Steve,
I agree, since the weekend the 'stock' in the vending machine in
the canteen has been abismal..... plenty of ice-tea for those so
inclined but very little in the way of rolls and sandwiches. I
have come in at 23:00 every day this week to find three (and if I'm
really lucky) four items left on the carousel. last weekend ( the
bank holiday), most of the food was out of date by sunday.

PS: how about a change machine as well (assuming that there's
something worth buying of course)

| I think these machines are the overall responsibility of PM&S so why
don't you call their hotline in DECpark (I think the number's
7830-2424) and vent your spleen on somebody who might do something
about it?
Or alternatively you could vent your spleen into the machine and see if
anybody can tell the difference between spleen-content and iced tea?

| 900.4 | Flat tyre building mail. | KERNEL::FREKES | Olympic Banging Team Member | Wed Nov 20 1996 09:27 | 15 |
| Vent on.
Why is it we have to recieve a building mail telling us that someone
has a flat tyre.
This person should have registered their licence plate with reception,
so they knew who the car belonged to. If it is a visitor then he would
have signed in.
We should not have to receive junk mail. If this person could not be
bothered to register their car, then the words "Tough Luck" come to
mind.
For those of you who have not registered. Pull a finger out and get it
done.

| Let's say Steven that your horrid little car was off the road and you
had borrowed someone elses for the day. Would you bother registering
the different for one day number plate with reception. No, you
wouldn't. Building mails are put out as an extra service to be helpful. I'm
sorry if one mail has ruined your day.
Calm down.

| I got the building mail a day late, but as I informed recpetion
yesterday lunch time (and I wasn't the first) I was happy that the
unfortunate soul who had to change tyres in the rain knew about it.

PS. Steve, that really upset you didn't it....? :-}

| Steve,
5 steps to having a happier life:
1 Get yourself an ALL-IN-1 account (you can probably do this with
Exchange as well but as I haven't been migrated yet I can't
write the reply from that perspective).
2 Pull up an index of your unread mail using the filter "BM*"
3 See if any of the titles look interesting.
4 Select and delete _unread_ all the ones that don't.
5 Smile as you think to yourself that computers have just enriched
your life that little bit more :-)

Re. .7
You'll also need to get I.S. to set the flag on your account to
let you do this as I don't think it is set by default.
|
| 900.10 | will look into it | KERNEL::FREKES | Like a thief in the night | Fri Nov 22 1996 09:14 | 6 |
| Correct.
You are unable to delete unread mails. Not in my account anyway. But I
certainly will look into this added "feature"

| Here we go again I hear you all saying.
I would like to bring to the attention of whomever should be aware of
this, that there is a great gaping hole on the floor next to me desk.
This has been there for 6 months. All facilities have done place a
notice board, and traffic cones over it.
In short, I want the hole fixed not hidden!! Because whenever I or one
my group members trip, we almost break our necks.

Steve,
Firstly, lay off the ACID.
Secondly, I'm sure there's a "process" for holes in floors. Maybe you
should dig that out (not out of the hole).
Thirdly, contact your health and safety rep.
Fourth(and lastly), Deliberatly trip over the hole, break something
important and sue Digital for gross negligence(or some other legal
word)
Hth,
Chris

| Yeh, well! We've got a hole too!! Just outside our group in the
corridor. You may have all missed it because to keep it confidential
they put a CONFIDENTIAL waste bin it. However to keep up the tradition
(Or maybe some obscure H & S ruling) they have put a cone on it as
well.

I thought you were all moving buildings ?
The floors in Viables have been somewhat dubious for ages. I took
part in a floor survey - thanks to my special skills (Being very
fat) - which involved walking around and bouncing a bit to find
the floor panels in need to additional support. I think I broke
a few, myself. The floor panels are single sheets of chip or ply
board, which are broad enough to require support from floor jacks
underneath, in some cases.
Part of the problem with fixing this stuff is the hassle of getting
anyone to move out of the space for long enough to do the job.
My advice ? Tread carefully. Wait for the building move.
Speak to Jon, perhaps.
Andy/.

| Andy,
You should know by now that writing in this conference and speaking to
Jon are one and the same thing.
Here's my take on this: for the hole in the floor in the corridor in
G4 (Keith's reply) I understand that PM&S have had to order a new floor
box from the manufacturer and, because this is non-standard (what _is_
standard about Viables?) it is taking a long time to come through.
I can't explain the delay in fixing the floor in Comms (F3).
In both cases, PM&S are clearly the people whom you should be asking
(or venting your spleen at Steve). As I don't believe Maureen Keighley
(the new Manager who has taken over from Debbie Walsh) reads this
conference, why not call/mail/pop-round-and-see her?
Neither solution is particularly elegant but I suspect that they both
constitute less of a safety hazard than the hole they aim to cover.
Now if somebody were to trip over one of them and break something
vital.......
Jon
