ATTN – Working public: If you use instant messaging at work, please disable sounds on it. Your coworkers hate hearing about it every time you send and receive a message. No seriously, I want to murder you after a solid hour of listening to your IM sounds. I’m only half kidding. Get some headphones if [...]

I had a savant moment just now at work. I fixed this one device by adding a line in its running configuration that wasn’t there before because it “looked right”. I can’t explain my reason for adding the line, I’ve never messed with that part of a router’s config before. I don’t know exactly why [...]
Guess who’s getting a promotion? That’s right… this guy. It’s sort of only a title promotion (“Tier 2″ of my current position), but not at all really. I say that because I don’t think there’s any pay raise at all, but I get to do a lot more cool shit. Right now I push a [...]
I don’t usually post video either (Sup, Bri). But this vid has been playing relentlessly on the channel we have on at work today. I don’t know what’s so amusing about it. Something about watching a viking sing Greensleeves I guess ever since Matt introduced me to Amon Amarth, anything viking related has been funnier [...]

We do this not only for the sake of convenience, but because cut/pasting ticket or device information is a lot easier and more reliable than dictating it over the phone. I’ve noticed and interesting trend lately. A lot of the middle aged people talk [...]
Apparently the sky is falling. In discrete packets of snow. A lot of it. Luckily work is treating it like the second coming and putting everyone up in a local hotel if they don’t feel like driving home. After carefully weighing the benefits of driving home in traffic that’s literally backed up a couple dozen [...]
I got my review at work a few days ago, and it went pretty well in my opinion. My boss sat me down and asked me how I thought I was doing. I’d been dealing with some… “reservations”… at work recently so I thought I’d lay it all down on the line. I told him [...]
So I sauntered into the restroom here at work. I sauntered with purpose. I knew what had to be done, and I was going to do it. Iwas going to be in and out, and nothing could deter me. This is the attitude one should have upon entering the men’s room. This is for no [...]
