In which there’s lolcats.
I’ve been giggling at icanhascheezburger in between calls for the past hour or so; it’s the only thing keeping me sane at work this evening.
I have a really hard time supporting people who can’t read (srsly, it’s really hard) or who make up their own words for things (there’s no such thing as an “Internet cable”) or who keep talking over me telling me to slow down or that they’re “computer geeks” (meaning computer illiterate) instead of just hushing up and listening.
If a customer tells me to go slow, I’ll go slow. If they tell me they’ve never been on a computer before, I’ll do everything in itsy bitsy baby steps. But when they just won’t shut the fuck up, or keep interrupting me to tell me about totally unrelated crap from last week that they saw on their sister’s computer, it drives me batshit! PARTICULARLY when I’m the only tech on the clock and I’ve got seven calls in the queue!
Thank God for the Intarwebz and all its funny websites, that’s all I’m sayin’.

Praise be intarwebz for they keep us sane at work. Man, without the internet, I’d be profiled as “The Shooter” at work. You know what I’m talking about. Every office has that guy or gal known as “The Shooter.” It’s the person (or people) that walk around with the bloodshot eyes and the twitchy finger… the one you know is gonna show up some day with a gun and go postal. I bet the internet is the only thing keeping that guy from offing his coworkers. So another round of praise for the internet. Without it, we’d all be victims of “The Shooter.”
