Work Query

Been with this current company for sometime, but team meeting today and the boss says that if we don't perform its three strikes and were out. Company server not working and has been down since May so were practically working off memory sticks . We've produced the work to our programme but keep hearing the same old spiel from the boss. What are your thoughts

You're lucky. We had to make do with 80 column punch cards and one mainframe run on a Thursday night.

You're lucky. We had to make do with difference engine. Oh, and MF as a moderator.

When I first joined BG I used help to run the department Novelle Netware 3.1 on a 386 'server' .... we were one of the few departments at that time in BG that even had a local network. Fun days

I had a callout in the early 90s saying the server goes down every day at 5pm and also the server is bricked up behind a wall. It turned out to be Netware 286 with a non-dedicated server (using a shared workstation)

They can pay you, but they cannot afford a server?
Okay......
Running off memory sticks? Can you client actually afford those or do you have to supply your own?
Either way I call bulls***

They pay him in memory sticks ... his rate is 3 sticks a day, but it's outside IR35 so he's happy
