My morning

[bktheirregular]

Approximate way things have gone today:

Me:

scan scan scan copy

scan scan scan copy

scan scan claw staple scan copy

scan check discrepancy scan scan copy

scan scan clear jam clear jam clear jam clear jam clear jam scan scan copy

catch breath

Big Boss: (leaning over shoulder, sharply) "What's the holdup here?"

Me: "...what?"

Big Boss: (even more sharply) "Why aren't you scanning?"

Me: muttering about having to catch breath before diving back into it

Big boss walks away.

Me: scan scan clear jam clear jam clear jam swear to god the next time he breathes fire down my neck I get busy with a brick and a ferret and two square feet of sandpaper and three pints of sulfuric acid scan claw staple scan clear jam scan copy

I'd go for two quarts of sulfuric acid, myself.

But that's just me.

Grrrrr.

Is Big Boss technology illiterate? The phobic type?

If so, two words: paper jam.

Most tech support people would walk away.

If not, I could *probably* supply the ferret. :)

Hee. Sorry to be amused by your misfortune, but you wrote about it in such a funny way it made me giggle. :)

I like the brick idea...
