:yotj:

Posted in the OSHA thread about a noew opportunity but got a response in 24h of submitting my interest in a new job. Applications close on xmas eve but I already have a call back.

I thought it was a generic email but the phone call from them mentioned that I just was natural in my cover letter and not a drone. I have a comfortable job so I literally wrote the thing drunk not giving a gently caress about corporate speak. I have a 3rd party experience as a contractor with them and detailed the ways I can fix specific things and it must have hit a mark.

Not really celebrating yet as I don't have the job and its the holiday season. But the vibe over the phone was super positive and wanting a face to face (requires travel) is a plus. Bonus is if I get this job I have a friend in that city close, and we can do stuff in the shed for real.

Unfortunately we dont have squirrels in Australia and Possums... well they're up there with Koalas for bad eating. Koalas allegedly taste so loving terrible that not even the aboriginal tribes used to eat the loving things!

I just scored a 'Smart' Airconditioner controller as everything in my house is old and doesn't have any form of remote access:



Actually very surprised it paired with my lovely old Teco with just a press of the original remote button. All functions supported.

Will be testing out the Geofencing poo poo tomorrow when I leave the house and see the logs whether or not it actually turned off when I left home and turned on on my designated GPS radius. I am eternally forgetting to turn the bedroom AC off so worth a try.

In the meantime, I'm port scanning it and tempted to tear it apart and see if it's just an ESP32 with fancy webapps.

EDIT: Seems to be part of Philips Hue products as far as the OS probe.

Yo, I got one of these in March because we have lovely in-wall hotel AC units and it's great.

Unfortunately the geofencing doesn't work too well, the app suspends in the background too quickly, even with battery saver turned off specifically for it. So, instead I use an IFTTT task to have it turn on and off based on whether or not I'm connected to my home wifi.

You are right on the geofencing! It borked out. Was hoping for 2 different zones - one to turn it on when X distance from home (obviously coming home from work), and the other for when I leave the house. Obviously I could set it to 'half way'.

The IFTTT idea seems doable though! Thanks for the tip!

We had a big theft of equipment last night. Of course on the part of site with no cameras.

First port of call as far as suspects? Me. Because I previously explained (and fixed) known access methods. gently caress off, I'm hungover. Boss was hinting that I kept a way in secret to steal poo poo (actually true but it's stupidly convoluded and impractical - requires a crane to the roof of warehouse on a site with guard gates)

lawyer up dude

Lawyering up over this is the least of my issues with the company at the moment. I'm :yotj: it soon. There is a running joke on site about blaming the least invovled person every time some goes to poo poo. When my name comes up (it's all in jest) I don't break stride and yell "gently caress you, gimme evidence"

On this occasion for info - I run the warehouse so technically anything in and out goes through me or my guys. A HUGE (dollar value) amout of small PCBs and solenoids have dissapeared. Easily pocketable or put in work toolbags.

It coincides with my current (off the books and highly sketchy) project with a manufacturer about reverse engineering the EEPROM in their gear so all service agents in Australia don't have to wait for boards to be sent back to China.

^ Saying that I am the most likely target rightfully. But as everyone at the office knows - Humphreys is at the pub or drunk at home at midday on days off, no chance to do anything cos legless.

The security cameras of my house and my neighbours house showing me farting around the yard will suffice.

they will surely attempt to sack you once they don't find any evidence it was you.

The weird thing is I have in writing 'we cannot afford to lose you over X people'. Still waiting for them to get fired before I'm on that block. Also I think it was in one of these chat threads I randomly got given CEOs keys to his Cobra and laid strips in the loading area.

EDIT: Sorry Queen Combat for hijacking your awesome 3D printing antics.

I might be mixing people, if so I'm happy it's not Queen. But also not happy for the person I'm confusing it with (over 12 beers in drowning a breakup)
