 +====== Tuesday Afternoon Food Time ======
 +
 +Aliases: TAFT, Tasty Tuesdays, Tired Ass Fking Tea
 +
 +Every Tuesday afternoon in the school year, between 3:30 and 4:00, donuts/bagels/muffins/something better are deposited in the lounge by a volunteer in an effort to incentivize interactions between hungry grad students, post docs, and professors.
 +
 +=== Details ===
 +
 +An email is sent out every Tuesday when the food arrives; keep an eye out and come grab a snack when it does!
 +At the beginning of each semester, the current TAFT Czar (a [[student jobs|grad student job]]) will put out a
 +call for volunteers (please sign up!).  If you are the current week's volunteer, you'll get a reminder email
 +from the friendly TAFT Robot with all details.  After TAFT, you can get reimbursed up to $15 by submitting
 +an entertainment reimbursement form (available in the main office).
 +
 +=== TAFT Robot ===
 +
 +The TAFT Robot is a combination [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron|CRON job]] and Python script, and it must
 +be updated each semester with the new volunteers.  The code (as of Fall 2013) lives at ''/o/ishivvers/taft'',
 +feel free to go in and poke your nose around.
 +
 +The current cronjob lives on ''lupus'', and the command looks like this:
 +
 +    # crontab entry for the TAFT email bot; script runs every Monday & Tuesday during the school months
 +    30 8 * 2,3,4,5,9,10,11,12 1,2 python /o/ishivvers/taft/taft_mail.py > /dev/null
