That's horror story is not too terribly bad. One time I had to drive out to montgomery (when I was doing contracting repair work) to fix a computer in a computer lab at a highschool that's sound did not work.

There is no justice in this world and some people should be shot.

BTW, the person who called up was the schools technology coordinator... ... ... JESUS CHRIST.
