems like a plan of 'the journey to the moon on a bullock cart!' But I am sure it wont be too bad. Wish me luck! Other snippets...
...I do agree with, in general, is the complaint about the lack of will shown by our government during this whole thing. Left, Right, (up/down/sidewayse) doesn't matter, all sides have been very... bureaucratic and political in dealing with all this stuff. This is easy for me to say, because I'm sitting on the outside getting all this information through the media filter, but it really seems like no ...
... personally . Still, I was able to join in the discussion once in a while. -- Everyone was generally ok with their jobs and life. Roles ranged from development to QA to bureaucratic/managerial roles. The distribution of people among the prominent IT companies in the country was well within my expectations i.e. after 5 years, people dispersed to multiple companies instead of being concentrated ...
The thing you have to remember about Powell is that his calm and relatively inoffensive demeanor is simply a cover for years of bureaucratic experience and infighting strategy. On Face the Nation, he directly raised the specter of a membership fight by reminding Dick Cheney and Rush Limbaugh that they are not on the Membership Committee of the RNC. I can only hope to God that the current military...
..., even though I've already put in more than a full week. Our accounts with internet sellers like Amazon and Half.com are an unending source of misery and stress for me. Their artery-popping, impenetrable, bureaucratic shadiness has me tearing my hair out on a regular basis these days, and I spend half of my days now sending e-mails to ice-hearted customer service types. I used to disbelieve one of...
... school process for months just to get my damn teeth fixed, and that one tooth has been chipped since last summer or fall and is starting to hurt. DSS incompetence is just frustrating. Bureaucratic incompetence is frustrating. Sometimes you send in paperwork and they don't receive it. Sometimes their version of math seems to differ from the rest of the universe. Sometimes they send mail and you ...

We have the air conditioning engineers in the office and the place is starting to resemble the Nostromo from Alien, or Lowry's apartment i Brazil after the ducts have failed. I've got a horrible feeling that if I walk to the kitchen I'll either get grabbed by some alien monster or given an incomprehensible pile of forms to fill in, or in the worst case see one of my colleagues get grabbed by an ...
Previously proliferating in my published whinings: the Education Abroad office obliged me to translate all my syllabi from Brazil and find corresponding PSU courses (or did I complain about that? I don't remember now). I duly submitted all the forms, except for Intermediate Portuguese and Basic French because I didn't have the syllabi and didn't want credit for them, anyway. Then yesterday, the ...
So I have taken the first steps towards repayment on my SuperMegaDefaulted Student Loans. I'm going to try to get a consolidation loan. Of course, in order to even apply I have to get the current holders of my loans and the actual amounts. Which requires my PIN. Which I got in 1999 and thus no longer have. So I had to request a copy be sent to me. Which would go to my address in 1999. Which when ...
