Another great movie

Today is the release of „The Dictator“ which I watched after work. I also bought some nachos with cheese dip for the show today. Sadly the dip was extremly sour so it wasn’t fun to eat it. Therefor the movie was pure fun. It started with the birth of the dictator and a fast review of his life which was totally funny to view. The best gag in this movie is when Aladeen, the dictator, sits with his old weapon engineer and 2 american people in a helicopter. First Aladeen overacts as pure fan of america and then those 2 talkin in there native language. You really have to see it because it will make you laugh from the beginning to the end. It’s good to understand and the outtakes at the end nearly top the whole movie.

So my advice for you: Watch it!

Great jokes and you may find Osama Bin Laden.

Sightseeing during working hours

One advantage of my placement is that I see a lot of Northern Ireland’s landscape. On Monday, I met with Matt in the office and we started at about 10 o’clock. We had to visit 3 different hospitals and initially a company, called AMI, too. AMI is a company, which cares about WEEE (Waste Electronic and Electrical Equipment) and ITAD (IT Asset Disposal) in Northern Ireland. Matt forgot, that he arranged an appointment for Tuesday, so he pulled around the steering whell within the roundabout and continued to the first hospital. We had some hard drives containing patient data, which had to be send to IBM for replacement. So these hard drives had to be erased on a very secure way, i.e. going through two huge magnets for three times. I think this is a very rude way of erasing a hard drive, because on Tuesday, it sounded like a yelping dog or something similar. Arriving at the first hospital, we had to calibrate an EIZO screen which is used at a diagnostics station, i.e. doctors view MRTs and other electronical patient pictures, so the screens have to be fully functional. This took about half an hour. Afterwards we got to the second hospital. There was a problem with an user account, but it was already solved when we arrived, so this job didn’t take long. In the third hospital, there was a hard drive which had to be replaced, which took maybe 15 minutes. I think during the whole day, we covered about 300km. Driving in the car took definetly longer than fixing the problems, but as I already said..sightseeing during working hours is not too bad. We arrived at 5 o’clock in the office and there, Oli waited for me because we had to get some groceries for lunch. We made some chilli con carne for lunch and it was very tasty.
