2 done, a whole lot to go

Song of the day:
Foo Fighters - See you
Long day again, but at least it was somewhat productive today, with 2 entire sets done; only 1340983413 million to go until end of next week. \o/
Our senior test engineer - a very funny guy from Rome, Italy, who's always smiling, smirking or laughing .. if he isn't frowning over the ridiculous bugs - actually called us all to his desk today to show us some feedback sheet from the customer that pretty much said we pwnd their bugs, and we pwnd them good. He also keeps referring to all of us as "experienced testers" .. considering that the two girls have been working as testers for quite some time already and I've only been doing it for the second time now, I feel a bit overwhelmed by that kind of title; I guess that should keep me motivated to work on a high level and have high expectations of myself. Motivation psychology at its best. What a sneaky bastard... :)

Had a great bug at work today though, when going through the calculator applet. The device actually tried telling me that
999,999,999,999 ^ 999 = 0
Even a total math loser like me could tell something was "a bit off" there. But even for the math genius inside the device who calculated that, it was impossible to divide by zero; which was very reassuring. ;)

Anyways, time to slack off a bit, grab the left-overs of yesterday's snacks and settle for a couple of episodes of Lost again, before it gets as late as it did yesterday.

Ta-taa.
