Recycling

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

I spent part of Saturday morning taking some of our old equipment to the local county solid waste authority’s computer recycling drive. They do a couple of these a year, and it’s a good way to get rid of monitors, printers and other hardware that simply doesn’t work any more or doesn’t serve a purpose for us. Usually, I load up at the office, drive up, and drop it off, no big deal. But this time there was quite a crowd. I spent about 30 minutes waiting in line to unload my stuff. I guess a whole lot of people got new PC’s for Xmas, eh? 🙂

    Saw this story over at Just Another Geek’s blog about knowing a few minutes ahead of time that someone’s going to get fired and having to slide into their office and disconnect them from the network while they’re being fired in another office. I’ve had to do that, and it sucks. I work in a…

    I’m a little tired today. I was up later than I should have been trying to fix a problem on Angela’s PC. Everything else on the PC works ok, but neither Outlook or Outlook Express wil open. They get to the splash screen and that’s it. I tried doing everything with Outlook last night, including…
