I’m still not quite awake.
wednesday has apparently become the day of the creative start to a morning. I ended up oversleeping *just* slightly, and still threw myself together in plenty of time to get to work and not be late; I had 10 minutes to spare, which actually makes up for yesterday, thankyaverymuch. And … Read the rest

I have come to a very disturbing realization.
A computer manufacturing company who expects me to do tech support for them is apparently unable to stick a computer in front of me that’s capable of opening a whole lot more than the number of windows necessary to complete the tasks asociated with this job, who’s days are both … Read the rest

An ironic little moment of pure fucking win.
I spent the majority of this year going through certification for becoming what Dell calls an advanced resolution expert. Basicly it’s proof that I actually can fix your shit. So effective as of today, and for the next month I work here, I get hit with a nearly $10k raise. … Read the rest

Damn.
I could have paid $1000 less for this and not had to go find XP compatible drivers for my beast of a machine currently sitting in my living room? And yet I did it the hard way anyway? … Yes, I am ubergeek. But we knew this already. ***************** Canada’s … Read the rest

Oh nos, teh busy starts already.
It’s usually a whole shitload quieter when I show up in the morning than it is right now. I was gonna do a random update and such at some point this morning, but that’s apparently not happening. I probably have links to post. That will happen if I can catch … Read the rest

I can has break now.
Insane is probably world’s hugest understatement today. Unfortunately it’s the best description I can find. So insane sticks. People were on hold earlier today for upwards of half a fucking hour. Ignoring the ridiculousness of the idea that someone actually has that kind of time to spend on the phone, … Read the rest

Stalker chicky update.
So the girl I posted about who keeps randomly saying hello to me on the way by has been identified. Turns out she’s not someone I have a whole lot of interest in talking to anyway. Okay, so I retract my suggestion to drop by when you want to have … Read the rest

*comes up to breathe*
This much welcome break from talking brought to you by thank fucking god. I love me my job, but a little bit of a break sure would be awesome right about now. *stops writing to take a call* Apparently breaks don’t exist. Back to help someone fix their MS Office. … Read the rest
