I'm having a hard time snapping to it on this fine June Monday.
I'll confess that so far, I've spent the entire morning browsing youshouldhaveseenthis.com. What does it say about me that I was completely familiar with over 90%
of the list? I'm going to go out on a limb and answer... nuthin good. Internet
shenanigans always remind me of Kelly, my favorite little IT metal head
in the building. So far, his job has been spared, even though his
department has been cut (and cut again) close to the bone as corporate
tries to rein in spending. So he's busy as hell and I don't see him as much these days. In fact, as a cost-cutting measure, corporate recently distributed a list called, "When and When Not to Call IT."
Here's a sneak peak at what made the "When Not to Call IT" list:
1. When the printer indicates that it is out of paper.
2. When the printer indicates that there is paper jam.
3. When you or your office mate has a mysterious looking rash.
4. When you are a lazy moron who doesn't understand the difference between a computer and say, an Easy Bake Oven.
OK, so only the first two were real. But still. It's a pretty sad
commentary on the general helplessness of corporate workers
(particularly those in the fashion world). They should follow it up with
a brochure called When To Call Your Mommy (subheading) Cause No One Here Gives A Crap.
