So this one guy at work, Brian, has been causing random chaos today. I don't know why, but he likes knocking things over on my desk. Today. Like my pencil holder, water bottle, he turned my mouse upside down, etc. For no reason.
So when he went to the washroom today, me and the other programmer ran over to his desk, and mirrored everything. We switched his monitors (physically), his mouse/keyboard, his glass, papers, and pretty much everything on his desk ended up on the opposite side of where it was.
When he came back, he said, "What, you guys dicked with my monitors [slight pause].. and everything else?" -- then we had a hearty laugh as he had to re-re-arrange his stuff. :)
Hahaha. I love doing stuff like that.
You should get a wireless keyboard, plug the reciever in and hide it somewhere. Then you can mess with him long range! Maybe get a USB hub so he doesn't notice anything changed!
a vnc client that doesn't have a taskbar notification icon is more fun :P
They tried that on me with a wireless mouse, I figured it out pretty fast. :)

Nah, we never screwed around in school. I would never do anything that might piss off the teacher who ran the computer lab.
I irritated my teacher slighty, but never completely pissed her off. We're all pretty smart kids, so she knew we'd get the work done even if we screwed off a good deal.
I'm always late of computer science due to me being a bad wake up person on weekdays, but I still have the highest mark at 98%. :)
You think 98% of a job will get you payed? You think customers will be content with a product that only works 98% of the time or to 98% of the specifications?! What's wrong with you?!!!
You should be shooting for more like 30%!
yeah, in my last year of highschool, I had a conflicting schedule. I had AP Physics in the same slot as Comp Sci, except that AP Physics was every second day. So I talked to the CS teacher, and he agreed to let me skip every second class to go to physics. And yup, still had the highest mark in the class, and still finished my assignments faster than most others (we worked on assignments in class).
You always know when you're going to do well in CS :)
That's pretty funny.

I didn't hand in a sheet where we did memory-tracking on paper... because I felt it was pointless as I already knew how to do it. Strangely I was the only one to get perfect on the that area on the test.. *shrug*
I only do around 75% or less of my job. I did hardly any work today and clocked around 7 hours.
People use Microsoft's stuff, right?
Firefox renders HTML I write just fine, and it doesn't even get close to 98% of even traditional specifications.
