We did have several snowball fights at work already. :)

However, I could hardly get to the bus stop in the morning, as I have no idea where my boots are, and the snow was deeper than my shoes.

I enjoy the snow too much right now to be annoyed by the difficulties. And I don't suppose it will last long enough to become annoying.

I enjoy work right now, but the other apprentice girls  are getting impossibly cheeky and insolent. *growls* Especially one of them - well, if she enjoys being yelled at daily, she can get that.
Sadly, the sort-of boss, who is also her instructor, lets her do whatever she pleases.

Gah. Don't remind me of phones.
Yesterday, four girls were standing in the workroom, and not one of them went to answer the phone when it rang (I was at the end of one of the largest greenhouses and couldn't get to the phone in time).
When I asked them why they hadn't answered the phone, they didn't even acknowledge my presence. Might as well have talked to (well... yelled at) the wall.

If they think I'll forget that, they're mistaken, the little bitches.

Have to force myself to write a little...

I walked home from the bus stop in a raging snowstorm this evening.  It was quite special and jubilant, especially when I had to walk through the snow dunes in a school yard.

I am totally flabbergasted. I had my IDE create a project at a location and added a file to that project. Eclipse can read that file just fine, but Windows can't find it at all...

Nope, I opened eclipse, used the wizard to create a new project there, and then used the wizard to create a new file. Then I went into the explorere to see if the folder was there and it wasn't. I can't even find the file when I search my C drive. It's just not there. Yet when I close down and restart Eclipse, it can find the file just fine. And in the properties of the file it really states that location.

Oh, wait. There was a button that said "show processes from all users". It's svchost that is using half my CPU.

Nope. I created the workspace in Eclipse as well and it's just not there on the system.

maybe it's created as a hidden file?

Another suggestion - in the process manager, does it say that Eclipse is being virtualized?
Vista runs some applications in their own virtualized sandbox, and there's a special hidden directory under your home directory in which it puts virtual copies of a lot of the standard directories that applications expect - I gather it's to force applications that aren't designed for it to support per-user settings.

To see the virtualization status of a process in task manager, just add that column to the view (View|Select Columns)

The special folder is in %HOME%\AppData\VirtualStore
(%HOME% being, of course your user directory under \Users)
