Today's Office (2)

Some days at work are better than others, last week included two of my best ever days!

So the scenario is that me and my colleague Selim were tasked with determining the roaming behaviour of our Sony Ericsson devices; the closest place for us to do this from Munich is Austria. So between us we were driving around an area known to have "difficult radio conditions", meaning handing over from 3G to 2G etc. While Selim was driving I got these couple of photos...

This is a really amazing part of the world, but the best bits were seen when I was driving! We have a large van, so when we are working in the back we can't really see much, but when driving these mountain roads it's really amazing! I wanted to come back with my bike but the following weekend was rainy and I couldn't find the motivation :(

I'll add all the photos to Picassa (because it's better than Facebook...) Link to follow.

Anyway, that was a cool couple of days work. I'll definitely go back! (both for work and for fun) anyone want to come with me?

Viel Spaß homies!

Today's Office

I have put up a couple of "Today's office" pictures on Facebook but hadn't been anywhere for work in a while. For those that don't know the story; as a "field tester" for Sony Ericsson I test their phones out in the "field". Unfortunately this can't be a beer garden kind of field, but testing handover conditions on networks.

The Munich office of Sony Ericsson is also responsible for Switzerland and Austria. Sorry or the boring factiods but its important to explain WHY I was where I was today, which is in Switzerland testing an issue found by a Swiss network. This is just another amazing thing about my job, because I can have my lunch break in a place like this!

This is Bodensee, a massive lake of which Germany, Austria and Switzerland share a boundary. A really beautiful place to go to work!

If you've noticed an improvement in picture quality then well done and thank you! I got a new camera so I can show yo much better shots of the Austrian Lakes, where I go tomorrow morning! Stay tuned for that!

Viel Spaß homies!
