Hey Chickadee

...oh you're gonna love this cuteness. First thing Monday morning, my ex-neighbor co-worker (I've been moved to the front) informed me that she'd bought a chicken coup over the weekend so she can have fresh eggs. Of course, it'll be a while before that happens because THIS: How damn cute is that? Right? And, of… Continue reading Hey Chickadee

Loud Noises

...make me giggle, and I'll tell you why... Every time someone calls in a copier or printer because it's making "loud noises," I have to stifle a giggle because all I hear is this... . Now, I'm on vacation and not even awake yet when you read this. Be jealous. Have a lovely day. *grins*

In a Hurry Much?

...and now you can't login to your computer or website. People, slow down when typing your passwords before calling me to tell me you can't login. You'll get it wrong several times. Hell, I get it wrong at times simply because I'm in a hurry, rushing to get that password in so I can move to… Continue reading In a Hurry Much?

Y’know, It’d Be Nice…

...if the guys who dip their fingers into the network and systems would freakin' tell the rest of us just what in the hell they're doing once in a while. You know what I'm talking about if you work in IT. Programmers, et. al., don't bother to tell you "oh hey, by the way, we… Continue reading Y’know, It’d Be Nice…

Ready, Aim, Fire!

Last week, during a rare lull in calls, one of my co-workers broke out the Nerf guns. She, of course, aimed into the boss's office first. You try to not scream when one of those bullets comes flying over the cubicle wall at you while you're on the phone. Of course, you realize, this means… Continue reading Ready, Aim, Fire!

Hilarity Ensues…

...in the form of ignorance when it comes to computers. So last week, I heard this from another cubicle: "There is a physical power button, ma'am . . .  no, not the dell logo." And this was my reaction... It gets better... "Ma'am, what kind of computer is it? No. Do you have a tower?… Continue reading Hilarity Ensues…

A Case of the Monday…

...stupids. No, really. Pay attention. "No, ma'am, the screen is the monitor." Listening in on a co-worker's call this past week proved more fruitful for post ideas. It's also making me laugh hysterically in my little cubicle in the corner in conjunction with the calls I'm getting. Like the person I just talked to. They didn't have… Continue reading A Case of the Monday…

How Hard Is It…

...to create a new password? Apparently, it's extremely difficult when I have to remote in to help and still, the person just can't seem to type their newly created password correctly. FIVE TIMES, at the very least. *headdesk* Yes, I have to type it for them sometimes. I *wish* I was joking. In other news,… Continue reading How Hard Is It…

Smoke and Mirrors

I love that the clients/customers in the district who call me think that I'm this great and powerful sorceress, but it's really all just smoke and mirrors. They call, expecting me to perform miracles within the precious few minutes they have before their next class comes in, parents show up for a meeting, or prior… Continue reading Smoke and Mirrors
