Meeting shenanigans

Just a random conversation during one of my team's daily meetings at work:

Colleague: We have a problem with the *censored* server.
Boss: Where is that server located?
Colleague: It's in the Intellectual Property room, on the 2nd floor of the Reliability building.
Me: Yeah, you know that place? It's right next to the office of Lost Causes.

We always have lots of fun during our daily meetings.

I signed!

a nice John HancockThis morning, after almost 2 weeks of negociations between HR, my boss and I, I signed my employment contract at Valeo Thermal Systems Japan.

I'm hired for 3 years in a position slightly higher than I had before. I'm staying on the same project and on the same team but I'll drop all the basely technical stuff and focus entirely on functional definitions and architecture of the application we manage.

It's a big relief for me as I will not have that pending visa expiration constantly nagging me and I can start thinking of my longterm life here in Japan.

It also means I'm gonna start paying taxes... It sucks... I guess the universe has to balance itself, to each action a reaction.
