Fake sun?
'Not Fade Away'
Spike's Bitches 39: Cuppa Tea, Cuppa Tea, Almost Got Shagged, Cuppa Tea...
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
stupid computer! ::bang:: ::bang:: ::bang:: entertain me!
Watches, agast, as Laga's computer starts to juggle flaming chainsaws right there on Laga's desk.
hey cool!
Fake sun?
well, fake-out sun would be more accurate. I gave suspicious looks in the morning and drove to the cafe instead of walking because we didn't trust it
I have a customer service/tech support one for everyone.
A coworker told this one.
We work at a helpdesk that supports restaurants who have touchscreen registers, all connected to the network, and a backoffice PC that the sales are recorded on.
Here's the call:
Manager: "All of our registers are down!!!"
Helpdesk: "Ok, are they off, or do they have an error?"
Manager: "They all say 'Can't open [IP address of back office computer file].'"
Helpdesk: "Okay, is the back office computer running?"
Manager: "Yeah, it says 'Network Cable unplugged.'"
Helpdesk: "Okay, we have to find out if the cable is disconnected from the hub, it should be near the tower, with a lot of cables attached. They look like big telephone plugs."
Manager: "I'm not sure... there's a box here that says [brand of hub]."
Helpdesk: "Does it have lights on it?"
Manager: "Yeah, but they were annoying me, so I unplugged it."
Helpdesk: "..."

Smart reaction. It didn't stick around for long.
I have a sneaking suspicion that I am the horrible customer calling customer service lines. Ok, not the one calling DCJ, because I generally know better than to unplug important things. But you know, I say stupid things, and miss things that seem obvious in retrospect, all the time. I wonder if I'm being written up on some other list even as we type.
While the bathroom remodel what wouldn't end is still in progress, we are reaching the end. And even with all the crap, it is looking really beautiful. New shower: [link] [link] New sink (still awaiting faucet) and toilet: [link]
Some how this week, in the throws of long work hours called tech, I managed to brown-bag a sandwich every day. And everyday, after a couple bites, I looked at the sandwich with wonderment as I remembered "O ya, I got sliced cheddar for the sandwiches!" When I got home (early! I escaped) from work, I root around in the fridge to find something quick to eat. I discover, not only did I buy cheddar slices, but also a block of Cracker Barrel cheddar, and a big bad of shredded cheddar/jack cheese. Hmmm, I guess I had a hankering for cheddar when I was shopping.
