You two carried me through that war. Now I need you to carry me just a little bit further. If you can.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

We're an IE6/XP company too, and the primary web applications that my area supports are only guaranteed to work on IE6/XP. But I have Opera and Firefox installed for using everything else.

We're Office 2003 too, but I'm totally happy about that.

Perhaps I should pseudicide and come back as someone more interesting.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Our company is stuck on IE 6 and most people are still using Office 2003.

Our second-biggest client is still on Office 97. So when I do development for them, I have to use a virtual machine with Office 97 on it.

Trust my rage

I am meeting with my new job people in a half hour. It took me 65 minutes to get here from the daycare which means that I can leave my house and be at my desk in 1.5 hours. I can live with that. Also, by the time I got to Denver, traffic was mostly done with so I didn't sit much.

I'm sort of nervous but not exactly sure why. New people, I guess.

Oh hey, interesting development. It turns out I died yesterday. Really tragic, Zeppelin accident.

Dude! Did you know I'm from the future? I was gonna warn you to stay away from Zeppelins on 3/1/10, but I forgot. Sorry.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

we are still only allowed IE6

Same with us, but that's because ARISg 5.1 isn't compatible with higher versions. Once we upgrade ARIS, we can upgrade IE. The rest of the company upgraded a long time ago.

We're not officially allowed to use Firefox. Buuuuut here I am.

Sorry Gud. A waste of a perfectly good zeppelin.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

We're an IE6/XP company too

Same here, except for my department which uses Firefox & IE8 because our new strategic business partner (who built our new website) doesn't support IE6.
