I understand that you, Building Services, get busy and sometimes lose track of things. But when you put in a ticket to move a printer on October 26th, and let it hang out in your system before approving it to bump over to our system on November 16th, and the only detail it has is that the move is scheduled for the 23rd, I am not going to immediately assume you didn't mean November 23rd, but October 23rd. IN THE PAST, you morons.

Dear Ignorant Douche,

Stop using the word tower. You don't know what it means. Don't ask me if Hewlett Packard makes a good "tower" because you have not the faintest idea what you're asking me. Asking if HP makes a good tower is a lot like asking if Pizza Hutt makes good boxes.

Sooooo.( Have some tl;dr-ness. )

TL;DR - I am a tester on a high profile project to create a semi-automated address request form for the customer address maintenance team (of which I am a member) for a giant industrial corporation. The second phase of said form was supposed to be good to go today. It was not. Project-running guy forgot to put a few important details into the cutover schedule for golive, but the dev team who promoted everything to production is the same one that's been working on it the whole time so they should know what's needed. Whoever you blame, it's not working. Now I get to come in two hours early tomorrow!

In conclusion, I'm feeling like this.

Dear JackArse,

If you tell me ONE MORE TIME that you think you are "the most IT literate person out of everyone on this floor" I think I will rip your face off with my bare hands. If you're ~so smart~ then how come you managed to delete your mailbox? How come you managed to send your archived messages to an archive that you don't have open in Outlook? How come you looked at your autoarchive settings, saw it was pointing to the C drive and dutifully attached to an H drive archive, then called me and told me that my department had screwed up? And finally, if you're THAT SMART, how come when you did an export from one PST to another, you - by your own admission - didn't see the option to ignore duplicates because you "just clicked through without reading any of the boxes"?

'IT literate', if we must insist on using such a term, is generally understood to mean that you know what you're doing. Evidently you don't, sir, so I hope you die a terribly slow painful death. And if you tell me one more time that you know what you're doing, I shall tell you that I'm taking a long lunch break and invite you to clear my call queue out in my absense.

Thanks for ruining my Friday AND my Monday.
