Like a good union man I am on a break, time for some guilt-free LiveJournaling. Not that I have much to say. The forecast this morning was predicting snow so I brought my IR camera in today in the hopes of taking some pictures in the snow to pass this pointless hour. No such luck.

In three seconds or less, assess the personalities of 27 people based on their clothes, facial expressions, and body language and pick the least annoying one to sit next to.
So I got an e-mail from New York about the possible job in Toronto this morning, wanting to talk to me further. Up to this point I've been dealing with a guy in California, who has now passed me up to New York. The company doing the placement is Japanese, in business since 1967 and is big on open source (they own Turbolinux, one of the distros supported by IBM). So far all I know about the client is that they are a Japanese-owned electronics industry company.
