Although I'm not sure why I want it to be Friday -- I have to WORK this weekend! And I am so looking forward to that. Sigh...
Let me start by saying where I sit, I have the only computer that can manage our front door entry system where I work so I get the privilege of updating it and managing it. The only problem is I really haven't been given any training so I am winging it. Do you foresee problems? Yeah, me too!
Well, I recently got a new computer and there was lots of data being transferred to it, etc. Someone from the corporate office came and scooted the new smaller tower computer to the very edge of my desk and attached it to a cord from the wall to "receive" the information I needed to continue taking care of the front door system. The cord was removed, the computer put back in place and business was back to normal.
From then on, the front door has not worked in several areas. I deleted, re-added, reconfigured and there was just nothing I could do anymore.
Again, the man from corporate comes back out. The first thing he does is pick up the unattached cord and dangle it asking me why it wasn't plugged in?? Well, I didn't know it was SUPPOSED to be plugged in. I had never had it plugged in before?
That's because, apparently, it was always plugged in being that I had a floor computer tower versus a desk tower and I needed to plug it in every time there was an error, change, addition, etc.
Umm, I didn't know that! GRRRR!!!
I feel like SUCH a blonde. If that isn't bad enough, one of my co-workers witnessed this and told me a joke:
"What do you call a blonde with 2 black eyes....? Someone that had to be told twice!"
HUH?
Then a later joke was..."What do you call a blonde with 1 black eye....? A quick-learner!"
Please, forgive me for not falling off my chair with laughter!!!
ANYWAY, my Mom had a minor surgery yesterday so keep her in your prayers. I want her to keep up her always good spirits and not worry about anything.
Also, today is my good friend Joy's 29th Birthday AGAIN (wink, wink)! Say Happy Birthday to Joy! She is a snoopy lover so this is for her:
Welcome to the dumb blonde club!!! Just let it be . . .I fit right in, what with opening the convertible top and listening to the glass break into a million pieces on the computer printer I KNEW was in there . .
And the two days ago, when I got lost on my way to work . . seriously lost, 40 miles lost. (I've driven there every day for 7 weeks)
