    Furthermore, there never even was a UL website to hack to begin with.

    Head of ITD Ian McKenzie sent out an email acknowledging it just now :P

    What absolute disgusting piece of **** left this in CSIS? :eek::eek::eek:

    It's bad enough my housemates decide to scream up to each other from downstairs at upstairs at 00:30-1:00 when they know I'm in bed, very sick with flu and tonsillitis but seriously, blasting crappy Youtuber collabs at 8am-now and laughing hysterically is really going to make me so much better!

    God, I can't wait till you guys move out.. but no more being nice, I'm going to stop using earphones and blast my own tv and movies at unreasonable hours of the day and night.

    Payback time.

    Finished my Literature Review months ago. Four days left until submission of completed FYP, my supervisor essentially tells me I need to redo the entire thing. Even my headings are wrong! She's received multiple copies of my lit review since I finished it and no word on it except to make it a bit longer. I'm absolutely raging :mad: Also, my results are good? Good?! Majority of them don't even make sense, hence why my discussion is so short for each part... it's exceedingly difficult to think of a reason for each of the results, nevermind go and find papers that back up that reason... :mad: Four days left and she springs this crap on me, something she should have told me months ago and would take weeks to rectify. And then act as if it was my fault, as always.

    This is what I never understood! Why is the packaging made so hard that you actually can only open it with another scissors (though a knife might work)?:pac:

    :mad: Awful. It's a good thing I didn't find it, I nearly lost the plot today in 2044, what with all the happy campers taking up the good computers, chatting, laughing.....

    And of course, my usual computer (the one with the working keyboard) is out of order.

    I'm always in 2044. This is the one day I was up in 3005b. I feel so sick just thinking about it :eek: All of the labs are so loud and busy all the time now :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 619 ✭✭✭iLaura


    I've a lab exam tomorrow, and out of the list of 10 possible circuits to be made, one of them none of us can decipher what we're even meant to draw, let along be able to make. Then there's another one that we never did in the labs! This exam is meant to test previous labs that we've done, not ones we were told to skip from the manual!:confused::mad:

    It wasn't really, but while I was there a really loud speaker came on saying something like 'due to circumstances out of our control, the gym is being evacuated, please go to the nearest exit.'

    So we all went down to the reception, a big crowd of us there and the receptionists told us we could go back up! Was strange enough!

    The fire alarm went off in CSIS yesterday, was that a drill or what? Everyone in the lab just laughed it off and kept typing, but I had to leave after a few minutes, it got very annoying.

    Apparently something set it off in one of the rooms and it was going off for so long because they needed a key or something. So no, it wasn't a drill, but it wasn't a real fire either. We also weren't going to leave :D

    One of my team went home without telling me. He just packed up and left yesterday because he couldn't handle the little thing I needed him to build.
    It did occur to me that he might have pulled an alarm to stop me finishing the project....

    Made it myself in about ten minutes anyway, but we needed to write up the deliverables today and split work percentages between us.

    He showed up just to argue with me, and walked out of the building without signing anything. The rest of the team were sort of looking forward to me hitting him.....
