Creatures

It was pretty boring today, besides the customer who had a malware infestation, and decided that a new computer would fix his problem. Also an infestation of another kind. See below...





I am not sure what happend to the CPU fan, but it looked like some one used it as a helmet.

Info

Well Sunday is usually my day off, so you won't see many updates on Sunday. I am planning on updating my visual relevant posts with pics, so hope to see those soon.

Timing is Everything

So after a ride on the subway (which smelled like pee), I get to work and my boss has a project for me. The project is a unit loaded with the usual suspects; spyware, adware, trojans, and viruses. No problem right? Wrong I had two hours to finish the job. At around the two hour mark I was half-way done with the machine and the customer calls to check the status. I say "Yeah it should be done very soon, I'll give you a call once I'm done.". Waddaya know, the customer comes in without me calling. He proceeds to throw a fit to a few of my bosses, and complains about my work. Well they (the customer and my bosses) come to an agreement, if the computer isn't finished by tonight all the work will be refunded. I completed the unit on time, but it wasn't a blast getting rushed like that. So to all superiors, please do not quote times on projects, when you don't understand the scope of the work.

How, Why?

Why does this hard drive smell like a hotdog?

A start for a blogger

This is the beggining of my tales of human error. I work for a very large tech support company, and every day there is a new situation I come home with, wether it be stupidity, ignorance, humor, or just people being rude. Well I decided to share those stories with everyone. So stay tuned, this is day one.
