    After days like today I really start to think people should be licensed to use a computer.

    Heh, so a 15 year old kid managed to get control of Shirley Phelps of Westboro Baptist Twitter account, remotely recorded porn to her DVR, and disconnected her internet service. Awesome

    Hrm, so I broke a client's $50,000 3D eyeball camera thingy-ma-jig. Not going to be a good day.

      It's a client, so at worse they'd drop me, no garnishment :)

       

      Wasn't my fault really, software update bricked the FPGA board, they're overnighting a new one

    And I just got someone fired. Nothing like doing remote assistance session and noticing the user's massive limewire'd pr0n collection. Whoops.

      Agree with FK. I can't believe Limewire is still around and being used.

      Yea, bad enough to use Gnutella these days, not to mention the worst client for it ever made.

    Just took the girl to a "Brazilian" restaurant where they just walk around with huge chunks of meat on a spike asking if you want any, believe it was the best $104.58 I've ever spent.

      Yep, just like this one. They also had cooked(grilled?) pineapple infused with cinnamon which may have been the best part.

      If meat was so good, I can't imagine how were the waitresses ? :P

      I've only been to "The Fire of Brazil" in ATL. The. Best. Pineapple was prepared the same, very awesome, I too thought it was the highlight.

    Been on hold for support for a local ISP for over 25 minutes without even talking to a person... my headset will die before I get support.

    Ugh, had a client that had their server die with no SQL backup for their CRM... gotta do imports from a bunch of randomly formatted CSVs, not gonna be a fun day.

    1. Cinkadeus

      Cinkadeus

      oh my... I'm sorry, man. That IS going to suck. I can just hear the meeting in my head where they said, "Nah, we won't need a backup."

    2. Flitterkill

      Flitterkill

      GC has off-site sql backups automatically done. That and I grab a sql dump myself every now and then.

      Yea, we don't do IT services for this client, they have some local yokels. We just do CRM(Sugar) and ERP(Sage MAS 90). About 6 hours with awk and sed and done. Nice $700 bill to close the month with :P

    Meh, it finally snowed here. Winter is finally here and I have to put the scooters away :(

    We've been out of aerosol butter for the popcorn maker at work for a week now, I think I may have to put in my notice if this doesn't get fixed.

    So has doing a server install for a client and sat down at one of the PCs and there was a Word doc load with a ton of lame porn site URLs, and tissues on the desk. Awkward.

      that's one way to encourage people to take an early weekend.

      A lot funnier when it happens on Tuesday. The busiest and the furthest day from the weekend, the two combination to Godzilla mode.

    I'm fairly certain the F-16s of the local Air National Guard take off and circle directly over my house at low altitude until they're bingo fuel just to annoy me.

    1. Cinkadeus

      Negative, Ghostrider, the pattern is full.

    Weather forecast for the next two days: Rain changing to ice pellets, changing to snow, changing to thunderstorms, changing to snow, changing to thunderstorms, changing snow. Talk about odd.
