Kristen, I've got a favor to ask.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

user number two keeps trying to login even though he locked himself out about 36 attempts ago, the jackass

I was probably that person yesterday, growling "Work, you bastard," at the computer.

Well, if you asked for a password reset and then CONTINUED to try logging in about 50 times for the next 20 minutes while waiting for the help desk to respond, yes, you deserved to be smacked with a rolled-up newspaper.

Okay, seriously, I think the moron just locked himself out again.

AUGH. NEED MOAR COFFEE NOW PLZ.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I called the help desk the other day when I got logged out and couldn't log in. The help desk guy on the phone was totally flummoxed and tried everything...until I realized I used the wrong login. Sorry, help desk.

They already think I'm stupid because the lower volume on my telephone doesn't work, and I accepted their solution of "turn up the volume."

Kat, you have email! I think. Probably in more than one place.

I don't mind calls that are ultimately user error, because that's the overwhelming majority. I mean, I almost called the main company help desk the other day because I couldn't get on our intranet site. I finally realized my Caps Lock was on while I was entering my password, although I would have sworn up and down that it was off.

It's just. Some people are walking, talking, e-mailing User Errors.

So very aptly put.

Well, that casts the whole, "Around 3 pm, Robert Goulet shows up and messes with your stuff," commercial in a far more disturbing light

Hah! OMG, that's funny. But I LOVE the commercial with the bunny feet! It's so cute!!

Nora Ephron's Six Stages of Email is pretty funny.
