Travel to the Mountain (Time Zone)

I'm in Phoenix again for a few days this week. All and all a very boring trip, but then again I am a boring guy so that is to be expected.

Thankfully, Boeing's incompetence with their own hardware means that I am going to get to come home two days earlier. They spent about 7 hours today trying to determine why the helicopters software would reboot every minute or so. Boring for me just sitting their hoping it would come back up, but entertaining from the point of view of watching them stand around it scratching their heads and mumbling about how "I've never seen it do this". It was like watching frustrated monkeys trying to get to a banana that was just out reach.

The finally gave up around 6:30 pm tonight. And they did not have high hopes for tomorrow either, so we are heading home rather than waste any more money. Sigh...gotta love this government work.

Man, sounds like some shitty-ass programming.

Stupid coders.
