Honey, I feel for you! It must be such a pain with idiots having a direct line to your ear all day long.

What really sucks is I can't actually tell them how their problems are really not good for my creative process... but how am I supposed to write evil when I just want to bang my head on the desk??

Just under an hour to go. TGIF.

Hang in there! I start my four-day weekend tonight and, GOD, do I ever need it!

Oh, man, a four-day weekend. I would kill for a four-day weekend. One of the things I can add to the very short 'plus' column of the New Moon release: since I'm attending Jaymie's pre-movie party, I took a vacation day and got the night off work. Right now, Twilight + New Moon > work.

I am so sorry sweetie!

Maybe we should trade one day: I'll deal with the idiots and you can deal with the wealthy and powerful c-level executives who can't turn on their computers for me.

My fave -- the Microsoft executive who two years ago made me feed the thousands with three loaves and two fish because he insisted his presentation was on a zip drive and that's all he used. When he showed up from Redmond -- he didn't have a bloody zip drive...he had a USB stick that he insisted was a zip drive :)

Wow. Classic fail. Although my winner for stupid call of the week is still the guy who, even though I told him three times to go to the 'Tools' button in IE8 to configure his internet options... managed to reboot his computer instead. I'm still trying to get my head around that level of stupid.

I relayed your stories to my student worker and my co-worker today and they both got a laugh.

In retrospect, it's funny, but when the call is happening, it's just frustrating. Fortunately, it is Friday, and the whole weekend is ahead of me.
