Nothing Is Sacred

Ahoy!

Sorry for the late post today peoples. It’s been go-go-go all morning long. w00t w0t, l33t l33t.

I really don’t mean to rant about work all week, but I have two more things that I want to mention. Then I’ll shut up. Maybe. Anyways, I was walking down the hall and ducked into the bathroom. While I was “standing” there, a user walked into the bathroom and started talking about computer problems. Note that he didn’t make use of the facilities; he just came in there to corner me. And cornered I was. Luckily I don’t fight much when cornered. I guess that’s better than the time an old man came in and starting lecturing me on old age and prostrate problems.

Secondly, it’s probably not a good idea to forward chain letters using company email to your local network administrator. Just a FYI there.

Ok, that’s enough about work. Thankfully I have tomorrow off for Good Friday. That means two things for you all out there. I won’t be talking about how much I love my job because I won’t be posting tomorrow. A holiday is a holiday. However, rumor has it that there will be a special guest posting tomorrow.

Finally, Saturday is my birthday. I’ll be a shade under a quarter century at 24 years old. Woo hoo! Actually, I’m holding off the large celebration until I hit 25 and get that car insurance break. Ah yes…things to look forward to: insurance breaks and prostrate problems. At any rate, leave me some bday lovin’.

    Ah, no more weeping. Joshua made his daily posting.

    As far as the being cornered in the bathroom. You should do what I do. Stand at the urinal and, when they come up to you and start talking to you about their computer problems, just turn around and face them without stopping the flow. The wet shoes usually gets the point across to them.

    Dustin on PMS: I don’t know what cramps are like, but I’ve had Mexican food that probably came close.
