Jan. 13th, 2006 02:51 ammonths ago i demanded that my boss get me a cooler phone that the blackberry which was standard issue. some time after that, i had to push code at an inopportune moment (eg, several beers into my friday night), and i borrowed my roomate's sidekick to ssh into my work via a secret ssh hole i had punched in the office firewall and succesfully pushed some jars around (using "lazy admin no likey typing" shell scripts i had already written to expidite the arduous deploy process).
i bragged about that to my boss later on and he was so impressed that he promised he'd get me on.
anyway, my boss bought me one as a sorta year end bonus thing and i fucking love it--i spent all day writing short-hand shell aliases to do crazy stuff in production like push an entire code package with a couple keystrokes.
and the best thing is, it doesn't integrate into the corp mailserver at all, so i only get pages sent to my tmail.net account. victory is mine!
