Wait, Your seasonings are in the pantry, Most people keep them in the cabinet right by the stove.........

Dude.... The Pantry alone.................. Not even going to say anything. The bottles on the right need to be turned so that you can read them........

OCD sure talks tough on here where his wife is not. :) Pam should be in front of the bagged product, I can't even read what that is placed in there like that. Do people really live with that unorganized???

@Quinc, Are you using the CD with the drivers from ATP or downloads from their webpage? There as been updates to the software so make sure you have the newest version. I have no issues with my Epic/Win7 combo that I downloaded from ATPs site

So a few weeks ago my jetta started over heating. Seemed like it was a thermostat, but after replacing that it appears that my water pump is probably shot. Well in Germany it's a good idea to run the water pump off the timing belt and stuff 500 components on top of the timing belt cover, including a motor mount... Unwilling to get into that clusterduck right now, I parked the jetta and I've been driving my 94 Chevy 1500.

Two days ago I'm heading in to work and it starts overheating. Great. Find out that the water pump has developed a leak. Just my luck. Two vehicles, two shot water pumps. Luckily GM decided that it would be smart to stick the water pump in plain view and run it with the accessory belt. Thank god they didn't hire any German engineers to design their cooling system. $30 later at the parts store I have a new pump. I get the old one out and compare it to the new one, not the same pump. FML. The truck is in pieces and the jetta is basically undriveable. Now I get to put the bad water pump back on the truck, get the correct one, and then take it all apart again.

I should be at the lake right now tuning carbs, not dicking around with vehicles.

I work for a company where most of the staff is commissioned based and we rely heavily on online technology. I hate when something goes down/has a bug, and the entire company feels the need to barge into my office and interrupt me one by one or email me (distracting me from actually fixing the problem) to report the same freaking issue over and over again, even after an email announcement goes out telling everyone the status of the current situation.

I have alerts when things go down, and as the IT guy, I can generally see what's occurring in the log files and viewing code in WAY more depth than your weak attempt to try and explain to me what you think is going on.

LOL, on that note, it's amazing when some one reports not being able to access a site I just blocked from being accessed on our network. LOLCATZ has nothing to do with your daily responsibilities. They can't get wifi on their phones, I wish I could jam the signal to keep them off of them. Don't think that's legal though.

Too funny...same complaint in our office. Our firewall blocks the stuff I actually need for my job and lets through the junk we don't. I get the IT responsibilities in our office because I'm the youngest and actually know what "home row" is. Seriously, if you ask the AARP corner in our office what home row is, the most common answer is what the supreme court just gave equal marriage rights to. Our towers/monitors are on a corporate lease system and I'm the lucky guy that gets to help the office fossils transfer their personal files every 2 years when new equipment arrives. One guy literally loaded my entire 1gb thumb drive with porn to transfer....just images...who saves that chit?!? Better questions, why are you being paid to do this? Manager knows about it and it's turned into a running joke. Now when I transfer his files, everyone wants to share the thumb drive.

Started a new job which I'm certified for by state and federal government. Boss said 1 week of company training to get associated with most clients.

2 days of training and I'm off on my own until September/October.




Alrighty then.
