Not too bad being at another site for the morning, got to catch up with people I used to work with and it was a lot quieter there.
I've come back and also managed to get a handful of I think cherry tomatos to add to my dinner sandwiches, I hope they taste nice.
Come on end of the day, hurry up!
Haaaa ch 9 claiming "the weekly ordinary time earnings for full-time adults was $1888.80 in November 2023.๏ปฟ"
Lies, damned lies and statistics.
Can anyone explain to me why train aircon only seems to turn on half way through a journey? And it's a metro thing. Never noticed it on a vline.
Just tried out Spotify's new AI DJ feature. It started out pretty well.. I like the idea of the Ice-T sounding AI guy coming in to have a little chat and shuffle the music around. It first played 3 tracks from artists I like.. then he comes back and says "Now I'll mix things up with some of the latest hits" and starts playing fuckin Salena Gomez, Taylor Swift and some Ed Sheeran sounding guy I've never heard of. NOPE.
Also, out of curiosity I let the Taylor Swift song play for a bit because I hadn't heard any of her songs since Shake It Off and wanted to see what the big deal was. It was a song called Cruel Summer and it was some of the most generic pop ever. I'm not going to sit here and judge her whole catalogue off 45 seconds of 1 song though but if it's more like that, I'm not missing out on much.

Trying to think of epic songs to play on the big speakers later on. Evidence, Money for nothing, In the air tonight, School, Riders on the storm, Texas Flood, Das speigel etc
Got any more that will sound wicked on the surround sound? TIA
That's all I can think of right now lol ๐
Thanks. There's some good ones there except for Meatloaf. Never Meatloaf.
A few from me, not my usual 80โs stuff but would sound good.
