This was so good I wish I thought of it when I did helpdesk!!

That being said, I wish to gawd our level 1 support would get off my ass. SLA wasn't up until today and I got 3 emails and a phone call asking for the damn laptop. If L1 would read the damn notes, they would see I updated it twice a day stating that facilities haven't gotten off their ass and given me a cube number to drop the system at. Kinda helps when the guy has a desk. It makes it easier to find and beat him senseless with the laptop he has been bitching about.

And it was beautiful that he comes to his desk at my lunch time and wants to know where the keys to the lock are. Gee smart guy. Had you actually been at your assigned desk, you would have gotten my little happy spiel about passwords, locks and big ol fat lip when I smacked you for being a whiney bitch! I was ever so happy to tell L1 to call him back because I am not going to do it. Last thing I need is for him to know my name, face and extension so he can harrass me in person. Thank the gawds I am behind a locked door.

Oh and if one more user calls the lab asking for his laptop, and can't remember who worked on it, well they will have to wait. Apparently me saying I haven't been in the lab all day, there are 7 laptops in stages of either being backed up on the network, being imaged or various states of repair and I don't know the status of his, isn't going to make the answer come magically out of my ass. I don't know. Call friggin help desk and ask for a status. Don't expect me to know which is yours when you can't even tell me who was working on your machine!! And saying, "Well I gave it to one of the guys there" doesn't help me. We have 10 techs. 6 are men. You need to be a bit more specific especially since I am one of the WOMEN here.

Can you tell I have had a day?

It loads, but it's a 1x1 pixel image. We aren't going to be see a damn thing at 1x1.

I, uh, didn't right click to get a bigger image. I should try that. I thought of that as I was typing and..uh...yeah.

Yep, looks like Keenspace barfed, or the author goofed.

I feel your pain. Unfortunately, the users know my name, face, extension, AND where I am. Fortunately, they also know to knock on the door when I've got it closed.

When linking to keenspace, make sure you link the page, not the image. Keen sends 1px images for hotlinks like that. To clear it and actually see the image, you need to refresh on the actual page :)

Thanks for stopping by, and I feeel your pain
