I'm trying! Apache is installed and running smoothly, I've started using it for image storage but my FTP won't connect to the HostOnce servers for this to take effect. I'm working on installing an FTP server but I'm not going to let that take up so much of my time. I really did want to make updates to this site. I'm hugely enjoying myself though, I showed my parents the Apache server placeholder last night and they had no idea what was so exciting about it. I've since removed it but here's the URL http://av1.servehttp.com. Of course this means updates take effect immediately rather than once I can get HostOnce to accept FTP logon requests which sometimes takes days. Never use them. In fact if you're looking for a good host, try --link removed--. They're really great (i was lying). Anyhow, work's been really hard. I had to negotiate a 30% raise in August to convince myself it was worth staying and to convince the office manager that I was going to leave if I didn't get it and she knows the department would fall apart if I left. The only other person there who knows the department is leaving December 1st on maternity leave and there are two new people for us to train before she leaves. Then, our quality control person is pregnant as well and will be leaving next April. Our Production person left last April, a job for which we only just found someone (she'll be starting October 4th), and my supervisor moved to Arizona to work remotely last June which has been a disaster. It's really been a mess and all the extra work tends to fall on me because of the position I am in the line of job processing, my "fearless" attitude toward computers, and the position of my desk in the office. Somehow, these factors force all the work to end up in piles on my desk. And on top of it, my very outspoken (and rude) coworker is telling people that I don't ever eat and that I like to starve myself. I don't know what she knows or really thinks but I'm skinny and she's not and it seems to be a cause for argument whenever we have parties. Especially since this whole Mary Kate Olson thing, everyone's been much more apt to look for someone to call anorexic. Someone brought in magazines about it when it all started to come out and it's been this way ever since. News and gossip travels quickly in that office. There are only 35 or so people there and all be 3 are women.
