...reminds me of Dr. Mario. Did you play that? It was like Tetris, but with drugs . . . gods, it all makes sense now. I'm kidding. But really, in the world of cyber viruses, the same goddamn program as last week--or whenever the Malware started--is giving me problems this week, only it's a different… Continue reading And This Week’s Virus…
My Reality (blog)
And We’re Off
...but gods help me, I think I might lose my mind over the next two weeks. Last Friday began my 10-hour days, which allows me to have one of the five days in the week off. Since I'm sitting here typing this, I'll give you a guess as to which day that is. I'm kidding.… Continue reading And We’re Off
Malware Found
...and this is what I've had to deal with for the past week. When I find the little bastard who created this, I'm strangling him to death. I will kill him until he dies from it. I'm serious. This particular beauty affects only the one program--InTouch--so far, which also happens to be the receipt program… Continue reading Malware Found
Should I Go?
...or should I stay right where I am? Last week, after the bossman finally made a decision on the new hire to fill my old contract, my actual physical position in the area was apparently up for discussion in the back. Jinxie: Where's the new person going, since J's taking up the only other… Continue reading Should I Go?
I Can’t Find Anyone
...and where the fuck did they all go? We've been dealing with construction in my building for the past week and everyone has moved. The issue with that is that I can't find the people I need to talk to for a quick question/answer because they've all moved to somewhere else on the property, which… Continue reading I Can’t Find Anyone
10 Reasons I Suck at Blogging
...and I'll be amazed if this post actually publishes. Yeah, yeah, we all know I'm terrible at keeping a schedule with this damn thing, though I do try my best. I honestly don't know how some authors blog weekly or even daily and still write a book, edit said book, market the book, and work… Continue reading 10 Reasons I Suck at Blogging
How Many IT Guys…
...does it take to move a desk? Well, that depends. So, the entire IT (or IS, as we call it) department/building is under construction...All. At. Once. I came in Monday morning to insanity. Try listening to someone on the phone in the midst of sledgehammers pounding drywall and wood around you. But first, most of… Continue reading How Many IT Guys…
Let’s Talk About Plagiarism
...because you know it's out there and happens more frequently than you could possibly realize. Plagiarism. It's a dirty little word, one that people frequently misspell and can't quite grasp its meaning. They ask, "Well, what is plagiarism exactly?" Really? I'll tell you exactly what plagiarism is.... Plagiarism is, in the scholarly realm, writing 3-4 words… Continue reading Let’s Talk About Plagiarism
Are You Available?
...because we want to know, not for us, but y'know. So my boss is one of only two men in my small little help desk area, and he's a riot. If I can ever get the chance to record one of the conversations between him and my ex-neighbor in the back, I will share with… Continue reading Are You Available?
Upcoming Event(s)
...because you KNOW I don't do these things for myself as an author or even publisher (yet). *gasp* An actual honest-to-goodness author event? Yes, my darling minions.....well, it's called Phoenix Comicon and it is the first weekend in June. Feel free to bring forth birthday tidings, and if they are of the food variety, let's… Continue reading Upcoming Event(s)
