last friday - the plotter died. got ahold of a tech guy to come and look at it. He didn't show.
so this morning - on the phone and seems there was a "miscommunication" - he said he was coming today. Of course, no show - so I have to call again tomorrow and do some yelling. He has one more chance - then I start calling someone else
meanwhile -- we have a 'special printer' for doing barcode labels. Shipping guy comes into my office this morning - says he'll need about 100 labels for an order going out end of the week. Ok, so I figure - run the labels while I'm working on the invoiceing.
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. Freaking 'special printer' starts screwing up. ARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!! After 5 hours of @#*%ing with it - and e-mails back/forth with another tech company - I end up just resetting the factory defaults. and it works. YEAAAAAAA. the only thing I can figure is that someone (maybe even me) hit some buttons accidently which sent the "special printer' into some sort of schizophrenic mode.
Meanwhile - I still have the invoicing to do --- ARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHH - the printer connected to that freaking system isn't working either. It's out of stupid toner and the person in charge of ordering toner forgot to order some.
by now I have a headache and say the hell with overtime today - I'm going home at regular time.
sooooooo, I get home, take the dogs out, get the wood stove going. Now I have to bring in some wood - but some of the pieces are pretty large and need to be split. On the last log, it splits beautifully down the middle and drops on my foot. OWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!
Take a deep breath. Relax. Bring in the wood, feed the cats, put down fresh water for the dogs/cats. Oh yeah, one more thing to do - reset some mouse traps
:eyes: yeah - I snapped one on my thumb.
That's it. I'm not going anywhere, doing anything more tonight\
p.s. and how was your day?

3. I am SO sorry that your day has been awful! |
|
At least yours is over.....mine isn't!
I'm waiting for the phone to ring, or a PM to arrive.......
Nothing happening there, and I'm unhappy......
So what to do? I am at loose ends.......
I can't go down to the beach for a photo shoot, cause it's covered in raw sewage!
Why is it I let these stupid little inconsequential things bother me?
:banghead:
