Thursday

Thursday I was at “Computer Doctor” again. We had to install Windows XP on 3 desktop-pcs, installing the drivers and updates. “JJ” and Dustin started and everything went fine. I – of cause – got the broken one.

So I got another one to do a little patchwork and who would have thought: didn’t work! So a third and a forth. When we finished the task we sat down with Peter, drank a coffee and talked about some projects. There are too many projects to complete them all but because of this we can decide which one interests us the most and then do it.

The projects are from designing a logo over build up a website to configuring VLANs on a cisco router. The best part is, that Peter gives us the time we need. In the afternoon Mark showed us how to disassemble Laptops and change the displays.

All in all a nice day again.

We have a new challenge

hi,

We have a second company in the office and we help us each other. The second company is a fashion agency. Karen gave us the challenge to build up a new website for the company. The new website should only inform the customers about the brands, events and the agency. Also the website doesn’t become an online shop. First we have to create a very good layout for the website and also a good structure is important. We must note the design for the logo of the agency (Corporate Identity). We had to implement a password protected area where we had to implement a blog. We will build up the website of the topics are important for the seo.

I find this is a interesting challenge.

Today was just a normal day.

I woke up at 7.00, go to the kitchen to eat my daly muesli anf than go in the bathroom. After watching some BBC news in TV I was going to work. Arriving the Odessy Center I enter the bus, wihtout have to wait.

At work I run some Jmeter tests, every test takes nearly 2 houres. In the meantime i chat to Stephen, I have introduce in an former blog entry.

Now i`ll drink some tea and build an new test wiht Stephen to specify the problem we`ve found in the morning.

Maybe i`ll write in the afternoon a secondy entry, be prepared.

what else to tell

hey there, long time no see
i noticed i couldnt just keep you up to date with work related stuff and get my three posts a week so im going to write something else. Okay, i could just write down every single task im doing but that wouldnt be a fine read at all.

so… hmm… lets see… what is new
we where shopping yesterday and bought a lot of meat 🙂 but mostly chicken.

The traffic lights are a thing for themselves. The red traffic lights for pedestrians are permenant it seems. So nobody cares at all. Look left, then right, then just walk. Otherwise i could easly spend five minutes just crossing the street.

ah whats interesting too is: you can spend LOADS of money just ordering food. I wanted to order a pizza – guess what 22€ for a normal pizza. All right, i passed on that one.

so, see you tomorrow

the week after the weekend

yeah, you couldn’t read much from me lately.
I still work at the same place. The task i’m busy with at the moment is the SEO of the homepage. SEO means search enginge optimization and is to get the page on the first page of google. We have a meeting once a day, where all of us sit together and dicuss how we can populate our page and get more traffic on it without spending a cent (besides the cost for the internet access 😉 ). No cost is also the policy for the workers here. I have 5 co-workers here which are all unpaid students. Three from spain who can hardly speak any english. It’s sometimes hard to understand them, a chinese who speaks english very well and then there is Virginia from the other FSZ class. All tasks here are those of a webdeveloper. Not exactly the type of work i hoped for, but it’s interisting too.

the private part is kept a secret on purpose. I’m not the guy who needs or wants to tell the world what I am doing the whole day. And because this blog is found in google i keep that part for me

best regards and have a nice friday

Jonas – Some birthdays again-.-

Hi there everybody,

time for me to write something once again. This week is almost at its end so I will give you a short summary of what I have done so far. After the issue with the printer(read earlier entry) I began to watch some tutorials for image editing programs. Once again I discovered a field where I never want to work in(I like designs like on  Mateuszs website :D). But for the time being I will endure it and try to learn as much as possible. Yesterday I designed a little birthday gift card for my best friend and roommate Florian(but more on that later). Because I used the programs I am learning right now(Paint.net and Adobe InDesign CS5) it was killing two birds with one stone. Today I was so tired that I missed my stop and drove all the way to the airport and back to my company(40mins late-.-). However I am motivated to survive this day and enjoy the sun which came out right now.
