You look good, perfectly fine for a Helpdesk role. It looks like you care about the job and are taking it seriously. Sure, a simple tie would take it up a notch but I wouldn't consider it mandatory. Also, the belt looks odd, like it's too long perhaps? The belt should go counter clockwise with the tail extending a few inches past the first loop on your left side pointing towards the back. Usually a belt size is a couple inches more than your pant waist size. For example I wear a 36" pant and 38" belt.

Good luck with you're interview!

I second that, been using olt for years now and it's super affordable and reliable. Not the cleanest interface though

Literally no, read it again: OP

  • Was asleep
  • was woken by wife and
  • took picture

Wife didn't need to take the picture, she woke OP to take the picture

Am I the only one who sees "Shawn Fain" and immediately thinks about Sinn Féin and The Troubles?

I disagree with you, but not because I'm a particular fan but because I think trucks are meant to do a job and not be any kind of showpiece or daily errand-runner. To me, a truck should be large and capable and only used when those capabilities are needed.

Honestly, the current consumer electric trucks are silly because their performance envelope is very small compared to their price. They are too expensive and heavy (in lithium and energy consumption) to make sense as a grocery getter and they are too limited to actually haul a real load or take a trailer camping.

I applaud the effort and I do think the F-150 is cool and represents solid progress in the state of the art, but I think the most efficient and environmental option is to keep a smaller efficient electric sedan for most routine driving and maintain an older large diesel truck for when it's needed. No need to build new iron, there's plenty of good trucks that can be kept on the road with TLC.

There are also industrial electric and hybrid (turbine-electric) trucks which are amazing, but we're talking multi million dollar specialty vehicles.

The confusing part of the synopsis is how they awkwardly cut it at "no tools"and went on to list "or set of tools that is supplied with the product or spare part, or basic tools"

It's actually a list of the 3 valid ways to replace a battery under the law:

  • With no tools (eg pop off cover)
  • With a set of tools that is supplied with the product or spare part (special but included)
  • With basic tools (common screwdriver, etc)

So, yes a robust waterproof screwed-in cover should be totally fine.

I agree with your perspective. FYI - something with many varieties "runs the gamut." A gambit is a ploy or strategy, a gamut is a spectrum of values.

Is that the first AOL disc? I used to get dozens in the mail

I admit I was delighted with that episode!

You have to appreciate the resilience of the design, though, it says the probe has an automatic reset every few months so it will hopefully recover in October when the next reset occurs
