Busy, busy..

Good grief. So many things needed tweaked or replaced or just fixed this week that I only really had time to put out fires up until today. Today, in between doing month-end database chores I’m trying to go back and document everything that happened earlier in the week in the helpdesk tracking DB, purchase some stuff to replace the emergency spare parts I like to have laying around that were called into duty this week (monitors mostly), do write-ups and document the product demo I sat through yesterday afternoon, answer email that got set aside during the week, and maybe, if I’m very good and very lucky, I’ll have an empty “to-do” list by 5 so I can start over fresh on Monday.

So if there’s been tech news out there, I assure you, I haven’t read the details enough to comment. 🙂

For someone like me, who doesn’t type real well, it…

    I only thought I was going to be researching those telephone company contracts today. I was partially right. I am dealing with both our telephone equipment vendor and the local telephone company, but not about the data T1, it’s the voice T1 that’s throwing fits. Monday we had a short period of time where no…

  • Proof positive

    Last week, we talked about how much people listen to outside IT people compared to internal people. Remember that? This morning we have exhibit #1: I got an email from one of my users. One of his business contacts had forwarded him an email about virus warnings that she had gotten from their IT Department….

  • Word 2003 upgrade bug

    Over the last few years I’ve done a few upgrades to Office 2003, and we’ve been rolling out Office 2003 at work (finally!) over the last few weeks, so how is it that today was the first time we ran into this bug with character units? Weird. But, there you have it, if you ever…
