Minister of Finance gets yet another bad idea

Saturday, December 23rd, 2006

The Norwegian Minister of Finance got another “great” idea and wants to introduce number portability for bank account numbers. Norwegian readers can read my rant on the matter at valg29.com.

People for other nationalities probably wouldn’t care about the matter anyways, except developers that for sure will get a handful of jobs if this gets through.

4 down, 1 to go

Thursday, December 14th, 2006

I had my fourth exam for the semester today, a boring five hour exam in Business and Society II, mostly just politics really, so hopefully I managed to stay objective enough for a decent grade.

With four down, it leaves me with a final exam in Finance Wednesday the 20th of December. This is a three hour multiple-choice exam and a rather interesting subject, so I’m actually looking forwards to it, in sorts.

I’m driving back home to my home town and my family after a quick trip into the office Thursday, and staying back home for the christmas days before returning back home to get some work done before new years eve. It is fairly chaotic in the office these days, as a new law regarding service pensions have been introduced with a deadline 31st of December 2006. At least 80,000 companies still lacks this service pension, abbreviated OTP in Norwegian, and many of them will be on my email and phone the last days of the year to get everything signed and ready.
