Totally missed that part... but I've sent more texts than that already this morning and it's not even 8AM. Boggles the mind man.

From both directions. The last two or three months is probably the first time I've gone from measuring my usage in texts/month instead of months/text.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Too small, not enough pixels. My home desktop still isn't entirely satisfying[^] in that regard; but in all ways except DPI (something notionally budgeted as next years xmas gift for myself) it's well ahead of any fondleslab.
The only reason I've been texting as much as I have involves on ill adult, a second whose cell's voicemail is broken, and their kids who I'm not willing to risk putting on the spot with as bearers of bad news by calling the house phone when I don't know who'd pickup.

Gotcha. I think I'll send someone a text about this.

The only SMSs I send are to my parents (like really once in a while) only because they're the only people I know who own a phone, but don't use WhatsApp

That must mean I'm as old as your parents then.

Or at least as technologically impaired

Not really. I believe too much technology is a bad thing. I prefer to talk to people with voice.

That doesn't explain your excessive use of SMS

That's because men's bums are bigger than women's bums, so the pictures are proportionately bigger.

This doesn't hold true to TV shows we get over here from PommyLand. The women on the shows are about 3 pick handles across the arse.

It's always an odd feeling to type a password infront of other people. What about, if your boss stands behind and you must type your password? Ofcourse you can apply some techniques, like to type several wrong letters and correct later. But it seems also odd... can my boss mind about it?

Why don't you trust your boss?

As long as your password isn't "Death2Management" or some such you should be okay. Also make sure you have a password that you can actually type, not two fingers but with both hands...

If you are using a company workstation, what does it matter? The computer isn't yours anyway. Besides, I.T. can get into your workstation without your password.
If it's your personal computer, just say excuse me and block his view with your body while typing in your password. If you have the pointy haired boss[^], you can spell out the password out loud as you type it in and he still wouldn't get it.
It was broke, so I fixed it.

if you dont trust your boss, it is a clear signal that it is time to change the job.

When this type of stuff happens to me, I just lean forward on the keyboard to type the password. If your boss doesn't get the idea, then they are stupid; and we already know, you can't fix stupid.

When working together, the time when it would come up, either of us would unabashedly turn their heads.
True - he can get into anything - and I can get into a very lot of stuff - but your password should still be yours. It's not a lack of trust - it's courtesy. We share a number of very important resources and the password access. Yours - Mine - Ours.
When logged in with uid/pwd, as far as the computer's concerned, it's you. You take the blame for what happens. Sys Admin can always get into your account - but not logged in as you.
