Weekend

Time for some down time this weekend after a nice but busy week, with performance reviews and other things.

Yesterday morning I ran some errants in the morning, and went for a walk in Umstead Park afterwards. It wasn't as cold as last week and it was great to be outdoors.

I had lunch sitting on a rock overlooking the trail and a creek in the sun.

We saw Office Space, the movie, for the first time in years. Last time we saw it we were living in the Netherlands, when I was not so familiar with a typical U.S. office environment. It was even better this time, with so many famous quotes and scenes ("what is WRONG with you people?!").

When you return to work, don't forget to put a cover on your TPS reports...

Brilliant movie. I worked for IBM, and although in the Netherlands, some scenes looked almost painfully realistic. :-)

TPS reports actually do exist!

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TPS_report:

"A TPS report is a document used in software engineering, in particular by a Software Quality Assurance group or individual, that describes the testing procedures and the testing process.

The term TPS report has come to denote pointless busy work assigned by employers without doing anything productive for the company (See: TPS report (Office Space))"
