I just wanted to touch base with you to tell you that we did find additional damage and have some more parts on order. We have alerted Geico that there will be a supplement.
Any questions? Feel free to email me.

I gather that it's going to be a while...

customer: I need to make a change to my boss's website.

me: What's the address of the website.

customer: Umm... I don't know.

me: [performs some quick research] Is it [URL]?

customer: Oh! Yes...

me: All right then, what did you need to change?

customer: Umm... I don't know.

me: *headdesk*

I'd actually been kind of psyched about the Young Justice cartoon. I liked the comic book and I like most of the announced characters. Having seen the trailer, well, I'll still watch, but I'm a lot less thrilled. The cheesey "today's the day" stuff I can write off as clunky exposition -- I'll hope the dialog ( Read more... )

I saw Clash of the Titans over the weekend. I was... underwhelmed.

On a side tangent, though, I got distracted by Medusa.
I'm not worrying about spoilers, by the way, because this part of the story is somewhere in the neighborhood of three thousand years old, and that's quite long enough to have passed out of spoiler-time. Also, nobody with ( Read more... )

Summarized email exchange:

Other Department: This thing is broken

Me: This is [thing we do not do]. You should take this up with [department who does that].

Other Department: I know this is [thing you do not do]! This needs to be fixed!

I have had this conversation more than once.

*sigh* Forty minutes until I go home.

ETA - it gets better. I ( Read more... )

Here are my first impressions. I haven't quite decided who the official slash couple of SGU is going to be - my best guess is Lt. Scott and Eli, which really does nothing for me.

Dr. Nicholas Rush (Robert Carlyle) - White male. Actor's been in The Fully Monty, Transpotting and a fair amount of British TV. I gather we're not supposed to like ( Read more... )

Seriously, I see variants on this all the time:
Asshat: Spew personal attacks/racism/sexism/general asshattery/etc.
Community: Dude, that's wildly ( Read more... )

As reported to me by someone in another department:
Customer: Those people never contacted me.
Rep: I see here they sent you an email.
Customer: I don't check emails!
Rep: And tried to call you several times.
Rep: And left you messages.
Customer: I don't return calls!
Rep: Would you like to talk to them now?
Customer: No! I'm too busy!
(Despite being too ( Read more... )

Customer, yesterday: Situation X is broken, and I hate Y!
(Note, I have no control over X, only Y, and this is the first time any of this has come to me.)

Me: I've contacted someone to fix X in general, have fixed X in the context of Y. I can fix Y - which of these options would you like me to implement?

Customer: Situation X is still not fixed ( Read more... )

So anyway, I'm planning on seeing Monsters vs. Aliens tonight, down at the Regal Commerce Center (the one on route 1 in North Brunswick), for the 9:40pm showing. I may or may not head down to the area earlier for dinner.
