Simple, it's what makes the Internet GO! And I am now using the Internet with GO FASTER STRIPES :D

Just ran a speed test and I am getting 8Mbps extra download and upload speed has gone from about 8Mbps to over 20Mbps... :yikes:

My car has GO FASTER STRIPES, :D . I did wonder about the surf board, I was skimming over all the jargon and numbers and wirey words, and 'surf board' jumped out a me. I did briefly think Whoo DD surfs! Then I thought nah, it'll just be wires .

Now I'm not sure I'll be able to get much sleep. Interview at 8:30am and I'm crazy nervous. :/
All the best for that mate. :thumbup:

Thanks all. :)

The school is a little bigger than I thought, but still much smaller than the one I'm currently at. Met the headteacher and a couple of the deputies, got a brief overview of the technology in place, had a full guided tour by the head boy and head girl, then the interview which was the shortest part of the day. An hour and a half later, I've been offered and have accepted the job, even though I accidentally talked over one guy and rambled a bit... :blush:

About £2500 to start with, potentially rising by another £2000 as time goes on. Mainly went for it because I can't stand where I am currently, it's way closer to home and there's a lot more time off. Plus, the school actually seems to give a crap about the kids there as opposed to making as much money as possible, so that's quite an attractive feature. Every class I went into today was calm and quiet, the students looked to be engaged, the staff were able to get on with their lessons etc. and it just generally seemed like a nice place to be. Hopefully it means no more dodging stools in science labs (something that I've become quite good at over the past few years!). :)

And that (a happy work environment, a place where you are happy to get up and go to every day), can never be compensated by money!

Well done Denthúl. :clap:

So far today...
- Just re-coded a searching function (quite a big job but I did it in under an hour)
- Flashed a new Kernel onto my tablet, with some new settings which essential underclocks my device by 25%, improves caching and scheduling, resulting in a 40% speed boost and a 20% battery boost, black magic software modding :P
- Finally, finalizing a complete re-write of our biggest program getting rid of loads of un-needed code, adding new code, improving code, making it do even more, even faster, even better.... yeah it gives me headaches typing all the code >_<
- Added some pretty little GUI's on one of the excel documents which trigger certain macros to do certain tasks, pretty impressive what they do for us.

Is it a Private school? Kids like that were certainly a rarity where I went.

Fantastic Dent! Sounds like a win win situation! Having a head teacher that actually does his job and creates an exciting learning environment is worth more than extra money, but you get the money as well :thumbup: a shitfaced head that didn't care about the kids is why I left my last job.
