Friday stuff
I zoomed over to my tire guy on my way to work; he tested the tire, said it was leaking where it was previously plugged and that he'd try to plug it again, but if that didn't work, that it was definitely time for another tire. So I ponyed up $7 for the plug, which seems to be working. I'm going to stash a few dollars for another tire just in case.
Saw a really pretty blue Year One Camaro this afternoon. And a late model something---I don't remember what---but it was emerald green, just gorgeous. Not a loud green, just a very classy jewel-tone.
Tonight, when all the supervisors were gone, I went back to my previous position and swapped that keyboard for the piece of shit at my current desk...I'm tired of having the space bar stick! It's a pain in the ass when I'm trying to type up a request and itallrunstogether.
That's the kind of thing where supervisors get all "We'll get them to open a work ticket" --- NO. If swapping peripheral componants on computers was rocket science, I'd be working at NASA and making a helluva lot more money. If I get really ambitious, I'll completely reorient the tower, which was what I did when our department was over on the other side of the call center. I stayed over about 45 minutes one evening and repositioned the tower from the floor under the desk to horizontal on the desk with the monitor on top of it. At the moment, it's vertical on the desk, which I don't like---it takes up a lot of real estate. We'll see....
Got a few good sales today...from my position in the trenches of online retail, the economy seems to be springing back. I'm not getting a lot of zillion-dollar luxury item sales, but people are buying blue jeans and prom dresses and sneakers---life goes on!
Tomorrow is my Friday, O frabjuous day, calloo callay....
