Epic story

We were sitting at a table in a bar, and Nick decides to tell a story from freshman year involving "Big Rob." Literally just as he mentioned Big Rob in his story, the real-life Big Rob walked down the stairs by our table and introduced himself in front of us. Nick's facial expression and reaction was beyond hilarious after he saw Big Rob suddenly appear out of nowhere right after he mentioned him during his story. This is like something that you wouldn't believe unless you were actually there when it happened.

Back to school thoughts

During our drive to Ithaca, we encountered several toll booths. When the toll amount required change, we would pay part of the change in pennies. We observed that female toll collectors would always count the pennies before letting us move along, whereas male toll collectors would look at the handful of pennies and let us proceed without counting them.

When buying textbooks from an online source like Amazon, it probably doesn't matter much if a seller is "just launched" or a veteran seller. If the new seller plans to continue selling from their account for years to come, then they would probably want to ensure their first few ratings are good in order to build a solid reputation as a seller. This applies only if the seller plans on selling more items in the future.

Wrapping things up

Today is my last day of work. Some statistics:

• Helpdesk tickets 3 weeks ago: 16
• Helpdesk tickets 2 weeks ago: 18
• Helpdesk tickets last week: 19
• Helpdesk tickets this week: 40

Yes, this last week was pretty busy. I'd like to thank everyone who helped me learn stuff and made me feel welcome during the summer. It means a lot to me.

Also, saying farewell is one thing that I don't like to do at all. I suppose most things in life aren't static.
