A tragedy of less than epic proportions: no interweb.

They've taken away my Internets. Yes, I can still see LJ through the dumb web-proxy, but my supply-closet access to the internet was discovered by some zealously paranoid network person and removed. Now I can't check email except at the hotel. Great.

*shakes fists in minor impotent whinging at the sky*

I think I'll probably be able to get it fixed -- I can't transfer anything from my lab computers to this office without it -- but the people whom I should ask are all out of the office all day. Ah well.

yah. I've learned mainly that the research environment in our lab is better. that's both reassuring (yay I work in a cool place most of the time!) and disappointing (not all industry research jobs are rockin' with the helpful research environment).

I at least have internet at the hotel, so I can stay in the loop with other stuff. And I have some work I can do usefully here, even without the network, but it doesn't bode well for collaboration.
