I'm sitting here at my desk gently rubbing an eraser all over my beautiful Viewsonic VG1930wm. I mention the model number to point out that no, it's not from the VA value series, it's the VG series because spreadsheets are serious business. Anyway, the point is...I feel like a blonde joke brought to life.
The inventory chief was just in here giving me a not-so-brief overview of inventory, and he punctuated his narration by jabbing at various elements on the screen with his mechanical pencil. I winced with every thrust, imagining that surely this time he would puncture the LCD and goo would start oozing out of the hole and sparks would fly and I would have to have a CRT again and be forever known as "the guy who poked his LCD". Fortunately, the LCD is still intact after my meeting. However, there remain pencil marks all over, so here I sit with my eraser trying to not press too hard.
I suppose I should just be thankful he's not the type of guy who does his crosswords in ink.
