BOLLOCKS

My computer crashed today, although I fanatasised; it didn't physically connect with the floor after I had thrown it across the room in a fit of utter anger.
No, it " crashed" which is a polite euphemism for Windows inability to work reliably. The reason for this of course is well known; when you are jack of all trades you are master of none. They must be SO proud of that calculator & clock.

This time, it did not involve a business call to Sydney ( see previous IT rants )to get them to contact the Auckland team who sit 2 metres from my desk. No ! THAT would be too easy & not nearly as convoluted as required. This time I called our Sydney IT department for help, to be advised that they could do nothing for this piece of software.This is what was going to be needed; They would call Singapore while I was on hold to Sydney,who would then e-mail our team in Auckland ( remember they sit 2 metres away ) to come to my machine & fix it.That was 20 minutes ago & I am still sitting here been unproductive writing this blog entry.
