Twitter Weekly Updates for 2011-08-15
- The company I work for is looking for an office manager. Do you know anyone who might fit? http://bit.ly/pAEQSt (PDF, sorry) #
- Utilize: Please don't use this word in resumes or cover letters. You almost always mean "use". It's an easy way to filter applications. #
- .@neilhimself and @amandapalmer in Vancouver, small theatre, Nov 9th http://ow.ly/1vyRHq An evening to be full of awesome. #
- What's burning on Broadway this morning? #YVR #
- Anybody heard from @JonJennings recently? #
- I just got streetviewed #
- Messing with heads again. #
- Put these in order, from most likely to least: Death by icicle, death by lightning, death by shark #workplaceconversationsrunamok #
- OK, work productivity has gone off the rails. Time to head home, fight the good fight another day. #
- UBC Cinnamon buns aren't really *all that* but I love the crunchy corner ones #
- Brakes. Struts. Ball joints. Ouch. #
- I wonder how VPD tweeting names, DOB, and addx of #vanriot looters would fly? http://bit.ly/ooNUGg #
- (info in last tweet via @ColleenCoplick and @thenetworkhub) #
- Apparently my internet doppelganger got a girl pregnant. *She* signed up with Similac … using his wrong email addx. :headdesk: #
- Rayshuna is her name. Sadly Google isn't providing me with any help. Where are these star-crossed email-incapable lovers? #
- Wait, John Horgan is saying politicians shouldn't be making energy decisions, experts should? Bill van der Zalm is going to be calling! #otc #
- I mean, talk about mixed messaging. The BCNDP thinks experts should be guiding energy policy but NOT economic policy? How confusing… #otc #
- The economist "@joshlavoie"… #
- Damnit, has Tweetdeck changed? I've been DM'ing instead of @'ing all day long. #
- Dear @bcaa: You know how last wknd I went in and checked that my membership and opt ins were paid b/c my cc had expired? And you said yes? #
- That was great @bcaa. But you know that today, the day my opt ins and membership expires, I get a letter telling me that my cc didn't work? #
- That kinda sucks @bcaa. Because not only did I make sure the cc info was updated, but then I verified IN PERSON that was good. #
- And now that I'm home and opened my mail, dear @bcaa, your call centre is closed. Despite all my efforts to give you $$, I now am faced … #
- … with no optional insurance or road assist membership. Tell me, dear @bcaa, what I, as your customer, should have done differently. #
- Aidan is playing with his dinkies in the living room, singing "Paradise City". #parentingwin #
- Wow, @awsamuel got a rough ride from #OTC talkback callers on "WiFi in BC Parks". Undeservedly IMHO. I don't see need to put it in, but … #
- … I could see how it might draw more visitors. Plus, it doesn't need to be *free*; it could operate on a cost-recovery basis. #
- Frankly I would have preferred more campground wifi on our roadtrip, particularly in the more isolated (no cell signal) places! #
- Buy a Blizzard Day at DQ with proceeds to the Children's Hospital http://instagr.am/p/J_xjc/ #
- Car's in the shop, but today's Buy a Blizzard Day! What to do? Used @car2goVancouver! Picked up car 1/2 block away, parked in front. Nice! #
- Driving the little Smart car was interesting. Didn't feel like a small car, felt like a Golf. Shifted like shit, though. #
- We bought the boys sleeping bags before our trip and they slept in them before, during, and since. It hasn't been too warm for them either. #
- It's been the un-summer. #
- Anyone on UBC campus want to join me at Vera's today for lunch? @polarisdotca? @_Reinette? @bluefinch604? Others? #
- Body count in the office is down to two. Will this mean increased productivity … or the opposite? #VerasComa #
- PSA: "Rate of speed" probably doesn't mean what you think it does. Try "speed" instead. #plainspeakingisbetter #
- I'm impressed how many of you Tweeps know that "rate of speed" = acceleration. Clearly you are much smarter (and better looking) than most. #
- The only shocking thing about this Rob Ford thing is that people are shocked by it. Really? *Really*!? #
- Suppertime http://t.co/coIhmpQ #
- Kites at Garry Point Park http://t.co/HTtqlzT #

- I quite like this photo that @eastcoastgranpa took of Aidan and me at Arches National Park #floydsgobad http://t.co/T7hguMQ #
- Kids are funny. Quinlan loves to eat "hotmeal" and "raisin brown". #
- Just had to do a factory restore of our laptop. Backed up the HDD first, but ugh, now to reinstall all the programs. #FirstWorldProblems #
- After factory install, now up to 86 _critical_ updates required for Windows. A.R.G.H. #
- Will Stroet at Van Dusen Gardens http://t.co/3aOMsW3 #
- There's @BobsandLoLo off to the side, talking to fans, going on stage at 2 pm! #
- Going on a musical adventure with @bobsandlolo http://t.co/9TwFyBx #
- Some random girl has run up and is now holding Aidan's hand, dancing in front of the stage. Uh, what? #
