Good point. Seems to be the consensus. I am being to sour.

valid points, thanks for sharing.

Yeah that's a good point. I never considered asking for more money.

Even if Harper goes (and if he doesn't I call shenanigans) the bill has been passed. The damage has been done. If liberals win it is highly unlikely they would remove that bill, and if NDP wins still i doubt they will abolish the bill. At best you can hope for NDP to win and submit revisions to the bill for more oversight.

Just an awful day for Canada. Whats the point of the government if they don't listen to the people. I can't see more than 1% of the population wanting this. Should elect a government that listens to the people.

I hope it works out for you. I also found that hot water helped a lot. Try ice for pain and hot water or whatever for healing.

I don't know how affordable it would be but physiotherapy may help. Finding the root of the cause will help as well. If its arthritis your treatment options are going to be very different from muscle strain. I developed RSI last year and still have it today. It has become more manageable but still painful. If it is muscle related physio could put you on the right path of repair and rebuilding those muscles. They would give you stretches and hand workouts which would help strengthen the muscles which would eventually stop the pain. But it takes dedication. I wouldn't say give up on coding if you love to do it. You could try speech to text programming. It may be hard to adjust but I have seen someone use speech to text quiet efficiently. Have you considered a "vacation" away from the computer? I feel if I had the chance to take 2months away from the compute my RSI would go away.

Depends on what type of work you do... but I really like:

Asana --> https://asana.com/

Also note worthy is Evernote.

All the websites I looked up came up as cast: unknown.

All the places I have worked allowed headphones. I don't think I'd work somewhere that didn't allow headphones. How do you get in the f'n zone without some awesome music?

This is so cool. What a creative idea. Wish I had thought of it :(

That is a pretty cool idea.
