Objectives In A Resume For A Clothing Store

Murphy also does not sleep ... I did not remember

... and last weekend went to see me.

Any engineer (and not just say everyone has to do with science or technology, such as user or as a researcher or developer) has always had a strong reverence for the worship Murphy's Law.

It is an honor to testify that Murphy has paid attention to my humble person and home, a few days ago.

could not otherwise explain a contemporary and likely mortality of technological objects in my vicinity. Going in order, over two days have passed to a new life:

  1. a power supply for notebook (Original HP), which presented as an output voltage of 0 V, prti source has been replaced by payment of €
  2. the charging circuit of the HP notebook that I had faithfully served for 4 years: the PC still works perfectly, but is not receiving power from the transformer (not the new one, which I bought at this point unnecessarily, and it is these details that you appreciate the genius of Murphy), so once the batteries discharged, kaput ... there is nothing more to do
  3. the power of the desktop PC I had at home (which has remained the only available of course, after the mutiny on the handset). Or rather, the power supply fan has failed. But probably the protection circuit, so to stop the power supply fan is not disabled (as it should), but continued to work, producing enough heat to deform the surrounding parts. Just the power to change course. Except that you do know that that form of power and there are a few around, and it will be difficult (Or long) to find a replacement.
  4. course the next morning you wake up at a good pace, intending to buy the transformer (still hoping to find the first time) and to inform on the prices of notebooks (the knowledge that will hurt the wallet to buy back an entire PC for a single integrated dead But HP is not repairable because the place so you have to change the entire motherboard). Obviously any program in the morning jump because you realize you've stopped the clock on the time wrong. And we hope it's just the battery ...

The only positive note, the only point of pride: I'm not even a file, not a single byte, not even an email, even a bookmark or in e-mail. I've always felt that to be paranoid about backups, eventually, pay. And from now on I will pay more attention to the hypothesis implied that "it is too unlikely to spoil two things at once."
