Days like this will either start you up drinking or make you quit.
That concludes this rant.
We thank you for your support.

Reminds me of a line from Cheers. Karla says "I think this occasion calls for a beer." Norm replies, "I feel that way about most occasions."

You're in good company, James. There are at least 2 others having the same sort of day. And mine started yesterday.
This'll make you feel better . . . management doesn't like my writing. Not only that, but I'm clearly wasting time on it . . . look at all those capital letters and the punctuation!!!!! And wasting everyone else's time because it takes longer to read.
Oh, and I need to stop doing this . . . . . . when people point out my faults.

It's so much more polite that, say, telling them where to go and how to get there.Lambchop wrote:

Hope everyone's week improves, or the thin veil of polite-i-tude holds up.
Happily tooting when my dogs let me.

Discussing politics is like having a conversation with the ex. You know that no matter what the subject....it could be as innocent as what you had to eat for lunch....you know that they are going to somehow work your past sins into the conversation

There must be something in the water or solar flares or some kind of lunar thing going on. I've had to threaten two DBAs and an assistant to the project manager who thinks he's an assistant project manager, and now I'm not allowed to say "Well, our 'Hire the Stupid' initiative isn't working as well as we expected, now is it?" anymore.
Try what I do -- Extend your arms slightly with the palms up, look heavenward as if for guidance, give an exageratedly audible sigh, and mutter just loud enough for people close to you to hear, "Everywhere you look -- a$$holes."Lambchop wrote:Oh, and I need to stop doing this . . . . . . when people point out my faults.

"In the morning, in the evening, ain't we got fun?"
Yesterday purely sucked.
In the morning, I found out that State never received a tax return from several years ago, so they think I'm a nonfiler and I don't want to think about how much money they say I owe them. So I spent most of the day tracking things down to be able to refile...all of this, when, because of where I lived at the time, I had a border-city exemption and didn't owe them one penny.
All of this is frustrating but understandable. What I don't find understandable are the two state employees who sounded like it just destroyed their whole day to have to talk to me and look up my accounts to see what the matter was. Always a pleasure to see someone who enjoys their job so very much.
Anyway, that's a work in progress, and work on it continues.
In the evening, when I got home from all of this, I found there had been a power outage: all our electric clocks were blinking.
The smell hit me when I walked in the front door: faint but acrid, like someone burned an egg.
My wife's computer came up fine. Mine would not power on.
Following my nose, the source of the acrid smell seemed to be mainly coming from my power supply, so I ran to a computer store and picked up a replacement power supply.
Fortunately, my system was ok...with the new power supply, it came right up. Whew!
So that's the story of yesterday...a Very Frustrating Day.
Aaaaaarrrrrrrrrgggggggghhhhhhhhhh indeed.
Thanks for letting me vent.
