Weird Science

[LPMiller]

I was going to go with some Alan Parsons Project today, but this song sort of got stuck in my head.

I’m currently finding my coworkers very annoying this week.

I have one that likes to surf the web all the time. So I occasionally block his sites on the firewall, then unblock them later as my mood allows. This forces him to actually work, and he doesn’t like that, so he complains that the firewall is ‘broke again.’

He still hasn’t figured that out yet. He thinks we need a new firewall.

The other one, who pretty much cannot do anything without talking non stop, asked me, “hey, does a computer need memory to run?”

This is from a PC repair tech, mind you.

At the very least, this gives me some personal job security, I suppose.
