What I do…

November 19, 2007 by LostRambler

I’m sitting at work waiting for a script I wrote to finish running. I need to insert certain values into database records based on a text file that our customer sent us. Without giving anything away, here’s what I’m looking at at the moment.

There are several hundred of these lines yet to appear, and they’re appearing about once a second.  I need to hang around and watch it in case there are problems…

I’d actually rather be at home changing nappies.

    You mean I’ve waited a week since the last post for this? I want a refund….

    At least I got paid for looking at that.
