Old stuff:
I finally needed the 3.5" floppys I have been hanging onto for the last ten years this morning. What have you been holding onto just in case?
Alt: How old is your computer?

I can't find the picture at the moment
but the computer room in the science building at my college still has a sign about what a floppy disk is and how to keep it safe.
alt: one year and 4 months, it was a christmas present year before last

Most people on B3ta spend too much time gripping their small penises as it is.

Stunned is the owner of the OT comb over, but it's more of a comb forward in an attempt to disguise his cowlick.

bootleg cassettes even though I no longer have access to a tape player
alt: about 4/5 years old. The battery hasn't worked in about a year so it doesn't really function as a laptop anymore and it's slowed down a lot recently. That said I'll probably put up with it until the thing has properly shat itself.

I've still not started reading the bit of the book
which will make me less nervous about knowing nothing. I think my brain has buried itself in the sand

I got a bit of a question.
There is a big name brand who everyone here has heard of who really wants me, but the job doesn't really involve a team of the right people for the right job; I'd be doing all the work on my own. There is also the fact that its branches are all franchises and a lot of them have their own websites, which I would have no control over. Their corporate site and online identity, can really be shaped and moulded however I want, but I think that they need a team. Basiclly, they need a kick-ass agency and they've been screwed over. I think however good a job I do, with whatever budgets I have, I'll never be able to expand on my skills. Plus, because of all the franchie's individual sites, that side of things could seriously hurt my reputation... like if I say "Hay, I did this company's website" and they land on one of the 50 or soo franchie's websites, and of them being really bad, they'd put that down to me.

Could you not use the specific url?
And use the example of the other sites as how you understand the business world?

Yeah', I didn't really think along the lines of this until a recruiter today said that it can make or break me, with higher chances of breaking.

Sorry, "Should I go for it?".
Wage, which isn't a prime motivator to me, is still a good 50% more then what I was getting last week. Travel is a bit of a bitch though.

It's my mate's mum's, mine broke about a week before I had a load of assignments due in so she lent it to me. Remind me to wipe the internet history before I give it back.

No offence to you two, I'm only asking 'cus I'm querying.
You both use a computer heavily every day, wouldn't it be like a taxi driver using an 80s scoda? Surly all this time you spend waiting for things to load would mean a new computer (£250 or maybe even less) would be a good investment?
