If anyone could give me a hand it would be greatly appreciated.

I'm making a game of Jeopardy. I've got 9 of the 12 categories done. If anyone has any good ideas for a category (potentially word play based) that I could make five questions out of I'd be very grateful.

Fun with flags

I got a new phone. It's a blokia.

Just kidding. It is a Nokia though. So far I love it. It's only been a few hours, and it's android after me being an apple fanboy for so long. But it's grand!

Im planning on getting a new phone also and looking at Nokia also. May I ask which one you got Sulli and how its been after a few days?

Nokia 7.1. I love it so far. It’s got an amazing camera. I’ve had no issues to date!

I work in a sensititive enough field and we were told not to use those due to the snooping issues.

Lol the US has a real issue with them all right, I wouldn’t be encouraged to use one of those either.

My cup of care is empty

I use my phone for WhatsApp and calls. Sometimes boards. Feck all else. They’re welcome to have an auld snoop.

I got a Nokia 7 Plus on Vodafone when I switched. Lovely phone so it is. Have a look at the Chinese Android phone thread for some of the Xiaomi phones. Save you a far bit and good quality.

Evening all? how is everyone on this fine Tuesday night?

My laptop isn't talking to me, she said she feels very very neglected.

I am sitting on 68%. I doubt my thesis was below 60 and the last assignment was an open book test... I’m as close to qualified as I can get.

Whats it in?

quickbeam · 26-03-2019 09:31PM

How’s the new job going MrsF? Not really ‘new’ any more, you’re probably well settled in.

Good luck, Sully. Do we have to call you Dr Sully when you pass?

Big shmoke bound tomorrow for a promotion interview. Been spending last day or so matching my work history to the competencies and now I'm bored.

Baggly · 27-03-2019 11:45AM

I put in for a temporary transfer within my dept to cover my counterpart with another brand.

Its basically the same job, but will look good that i have worked with both brands, if a higher up job pops up.

Necro · 27-03-2019 12:35PM

Does that mean relocation or anything Pter? Or just a different company run from same offices

I'd probably have to move from my desk to the desk opposite my desk.

Necro · 27-03-2019 12:43PM

:pac:

Trying times indeed :P

I'm hoping if I get through the interview I'll get an offer in Sligo which would mean a lot less travelling. And normal working hours again!

Kolido · 27-03-2019 12:44PM

Pter is the convert!

Baggly · 27-03-2019 12:45PM

I really like my current desk. My back is to a wall which is good for skiving. New desk wouldn't be.
