Blake Posted January 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 A mate of mine says "I need a job", I tell him I can ask at Pizza Express where I work as they're looking for people. He says "No a proper job". He thinks he higher than you but at the end of the day you're earning money and experience while he's just sitting on his arse all day.

Yeah! Hate people who do this. Also not looking forward to going back to work tonight after 2/3 months off due to ankle... Need the money bad though.

weirdoku Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 Lost my memory stick with all my assignment info on. Assignment is due in on the 23rd. f**kkkkk. The reason why I didn't have a hard copy (well I do of the actual report) but it's of a solidworks model and information for flow dynamics in ansys if that means anything to anyone so basically I was needing to go back and forth back and forth. Now i'm essentially f**ked as I need to draw a semi-trailer in solidworks, model it all up and gert it onto anysys. f**king noooooooo where is my pink memory stickkkk Why you no have multiple copies of important files? When I was in uni, any work I did to do I made multiple copies of. One on my computer hard disk, one on my external hard disk, one on my memory stick and if the file size is small enough I'll attach to an email and send it to myself. I've even uploaded my dissertation to file a hosting site (privately) and wrote down the URL just in case something fails. It's not like you have a shortage on storage space these days.

isitafox Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 Just spent the past hour shortening the hoses on my rear brake then another half hour trying to bleed it, then realised I'm fitting a new piston next week so there was no point! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harmertrials Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 That's nothing George yesterday I woke up at 3:30. My sleeping pattern is horrendous and i'm shit at sorting it out.I set 18 (no joke) alarms this morning and I still slept through them all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trialsiain Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 Some sort of electric shock alarm system would work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 I found randomly changing the alarm noise worked for me. If I used the same one for too long I'd get used to it and be able to sleep through it, but if it was different it seemed to make me go "WTF" more and actually wake up. Main thing that sorted that kind of problem out was just battering my sleep cycle into submission though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Rainbird Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 Different sounds work well. If even that won't cut it, buy one of those alarms that runs around the room or set one that makes you answer a load of questions or something - anything that doesn't just let you hit snooze/off. I've got the "alarm clock plus" app on my phone which fires random maths questions of whatever difficulty you set at you which means the alarm is going for long enough to wake you up and your brain gets working. Mine defaults maths so I cranked up the difficulty and it works a treat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamR28 Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 Haha, that's brilliant! I'm gonna search for that. Sounds a bit like my stag do (slightly 'in' joke there, but I'm willing to expand on if required...). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haydon_peter Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 A guy I used to work with uses a similar app but he has to get out of bed and scan a QR Code stuck on the wall in his bathroom to stop the alarm 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're meant to be really good That sounds interesting.... We have things called alarms nowadays I do the same as jack and just sleep through them :l I find having a reason to get up is pretty useful. Plan something you lazy bum. Tuesday is my day off college, I have one other friend who is also off but he was busy today I did set my alarm for ten but I slept through it. I told work that I was free all day tuesdays but they didn't put me down for any extra shifts which is lame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD™ Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 A guy I used to work with uses a similar app but he has to get out of bed and scan a QR Code stuck on the wall in his bathroom to stop the alarm This needs to be amalgamated with Lukes one. A different QR code in each room of the house, and it chooses a random one each morning. I only say that because I know if it was in the same place every day I'd just go there and back on autopilot!

Luke Rainbird Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 I'd just stick the QR code next to my bed to be honest It's a cool idea though, probably wouldn't be too bad to work out either. In fact, given the way image recognition tech has come in recent years I can't see it being long before you could just go anywhere and use the camera to show you're in room X/can see the car/whatever rather than necessarily a QR code or similar, or just using GPS tech to shut off the alarm once you've moved Ym/etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
