Complaint Thursdays

[SwampD]

I find myself really hoping that this Pokeman thing is just AI's first salvo against humanity, and it starts causing people to step in front of buses or off cliffs.

I got a call at work for a woman who couldn't figure out why her screen was blank on her monitor.  Low and behold, the monitor wasn't turned on.  15 minutes to discover something so rudimentary.  FFS!

I need to travel for work. Sort of unannounced. Kinda knew it was coming. I'm getting no help in arranging the trip. The company I'm heading to, the car rental place, my superiors at work. Nothing..

 

...and my wife is furious.

Dammit. Deleted my original post when i tried to edit it.

 

Walking at lunchtime, I was texting my wife and got self conscious about people thinking I was playing Pokemon so I put my phone away.

Oh wow, what a typo. turinging. unless.... it's a bad alan turing joke. 

 

 

This job search stuff is killing me. Finally got one bite... responded... nothing. I'm impatient and terrified. Had a bloody panic attack this morning and was halfway to work. Convinced myself I'd left the door unlocked. Drove all the way back home. Everything was fine, of course. Then sat in the parking lot crying for a half hour. 

 

Good lord, someone just shoot me and end it.

One year review of a serious medical procedure. Clean bill of health.

Why do I feel like I got the opposite news?

[SwampD]

I still hate low gas prices. Too many damn cars on the road.

Great... And now we are going to have to outlaw semi trucks driving in city centers.

Every third day, there's a mass death reported on the news.  SO so sick of it.

Not sure what you are talking about, but I guess now there is even less reason to turn my TV on tonight.

Yeah.  Save your energy for tomorrow's show; I'm sure there's going to be some red for your host to explain.

Luckily, I don't have to work until next Thursday. Unfortunately, though, I get to take my kid to get an MRI tomorrow and she doesn't take kindly to anesthesia. I get to restrain her for about a half an hour to an hour while she comes out of it. Gonna be sore on Saturday.

 

I won't be watching TV, unless you count Elmo.

Oh, I'm so sorry.  I really hope she gets through it ok.  And you too.  And I hope they find nothing.

Thanks. Just a routine check up. They won't find anything. We couldn't be so lucky. We have binders and binders filled with reports telling us that she has nothing. :lol:

THIS.  I tried to do my normal walk around the park this evening since it was finally under 90 degrees, and kept running into clumps of idiots meandering about, staring at their phones.

:lol:  I did the same this evening!

 

My computer at work has apparently decided that the Aud Club (but not SabreSpace) should be blocked from their network, making it difficult to keep up on the threads here.  Boo.

Maybe I'll change my tune on this in a week when I get my first iPaphone, but I think almost every website looks like dogchit lately. They have all changed to this overly simplistic milquetoast boring garbage. You have to scroll down to see any kind of information, if there even is any. No creativity.

 

I already quit on TV. Maybe it's time to quit the internees as well.

aaaand that is why every web design/ad company I ask for a job tells me I'm too creative to work there. 

 

Barf. 

[dEnnis the Menace]

told to do a proof of concept for something at work, that really shouldn't require a proof of concept.  Got a piece of equipment in for said proof of concept, with no guidance, missing the most important parts, and no paperwork...yayyyy  <_<

Just had two more former students ask me to do independent studies with them next semester.

 

I'm not teaching next semester, because I figured I'd have a job and have moved and such. Nope. My heart is broken. If only I could've just made it by teaching two classes. I feel like I'm doing the wrong thing again.
