Working at the camp site

Only another few days working at the camp site and being amused by the antics of the people there. The funniest is the boss and he alpha male activity. He loves to go around dishing out tellings off or simply telling how he thinks the job should be done. Most times he is over doing it and could spend his time more profitably by trusting the workers at the camp site. Mind you there is one guy that gets drunk every day and is useless in the afternoon. There is another that is a useless lump of lard that is so slow entering in the details of the customers as they arrive that there are often queues of people that could be instead putting up the tent or spending time swimming in the sea, or lying on the beach. Then there is the old guy that really is too ill to work and parks his car in the car park only 30 metres from the reception, but the walk across nearly kills him.

Learning Programming

I am itching to get learning more programming and hopefully build a business making applications for the iPad, iPod and iPhone plus some Mac apps too. I have a couple of good book and I have downloaded a pile of videos from the WWDC conference that show how to do many things and are pretty useful. There is the iOS 4 within the new Xcode that is to be released soon. I have been trying it out and it looks pretty good. To get my hands on these I had to pay up the 99 dollars to be a member of the Apple developer program for the iPhone. I am disappointed that they expect another 99 for the Mac developer program. But the code is very similar so by being in the iPhone side you get loads of info that helps with the Mac programming too.

New Monitor

I bought a new monitor for my wife and I am using it. No I am not being selfish or bad – It is just that the Minidisplay to DVI converter cable got broken by her the other day so we have to get another before she can use it. I ordered one from Apple and a Bluetooth keyboard to go with it to make her Mac experience better with the MacBook Pro she has.
