Friday night musings

First of all I would like to say... I had one fuck of a internet day.

I was having issues with all the new and improved phones, photocopy machines/fax/scan to email/and network etcfk! at work.

Did you know, I repeat did you know..that once you have committed all your office equipment to be Internet based...you are screwed up the ying yang.

I didn't have a phone today
I didn't have any internet access on my computer today
I couldn't print anything on the printer...because it's part of the interfuckingnet photocopy machine from hell.
And it screwed up our network, and nobody could get on my computer...ha and ha.

I sat there going...okay I can do some filing. I could not do one thing that didn't need either emailing, printing or something on our server. ha and ha again.

It brought our office to a halt.

I personally think it was all you guys farting around on face book, or bloggers doing their thing, who took the breath out of my internet. I'm looking at all of you.. because it was hell.

No phone, no internet, no copier, no email, no nadda....damit to hell. I was flabbergasted, I had to use the fax machine, which is still not connected to the photocopier (but will be next week) it was my only way communicating to the real world. So if everything goes down again after the fax machine is incorporated with the photocopier/slash everything else... I may as well go home and put on a Joe Cocker album and call it a day.

Remember when faxing was the cats ass. Communication at it's best. Now it's your last resort.
Opp's remember telex? No, you aren't that old.

Gord and I are just going out on the back deck to enjoy a very warm evening. I got some candles going because it's already dark, and I will make a pizza and we can have it outside. It's a beautiful fall night.

Oooo I'm loving the look you've got going on in here!

I'm not guilty of internet theft either, weren't me, nope. Sometimes it's hard to remember how we managed without all this technology.

Lucky you for being able to sit on your deck on a warm evening. The skeeters are so bad here we can't even breath outdoors in the daytime, nights are killers.

I would swear your server is Comcast!! They keep calling wanting me to subscribe to their phone service. Not for me, cable and internet are more than sufficient. Looking to leave the internet service for another. Good luck in the future.
