Isn't that also known as the eighth circle of hell?

Lost the cap on my front tooth yesterday at the hands of some beef jerky. New cap looks better than the old one (even I can't tell it's there by looking at it), but it should for frickin' $315 for what is, in essence, a pinky-nail sized dab of epoxy.

No mute button.

On the one station that has it near me, the speakers are for the general area, nt just the pump you are using. It really doesn't bother me all that much, which is surprising.

People who have no idea how their computers and software work other than the on/off really annoy me. I suspect most people have never ever even seen a command line.

My Garmin 305 seems to have died.

It will only turn on when it's plugged in, which isn't terribly conducive for trying to use it while running.

Have you tried a really long extension cord?

Just found out via email that a guy I hired in with (nice guy and in another department) just got a healthy promotion. I've met all the requirements for a basic promotion for 1.5 years, but get stonewalled every time I bring it up to my boss. These are the kinds of things make a guy review and update his resume.

there are 5 file types to create a shape file, I need all 5... if you don't send them to me, then your project is either not going to show up on my screen, or it will project in the middle of the ocean. I can't analyze projects in the middle of the ocean, my authority does not extend that far. I can't magically project the approved polygon on your plans so no, I have no clue if you could color inside the lines. And no I won't approve anything unless I can make a comparison so I don't go to jail if you made a mistake.

6 out of 7 today, all of them are trying to build things in the ocean.

When I run into that, I tend to just smirk a bit. I think I annoyed the office manager when I did that earlier today (I'm our IT dept.)

Next time I don't feel like doing something assigned to my role, I'm just going to quietly dump it on to someone in the other department, let it sit for 8 months, and tell their boss that I assumed they were doing it.
