Christchurch Treehouse of Awesome-Where everyone knows your name

[Pyromanik]

Also: Fucking lol at 1-day, those s5's they sold are all non LTE versions and they advertised 4g/lte, now everyone is pissed with them. Unsurprising

Hahaha, fucking 1-day scumbags. They are constantly selling the S3 using photos of the S4 and when they sell refurbished S2 units they use S3 photos. All their hoodies are counterfeit fakes as well as their shirts.

In other news. I'm ramping up my move. CV will be finished tonight and jobs will be applied for. If there are any jobs I like the sound of in Chch I'll be applying for them because I've had it with this piss bucket town. Nothing but bad memories here for me. Anyone got a temp. Spare room in the shakey city if I was to be successful in gaining employment in Chch?

Plato Creative, tell them I sent you (use real name, duh). Just force your way in there with your oodles of awesome.
Team are all awesome balls, and I think you'd get on so well with Ryano.
Bossman hires on personality, not necessarilly skill (you've got oodles of the latter, so it's all the former tbh).

That means that everyone is cool, not a single bitch in the crowd.

But that of course means that this kind of work is what you're after. I know after I moved here the fucking very last thing I wanted to do was write another line of CSS.
Dunno why, I used to love the fuck out of it.

But I dunno much about design, no matter the dicipline it's all pretty pictures to me (unless it's product design or the like).

Oh well! xD

GL chap.

PS. dat rep.

Thanks Pyro.

I'll drop them an email, see if they're looking for a designer. I'm not a coder by any stretch.

[Pyromanik]

Yeah it's 'full service' (a term which always cracked me up, feel free to tell them, they're all up for a bit of character flair).

So there's basically a design team and a web team, a fair bit of interaction (we're all one family) but almost operate independently (art direction etc).

Also, just said we. Haven't worked there for 5 months :<
Being single, you'll fit in well. Not that you have to be single, just that opportunities to pick up hot irish women while out on the lash during/after friday night drinks with the team is high.

tl;dr, I couldn't recommend a better place to work, no matter the dicipline.

What about the series 8 plasma..... 

won't be wall mounting, HATE wall mounts!

Someone asked about plasmas a few months ago.

Plasmas have to have a glass front, and for whatever reason it can't be matte. So it's shiny.

In anything but absolute darkness you will see a reflection of yourself, and you might say on here now "oh yeah but I'm going to point it away from the windows" or "it can't be that bad"

It is.

Don't buy a plasma.

Growler would want to see a reflection of himself. He'll stand all day with his shirt off.

You've now sold this place so well that I will cry if I don't get "YES, WORK FOR US" in response.

Will have to bust out the big guns.

Dick pic resume it is.

Lol imagine that, we go to growlers house, he says "check out my tv" and it's just a mirror

"One good looking mother fucker"

[Retardobot]

"Look, it's the porn channel, 24/7"

[Growler]

You guys know me so well....

But don't lie now, you'd stand in front with me naked and admire it as much as I do....

[Growler]

Looking at building outdoor fire/pizza oven. So much fun buying a new house and putting lots of new shit in it...

LOOK AT MY BUTTHOLE. LOOK AS I SPREAD IT FOR YOU. IT WINKS AT YOU!

Growler in the mirror ^

. Anyone got a temp. Spare room in the shakey city if I was to be successful in gaining employment in Chch?

Pretty sure there would be room for you to move in with us, 3 way gay house of super fun!

[Retardobot]

I have friends in Dunsandel that have offered a temp. room, but they are newly weds and I'd rather not live (no matter how short a stay) with newly weds. If I found a place to crash or live with who were tight butthole bros then that'd be top shelf stiffie times.

My skills include:

Playing the banjo with my junk.
Ordering pizza with my junk.
Jacking cars with my junk.
Putting my junk in trunks.
And avoiding eye contact.

Anyway, I thought you were in Kapiti, Lias? Are you working in Chch and sending money home?

[Lias]

Staffing issues are bullshit, they're all champions.
Talk to a personable human who isn't just reading from a fucking screen when you call.

After quite a bit of negative press over at GeekZone, Snap have _publicly admitted_ they are having issues with staffing levels and support wait times.

...
Apologies for any issues - we've working as quickly as possible to get a number of CSRs on-board so that the call times get back to much more acceptable levels.

Cheers
Ralph

Overall yes I do think snap are pretty cool guys, and have done great things, but they are not bloody perfect!

We're out in the 'goon (Rangiora) which is ~25kms' north of Chch (Dunsandel is like ~45km south of Chch)

It's xsannz's call cos his house, but I've met you, and know that your my kind of raging sexy times super fun bro so I vote yes :-)

The main skill you will require will be playing with xsannz's junk, wearing a gimp suit, and of course avoiding eye contact, so I think we could be onto a winner here.

Yeah pretty much. #immigrantstyles

[Retardobot]

It's all hypothetical at the moment. But I like chch and hate Palmerston North.

So i'm willing the universe to make things happen.

[Xsannz]

I'd get the Sammy personally. Wall mount yo

Need to steal crimping tools from someone to crimp an rj45 to an rj11 >__< and figure out what pair adsl uses here, think it's outer

i still have the tools and outer pairs, unless tech who wired it was muppet.  then it could be the middle two and thus why a splitter is needed if you got phone on.

Hmmmm i could be persuaded to take in another stray, Lias has gotten lazy with his reach arounds, and keeps trying to burn the house down by leaving the oven on.

and while your willing on the universe ask it why it hasn't gotten back to me about getting me laid

[Xsannz]

  :)mmm sexy new toys to play with, Just got my S5 and the new Gear 2 watch......

I'll be your wingman. We'll get your dick wet in know time.

You just have to be an over confident asshole, and girls will throw their vaginas at you.

Makes sense, could I borrow them/your time? Splitter is used at the moment, haven't tried without tbh

Oh sweet, prefer nexus 5 tbh, but I like the gear 2

So here's the thing... my standards since separation seem to have gone up. I seem to only be keen on chicks that have a standard of upkeep themselves, and although I don't mind the odd drink here and there, I'm steering clear of the chicks that will binge every weekend, all weekend.

Why must I be so fussy at this age, when the pool of options is steadily decreasing!!?
