Wherein my opinion of relying on other people gets more confirmation it doesn’t need.
So remember when I was looking forward to the day shift because I could catch the decent buses going to and from work? Well apparently, they neglected to make that the case on Saturdays. Now, Sundays is understandable–bus service sucks on a good day then anyway. But I distinctly recall … Read the rest

Put a wall around Quebec. Then fill it with water.
Or at least put a wall around it. Mayhap then the separatist movement will be content. It’s apparently not good enough, after all, when someone who isn’t even from Canada and has already learned english, and *only* came to Canada to play hockey, doesn’t speak french. Sacreligious, I’m tellin ya! … Read the rest

Where’s my invitation to the Britney pity party?
You know she’s getting exactly what she’s after when now she’s got a church pretty much begging for its members to send her love during her supposedly troubled period. Keeping in mind, of course, it’s a troubled period she brought on herself. This is why I have to laugh at … Read the rest

Wake me up when it’s over, m’kay?
They expect me to be in training until 2, and then in a meeting ’til 4. Which means by the time I take my first phone call, it could be 5. This is gonna make for one hell of a long night…

What a horrible fan am I.
I promised I’d blog more about my hockey team, then promptly fell off the wagon for all of 2 games. I should really make up for that–for the record, they were games in which we both got crushed and did the crushing, so at least I’m missing games on both … Read the rest

Can we vote for a law against morons in power now?
And they wonder why people don’t speak up when shit happens. The Western University of Oregon, in a brilliant act of absolute unrivaled genius, came about *that* close to expelling a student for violating one of the university’s policies. And, for the record, it was a policy that basicly said … Read the rest

My interwebs were one huge clusterfuck.
It, apparently, started last night at some point, and didn’t get straightened out until about 6:00 this morning. Not sure if anything I did to correct it actually helped or not, but at least in doing so I could tell it wasn’t anything within my control that was screwed. Translation: … Read the rest

I promised you a rant, and here it be.
Warning: this could get very, very long-winded. Possibly requiring it not be posted until the end of my shift–taking one look at how busy we are right now (35 people currently on hold, just for the record) with about 20 minutes before I have to actually start, it might take … Read the rest

Even Dell technicians hate Dell technicians. And Sympatico, and Microsoft, and…
Welp, as some of you know and others of you guessed I’m sure by now, the formerly Vista and now XP computer is up and running. Well, partially. No wireless network support and there’s still a rather lengthy list of devices Windows doesn’t have drivers for. But I’m slowly piecing … Read the rest

James 3, Microsoft 0.
And all because of a little CD HP didn’t send me. Round 1, external HD goes on the blink. Or so I thought. Turns out Windows just decided it suddenly didn’t know what it was. Well, after getting frustrated with that, I decided to go right on ahead and start … Read the rest
