I was actually able to find an internet cafe in Utah, woohoo! Well, my remote access account with work kinda worked. I could get to internal stuff, but I couldn't get web access. I wish I had installed Netzero on my laptop. That would have saved alot of trouble. So now I can't even check my Hotmail. It's either a problem with this computer or with Hotmail. I can access the site, but I can't open any messages. It's kind of annoying especially when this costs $6 an hour. Well, I've only been here a half hour so we shall see.
Good news! I get to go home tomorrow instead of Friday. Anyways, Utah ended up being alot cooler than I expected. The mountains here are pretty big. I should have packed my snow stuff. I could have gone snowboarding one day this week. I should have also brought my camera. I didn't this time cuz I knew I was coming back, but I don't think the snow will be on the mountains by that time. Anyways, despite the fruitless trip, I did learn some stuff so that was good. I also got a nice hotel room with a great view, so it wasn't a total waste. I think the biggest bummer of the trip was I would have been here on my birthday. Nothing sucks more than being on travel for work on your birthday. I know cuz that's exactly what happened to me last year. I almost quit after that trip because it was such a waste of my time. Instead, I just switched jobs, hee hee. After that trip was probably the most up front I had ever been with management. I told them that going to trade shows was a waste of the company's money and resources and I listed all these reasons why. They agreed, but the real scheme was so they wouldn't send me to do sales stuff anymore. I didn't become an engineer to sell product. Make the suits go do that stuff or at least pay me what the suits make to do it for them. Anyways, they stopped sending me to shows after that. Anyways, more good news is I should be getting engineering help on my project. That is much needed. I'm glad my management noticed. I was wondering how I was going to do everything by myself. Now I only have to do half of it, I hope, ha ha.
Hmm, Hotmail still doesn't work. I'll have to ask the guy who works here.
