Are the posted questions getting worse?

  • The timing is less than ideal but that 21 years means I'm going to get quite a significant payout.  By my calculations, after tax it's a year's money so that should keep the wolf from the door for a bit.  It has been clarified in no uncertain terms that I'm not allowed to take the year off though.  I've got a final interview lined up on Thursday so fingers-crossed for that.

    Thanks for the link Brandie.  There's nothing on there at the moment but I'll keep my eye on it.


    On two occasions I have been asked, "Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?" ... I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.

    It's a big month for me.  After 21 years, I'm being made redundant on the 28th when we finally hand over our contract to another company.  I started at the very pointy end of the operation, knocking on peoples' doors in the middle of the night but I'm finishing off a long way from there.  Job-hunting is scary.

    Wow. Best of luck on the search. Reach out on LinkedIn if you want some promotion on your profile.
