Lawsuits et al

Tuesday, May 23rd, 2006

It's been some time since I was notified that I will be sued by my previous employer. The reason was that I didn't want to sign contract on theirs conditions. Well now.. if they decide to move in this direction - I thought - then I won't sign the contract at all. And notified the company's director about my decision. Since then - silence. Not even a message "OK, we got your messsage".

Nothing. At. All.

The director turned out to be a complete coward it seems. Sure it was kind of natural to think it's easy to attack a foreigner who don't really knows much about law system of the country, let alone the language (and believe me, even my Japanese friends had problem understanding contact I got from the other side before reading it twice). So he decided to do just that - attack me with absolutely lunatic reasons to suit and see what happens. When I successfully fought back he just disappeared. Without a single word. No lawsuit, no nothing. Just bad aftertaste.

Oh well. Good riddance. I'm glad it's all finished. And I kind of feel sorry for the guy.. Leading a company with an attitude like that must not be easy.

.Mac down and "web-sites made easy"

Tuesday, May 23rd, 2006

I'm a paid subscriber of .Mac service and although I think it IS expensive for what it offers (or at least for what I use it for which is most synchronization of my Macs at home and at work), I do like it.

But man.. I was trying to up a new page to my photo gallery at .Mac and I was unable to do it (unable to read iDisk quota). So I tried to load www.mac.com and the f**king site is down. I guess the server admin is out for lunch or something, or just having some very exciting intercourse with some hot chick right next to a router so who the f**k cares about zillion red lamps and unplugged wires :/


.Mac is down

To hell with it. They'll definitely fix the fucking thing by tomorrow by I needed it today!
