Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 27-9-2017: Searching for Engines

Ha!

You’ve possibly worked out I’m something of a Mac fan, over the years.

Turning it into the tech fan’s equivalent of football thuggery.

And meant seeing historical footage of former Microsoft CEO, Bill Gates, bigging up the Mac platform something to see.



Not something that would happen, these days, I think.

He’d not even get an iPhone.

Not ON iPhone.

As it turns out, though?

He has bought an Android job.


Which probably tells you what he thinks of Windows phones … !

~≈Ê≈~

On top of all that … ?

I’m happy at work.   No, really.

I’m happy at work.   But HAVE had the occasional issue: where the hours go up and down.

Which is why I’m happy I’ve got tomorrow off.

It meant that, should someone at a local taxi firm suddenly want to interview me for a call centre agent job, they can.

It’s at eight in the evening: tomorrow!

Nervous doesn’t even START!

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 7-12-2016




Oh, that’s another sad piece of news.

Actor, Peter Vaughan, has died: at the age of 93.

Although he’s best known — these days — for playing playing Aemon Targaryen in Game of Thrones, I grew up watching both Porridge, where he played Genial Harry Grout, and Charlie Johnson, in the first two series of Citizen Smith.

Frankly?

I think he’s going to be much missed.

The Daily Teaser — 21-3-2016: Twiddly Twiddly Twitter … !

You know … I think I’ve had a bad night … !

At least, going by the way I feel, right now.

Most mornings?

I’m up, about and ready to go.

This morning?

Well, if I wasn’t working I probably would’ve gone back to sleep!

Oh, well … 

Onwards and upwards … !
