    started a new job a few months ago, got told today that my stats were amongst the best in the (pretty big) company. I asked if that meant my pay would go up and I got laughed at. Guess who now has job interviews lined up over the next few days...

    Today was interesting at work. A construction guy in our head office cut a fiber line which blew a conduit (does that make sense? I dono not a tech guy but that's the explanation given). Email, phone systems (which are all VOIP), all of our online tools we provide to clients, and all of our internal systems dead in the water since before lunch, and they don't have an ETA. I've never seen an outage this serious before Tomorrow should be interesting... I just shut down at 3pm today and went for a hike because I couldn't do shit.

    It might not amount to anything, but I would file a complaint with your local Postmaster.

    With the amount of outages, id guess he cut a fiber trunk line or,, Sometimes fibers (individual fibers) are ran in conduit. My best guess is that he actually cut through the conduit which had many individual fibers. Depending on if the fibers are original glass or modern plastic, and how many, could be a day or a week or so to repair (glass fibers are a large pita)

    What is actually causing the water to change color?
    Some foot detox advocates claim that if the water in the foot bath changes color, it means the detox is working. This is not true. Whether the detox works has nothing to do with the color of the water. The water color can change for a number of mundane reasons, namely the presence of impurities in the water. This often happens when using tap water.

    The water changing color may even be due to the foot bath itself. Although foot bath manufacturers say the ionizing charge will remove metals and toxins from the body of the person using it, they don’t explain how the charge skips over the metals that are actually in the foot bath.

    The electricity in the product may cause some of the metal from the foot bath to be corroded by use. This could account for some of the discoloration in the water. Most foot detoxes also use special salts in the water, which can interact and cause the water to change color.

    What the research says
    Although research on foot detoxes is limited, there is some evidence to suggest that the practice isn’t effective.

    Researchers in a 2012 study took an in-depth look at the IonCleanse foot bath and found that the foot detox did nothing to reduce toxin levels in the body. They also concluded that the foot bath didn’t stimulate the body to remove toxins by itself, such as through the kidneys or liver.

    It’s worth noting that most evidence in support of this practice is anecdotal.

    *shrugs* my feet feel insanely clean now, so there's that. those foot detox pads do a little bit but not too much, this is exponentially more.

    with shit like this, there's as many crackpots that want to say it does nothing as crackpots that say it does stuff, so in such cases I'll rely on my own experience with it.


    there wasnt just water change, there was all kinds of nasty floaty shit, it looked like year old apple juice
