Wednesday and working with no laptop
Today was chaotic to say the least. Since I do not have a laptop with my nice Lotus Notes, Sametime, FTP, ect. software for my easily accessible crap I check and work on every day; I had to be on the phone aalllll daaaayyy long. I called for an update, leaving a voicemail. I call another person to give them an update. I call on a conference call. I call my bosslady to give her updates as the day progress's. I normally can just IM her as I go but not today.
I start the morning as normal (for this week). I get my daughter to school, come back in the office starting my second cup of coffee. I was thinking this would be a simple day to allow me to update on some of my interface building. Yes still trying to catch up on those precious projects. But to no avail. I finally was able to install VPN in my home pc to at least get access to OPENLINK. I did, finally. I then get baraged with phone calls concerning issues. It ranged from facility issues to a follow-up on an old project that a peer never followed up. Regardless I was on the freaking phone all day. I was surprised when bosslady finally cracked this afternoon. She was on vacation all last week and Monday. She missed the batch charge file fiasco last week. She told me 'what is going on with all these issues? I can't work on my projects, due to all these issues that keep coming up.' Yeah, welcome to the jungle.
On a lighter note. I was able to eat out with the family tonight. After taking the son to therapy this evening; daughter, son and I met my wife to eat. No-one felt like cooking tonight. It was nice to do something different.
Oh get this. The 100 gig harddrive I sent with my Laptop? It's not happening. Seems the HP laptops can only handle up to 80 gig harddrives. So, the guy had to pull a brand new PC harddrive out (40 gigs) and slam it in mine. No, they wouldnt give me a new PC. I probably won't get the laptop back till Friday. Bummer.
