I'm an office professional
and so far today the best thing I've done is make this cup of hot chocolate *points* with far too much powder.



Edit- Woo, by the way! Forgot that bit.

I've set up a generic user account on five terminal servers
and nothing else. Literally nothing.

They can't exactly expect me to do anything while they consider whether they want to keep me employed or not.

*holds out hot chocolate* want some?
*puts feet up* I can't believe it's almost the weekend already.
( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Thu 21 Jun 2007, 13:23, archived)

I do fancy hot chocolate actually.
Sadly we have only coffee.

I have to buy curtain hooks today. Isn't my life exciting?

I've got shitloads of the fucking things.
Bane of my life- For some reason they get out of the box and go walkies around the bedroom.

it could happen
be sure to sleep with an emergency supply of curtains
( Discomeats fish fingers are READY!, Thu 21 Jun 2007, 13:39, archived)

Odd.
We bought a new curtain pole, which is lovely.

We also bought a set of "fully lined, excellent condition curtains" which turned out to be uber-thin and too short for our windows.

We're putting them up anyway.

thank fuck the new flat comes with the living room curtains
I dread to think how much it'd cost me (the front window is a massive bay thing)
( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Thu 21 Jun 2007, 13:28, archived)

Yeah we have net curtains in the living room which are fine
but some idiot installed wooden slat venetian blinds in the bedroom, which smack against the window at night in the wind.
( wastedindustry hates writing CVs, Thu 21 Jun 2007, 13:29, archived)

Oh god, I can imagine.
Venetian blinds always look wrong in a house if you ask me, unless it's the study.

We've got a stupid roman blind in the living room of where we live at the moment, and it's such a difficult arse.
( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Thu 21 Jun 2007, 13:31, archived)

What's the difference
between a Roman blind and a Venetian blind anyway?
( wastedindustry hates writing CVs, Thu 21 Jun 2007, 13:32, archived)

Roman blind is the kind of folded material swaggy thing
And venetian is slats, I think.

Hang on.

I have configured a Brocade Fibre Channel Switch,
EMC Clariion, and two Dell 2950's for SQL Server Clustering.

Now i am going to do nothing else all day.
( fucksocks I'm a positive bloke...by positive I mean HIV., Thu 21 Jun 2007, 13:23, archived)

Fair play to you.
Y'see that's what I want to be doing - not being the arse-end of a project involving nice servers and switches. My job is to set up users. Wow.

It's almost as if I've never configured and built an entire domain by myself before.
( wastedindustry hates writing CVs, Thu 21 Jun 2007, 13:25, archived)

Just start ASSimiliating stuff
Thats what i did - thinking about it i would prefer to be setting up users sometimes....the world seems a much nicer place doing that.
( fucksocks I'm a positive bloke...by positive I mean HIV., Thu 21 Jun 2007, 13:27, archived)

It can be good
but I'm soon to be fired (probably) for "not taking a pro-active approach in my work".

How the hell am I supposed to be pro-active in setting up user accounts? Give them a cup of fucking coffee?
( wastedindustry hates writing CVs, Thu 21 Jun 2007, 13:28, archived)

You grab their hands
and type their username and password in for them. Like a puppetmaster.
( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Thu 21 Jun 2007, 13:30, archived)

I want to be a puppetmaster.
I'd take control of my managers and force them to smash their craniums in with their keyboards.

you'll have to use your wicked mind powers to look into the future
here, it's always like "oh yes, and by the way, 3 new guys started working in product management today, did you already set up their machines and user accounts?"
how can I fucking know if they don't tell me beforehand? *grumblemumble*

I've pissed about allowing external pop3 on a server at a remote site
and read b3ta
Now i am going to go and buy some black trousers.

Work is HELL!

I've done nothing but "Test" other people's program for 3 weeks now...

( gravytrain, Thu 21 Jun 2007, 13:22, archived)

As if.
I had me rice cakes and beef (I've had this for lunch all week, I'm craving it)
( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Thu 21 Jun 2007, 13:24, archived)

Ugh, not good
I made a Lemsip, and all the paracetamol sank to the bottom. I got a mugfull of lovely blackcurrant and one mouthful of gritty bitter painkiller :-(
( Trellyclaus is returning to fuhldom, Thu 21 Jun 2007, 13:22, archived)

Oh no, it's excellent.
It's ridiculously expensive hot chocolate that we're meant to keep for when clients come in for big meetings.

Mua hah hah.
( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Thu 21 Jun 2007, 13:24, archived)

professional what?
I did a little code admittedly, but spent the rest of the time checking WoW forums and testing my new monitor which just arrived - 22 inches of meaty goodness!
( fross Read your email on, Thu 21 Jun 2007, 13:33, archived)

layabout, really.
Well, technically customer services. I can call myself professional apparently, as I've actually got qualifications in it.
( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Thu 21 Jun 2007, 13:34, archived)

Does that mean you make professionally good hot chocolate?
in which case I'll take a cup too :D
