items: lnxw48a1: Looks like #PREPA and #Luma_Energy have fixed the problem. The island-wide outage is resolved. #PR
items: lnxw48a1: Puerto Rico suffering a massive power outage. https://nu.federati.net/url/285748 [abcnews go com] #pr
items: lnxw48a1: I finally looked up “Despacito”. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kJQP7kiw5Fk This must have been released after I left #PR. By the sound of it, I would have heard it.
items: lnxw48a1: Funny conversation: one lady's family is from #PR, but she's learning Spanish here, so it's Mexican dominated. She calls her relatives and they don't understand her speech.
items: lnxw48a1: Someone sent me this while I was in #PR. I think this is one that should be hanging everywhere. https://nu.federati.net/attachment/273799
items: lnxw48a1: #PTC9 becomes #TropStorm #Isaias, nearing #PR. https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/
items: lnxw48a1: Also not as bad as being in #PR. Heat and humidity.
items: lnxw48a1: Arden-Arcade / #Sac ... heading toward 103°F / 39°C today. @bthall Only 91°F in San Juan #PR
items: lnxw48a1: I don't know how to use a bidet. They had one in one place I stayed in #PR, but that's not something you ask. I'll have to buy some supplies soon.
items: lnxw48a1: A guy from work had wanted to move to #PR, but instead he bought a house in #MI.
items: lnxw48a1: Over 60 quakes in view here: https://nu.federati.net/url/255362 ... and that’s the past 24 hours. Now, most of those are going to be barely felt, but still, that’s a lot. #PR #earthquake
items: lnxw48a1: I normally get an SMS for any USA 5.0 or greater. I guess #PR, being a commonwealth and territory, does not count as USA.

title: lnxw48a1: The curse of the subtropics, I guess. When I worked in #PR, many nights had hot, warm air outside. Also, #muskies can fly at heights that I'd not considered reachable. Most places didn't have screens on the windows. Yes, even in tourist zones of #Puerto_Rico, there were plenty of mosquitoes.

title: lnxw48a1: Dealing with hotels is such a bother. If I am set to be in your establishment for a month or more, you don't have to put a hold on my card for the entire amount. You can hold a week at a time, so I have the ability to pay for other work related expenses. Getting contacted by HQ about the hotel's excessive holds is also not fun. This happened in #PR also, but never anywhere else before I came to #NYC.

title: lnxw48a1: People working for the national help desk popping up on MSTeams to ask for help with a ticket. I think I'm going to start referring them to the IT Guide put out by a guy in Puerto Rico. The #PR guide doesn't have answers for every problem, but it probably covers half of the things they call on me for. (Their fixes site is outdated--and scattered all over the place by a migration, so I understand why they're reaching out.)

title: lnxw48a1: Opened MSTeams this week and noticed that one IT guy I worked with in #PR is now “unknown”. $EMPLOYER wasn’t really a good fit for his needs anyway. He lived in one of the Great Lakes states, was providing care for both his father and stepfather, and had some issues with his own offspring. When we were in Puerto Rico, a bigwig from NYC showed up and was hostile and disparaging toward the tech staff. He complained to the head of the local operation and the bigwig was forced to write an apology. But then he was sent home suddenly, months earlier than expected. Hopefully, he found another job and pulled the plug ? himself.

title: lnxw48a1: A tip: no matter how pricey* the #hotel, bring your own soap and shampoo and TP. There’s something wonderful about using products that do not make your skin feel like you just poured a corrosive chemical over yourself ( or rubbed sensitive parts with sandpaper ), but the industry does not want to pay for such products. * I work for the US government. As a rule, government does not pay for the highest priced hotels. But when I was in #PR ( #Puerto_Rico, not to be confused with Google’s #Page_Rank algorithm ), the only hotels available were in the luxury tourist area. I found this to also be true there.

title: lnxw48a1: I used to write a lot of one-off unofficial training docs for field employees. When I was in #PR, I discovered that one of the people there was collecting such information into a single, unified training guide and maintaining it. I contributed indirectly to the guide and have been utilizing and distributing it since then. Today, my first "patch" was accepted, a one-line addition. Hopefully, his guide completely displaces the use of my previous, now outdated and unmaintained, training docs throughout $EMPLOYER.

title: lnxw48a1: Kenny called because he's trying to advise someone that is dealing with several equipment replacements for people working from home. I'm unable to improve the process the person is using. I mean, both Kenny and I suggested an improvement, but some manager would have to approve it and I don't see them doing that. In an earlier call, Kenny and I discussed the #COVID-19 vaccine rollout and some workplace changes that we hope remain after the pandemic is squashed. Kenny called twice, and B called once. B called because she's working with someone that I worked with in #PR and my name came up in conversation. S texted, but it was about weather in #SoCal versus the weather in the SE US.

title: lnxw48a1: One other thing to point out ... when I was in #PR, it was apparent that they'd been in a recession for a long time, because everywhere around me were signs of buildings and infrastructure not having been maintained. The radio-telescope's maintenance should have come from the money sent by NSF to the organization operating the telescope on their behalf, but it could be possible that some of the funding was supposed to be raised locally.

TS #Laura is over and to the West of #PR. The #NOAA / #NHC forecast shows it going right over Hispaniola and Cuba (with some impacts in the Turks and Caicos and the Bahamas. Current projection shows Laura striking Louisiana as a hurricane on Wednesday 2020-08-26, two days after Marco lands. They note in the discussion for both tropical cyclones that there is a lot of uncertainty in the forecasts, so big changes could occur between now and landfall.

Two toes and the ball of my foot are sore, three toes are partially numb. (It was worse in #PR, because it hurt more and my foot was swollen for a long while after.) Having lived through this already, I know the routine. The pain goes away. The numbness lingers for a while. At least there's no swelling this time.

title: lnxw48a1: In today's call with K, we also discussed some of the ongoing racism within $EMPLOYER. I did not tell him about S's race and sex discrimination case (dropped after 4+ years because she didn't have funds to continue pursuing it). I did reiterate that I saw little of it until I worked in #PR. Still surprises me that it happens in a government agency.

I told him that I’ve been off since November 15th, but they usually try to give the telephone support line folks good info. As field IT, I know he has access to that. I should log in and check, because there’s a pay rate notice that I’ll want to read soon.

title: lnxw48a1: By the way, speaking of #PR, now that I’ve been back on the mainland for almost a year, the primary thing I miss about the island is the nightly beach trips. One of my brothers went there on vacation a few years ago. Last week, he said “Did you try Latin Star in Condado? The food there is really good.” You should have said something when I was walking past there every evening.

title: lnxw48a1: Back in 1985 or 1986, I applied for part-time work at a Chuck E. Cheese’s location nearish (a few towns away, about a three hour walk) to my home at the time, because they were going to train the person to repair arcade games. They never called. That location later closed. After I moved to my current area of #SoCal, a locally-owned arcade was hiring someone with a similar “we’ll train you to repair” promise. I applied for the job, but within a month or two, they were closed and gone. And it was funny to see a sign in the arcade in Mall of the Americas in #PR. According to Google Translate, they were making the same pitch.
