Dave's new lab
« on: March 26, 2016, 03:26:13 pm »
Saw on twitter that dave is moving to a new lab on Tuesday.  Do we get a sneak peek of what it looks like?  Looks like a big building!

I am available if he needs a janitor and sweeper to live in, I do not need much room, just a small office and a shower.

Did suggest he petition the council though to change the road name, 3 Minnow place is not a proper address, 3 EE Avenue is so much better, or you can call it Engineering Row.

Dave is this what you did all that money that was supposed to buy the DSE branding ?
Should have an unlimited supply of cheap junk to teardown, what with the bunnings down the road.

note: All their commercial properties have $0 , the usual if you have to ask you cannot afford it.

I'd be concerned about the opinion of SWMBO.

I don't know what suburb Dave lives in - I'd assumed that it would be the same or less distance than the current lab.

Other factors must have come into play  :-// considering Sydney has just been listed as having the (third??? - I can't recall) worst traffic conditions in the world!   :scared: :--

He couldn't have rented the whole building, could he?

I assume it's been split up into units by a developer or Dave has entered into a new business venture with his partners (?) following the unsuccessful bid for tricky Dick's. :-//

That would be my biggest fear also!  :scared:

I don't know where Dave lives, but I get the impression it's not too far from his current lab - maybe a 15 minute drive or something like that.  The new place would take 3 times that in peak traffic, if not more.

Feels about right.

No doubt. :--

Though I think Dave probably doesn't keep "office hours" so it wouldn't be as bad.  :-//

Knowing Dave, he spent 30 seconds inspecting the inside of the building, and 30 minutes inspecting Agilent's dumpster out the back.

It's Altium, not Agilent.

I don't expect much interesting stuff in their dumpster.
