Got to work this morning and my card didn't work on the parking lot gate. I parked in the outside lot and went inside. My card didn't let me past security. They confiscated my card and told me my contractor status expired on Saturday. It seems noone renewed me... :|

I have had system access for 20 minutes now. It only took several e-mails from my boss, several phone calls by me, a personal visit to 4 different departments to expedite the process, and 5 1/2 hours....

Gotta love a bureaucracy...


where do you work?
I am a contractor with one of the largest drug companies in the world (top 5)

Colombia?
Bolivia...

Be happy it happened when you went into work. Try working the over night shift and have the card expire while your in the computer room. Go to take a leak and no can exit the room. Luckly I could remember the security phone number, but I guess after 3 attempts they'd had come a running.

LOL! :D

Here's a peculiar one. Milton Waddams.

DOM
Who's he?

BOB
You know, squirrely looking guy, mumbles a lot.

DOM
Oh.

BOB SLYDELL
We can't find a record of him being a current employee here.

BOB PORTER
I looked into it more deeply and I found what happened was he got layed
off about five years ago and no one ever told him about it. But through
a glitch in Payroll, he still gets a paycheck. I went ahead and fixed
the glitch.

BILL
Great.

DOM
So, um, Milton has been let go.

BOB SLYDELL
Just a second there, Professor. We, uh, we fixed the glitch. So he
won't be receiving a paycheck anymore. So it'll just work itself out
naturally.

exactly lol
