Descent in to Hell : Day 6 – The fire! It burns! The goggles do nothing!

Nothing really changed today. Oh, I got access to more stuff I don’t need despite the fact my request for my access to things I do need apparently being lost, this requiring me to start all over again. Wonderful. Today was one of those days where I eagerly accepted assignments to be out in the

Descent in to Hell – Day 5 : Suicide Seems Like a Viable Option…

Where did we leave off? Oh, right, I didn’t have any access. -I still don’t have any access. They claim I need to take a couple of SAP lessons. I took the lessons. It’s recorded in my file that I took them. They have just as much access to that file as I do. Your

Descent to Hell – Day 4 : Die, Darkman, Die!

An homage to what might be the funniest, most mailed in movie title ever. Let us begin. -I have SAP access! The bad news is that I have access only to Quality Assurance stuff, which isn’t part of my job description. Attempts to get that rectified went as unanswered as everything else is by the

Descent in to Hell – Day 3 : Hell’s Rising

Day 2 was uneventful, so I skipped it. -Oh look, I STILL don’t have access. My manager has us going in to SAP a completely different way, but I find myself wondering why this other way in exists…and why I for some reason have transaction access through this route. This seems quite wrong. SHOCKINGLY, it

Descent in to Hell – Day 1

I figured I may as well document the ‘progress’ with the switch over to SAP when something happens. Let’s cover today : -Oh look, I still don’t have access. A new email from corporate support, telling me that I need to apply for added access myself. Perhaps that would have been handy information to have

This should end well…

Tomorrow, the big software switch happens at work. This has been in the works for quite some time. I’ve also been dreading this for quite some time. I’m not alone in that. I’m also seriously considering filling up a flask with whiskey and taking that to work tomorrow. Is it too late to start shooting

I don’t care where you went to buy gas

I’m a narcissist. I use Twitter. I have a blog. I clearly like talking about myself and smashing others. Goddammit, I am rather fond of me. Now, it’s not ALL about me…I will actually decide to step down from my self-constructed ivory tower and read what other people are doing. Maybe I don’t do it

Shit Show

No, this actually ISN’T about the hockey riots in Vancouver (may everyone identified as responsible end up spending a month or two as a cock pincushion for the rest of the boys on the cell block). Nope, it’s a work rant. Yay! A work rant! Everything is has been too goddamn positive regarding the job!

Awful song discoveries

Since apparently I felt it was right to subject you people to Rebecca Black’s opus Friday, it seems appropriate that I continue to offer equally atrocious sins against music for your…pleasure. While Rebecca is a thirteen year old girl, and therefore stupid, today’s offender has no such excuses. Steven Tyler has been around awhile. He’s

Gas Price Frustration – A Rebuttal

Since I don’t particularly feel like leaving a multiple paragraph reply to the post over on Shaun’s blog that sparked this topic, I’ll put my rebuttal here. Shaun was talking about complaints about gas prices, and how they’re effectively futile in terms of creating change. I agree with that part. What I don’t agree with
