Late to work because some fuckin' idiot truck driver doesn't know the height of his truck and clipped the overpass on the parkway this morning. Breaking news, the parkways are for cars only. Stay on the fucking expressway.
 
I am sitting next to a geriatric techoramus, as he is listening to his voice mail messages,.. all the way back from August.

He is repeating over and over again; delete message.

But, given his flappy mouth jowls, it sounds more like duh-leet mesh-age. And, he keeps getting louder and angrier each time he says duh-leet mesh-age.

By minutes 23, we were trying to tell him he can press 7 and it will delete the message - no need to shout it. He because angry with us and yelled; I AM LISTENING TO MY VOICEMAILS!!!!

,.. he is now eating a piece of fruit while shouting duh-leet mesh-age. Sloshing & smacking has been added to this situation.

I'm finally not hungover from Vegas anymore so I ended up being super hungry since I basically didn't eat all weekend. I ended up getting a medium pizza from pizza hut and ate the whole thing by myself and now I feel horrible again and need to hit the gym. D:
 
I think mp3 players are outdated technology like 8-tracks.

*shrug*

My Fuze+ 8G, will take a micro card, still plays FLACs and runs Rockbox as custom firmware and will run for 10 hours on a charge, I don't want an I-Phone at work.

That and I bought it for 35 Bucks off the Egg refurbished 3 years ago.

This isn't so much of a first world problem as it is a used to be a first world problem.

Just discovered Remote Desktop Connection Manager and it has streamlined me having to continuously remote into different servers.
 
Tuesday afternoon I was asked/told if I wanted to participate in planning the work holiday party. Said yes since I really didn't have the option of saying no.
Email went out stating I was "happy to run point for us this year". Umm, I said I would participate, not be the lead. Too late now.
Today I was asked if we have anything booked and that I need to have everything taken care of by tomorrow at the latest since the big boss on the east coast wants to get his calendar for the remainder of the year finalized.

Thanks boss, really appreciate that.
 
The cleaning service had to come today instead of tomorrow as I originally wanted. Now my place will have a whole day of dirt on it when my friends come over on Saturday :\

10/10.

My IT department has no 3.5 MM male/male audio cables to connect a laptop headphone jack to the TV (and no HDMI laptops) so we had to listen to the webinar via conference call line instead of through the TV speakers.
