    This is what happens when you work at a Network Operations Centre. We run a private cloud, so there's always something to be tended to.

    It's not the worst thing in the world (it is close), but I basically have to tap out of life as a whole for three weeks while on this rotation. Boo.

    Know exactly how you feel.
    In the meanwhile, get as many certifications ( company paid) as possible and maintain a living resume.
    Restructuring happens......

    Have you done a Speedtest on your internet? I wonder how fast it is. Good deal. Just make sure you call again in a year.

    Edit: just checked. That internet plan is $134.99 per month alone and $144.99 + tax with modem rental. That's what Rogers does. They keep giving these promotions and upping the package. I was in that boat 2 years ago. Offered me a great deal with internet, Cable TV and Shomi. Went up each year dramatically after that.

    Thought it would be. Too small. Which one did you test drive, S, SV or SR? Is there a Honda Fit manual? Or how about the fiesta?
    Or impreza?

    I drove the base model S. No AC, no power anything. I would only ever look at that one because the price and I would never spend any more on a Micra. I hoped it would be fun..... Nope.

    Looking at a loaded GX 3 sedan now. The extra $$$ would definitely blbe worth it.

    Yep. I even qualify for graduate discount (-$500) and the loyalty. That's helps. I could use that to offset accessorie OEM rims.

    :18 GX with comfort + convenience in red MT.
    I can keep my newish winters as well.

    Don't know yet. Looks good though.

    I like driving too much to consider shit like the Micra.... So crap.

    If you get a brand new one are you going to mod it like your current one? Or just wheels and tint?




    To start. Haha.
