athenaltenaWell, the good news is that The Plant is moving out of the Bronze Age technology-wise at last and getting a new computer system.
The bad news is that the people installing it are totally incompetent.
Now for the most part I've accepted that I'm "The Chick" at work, but today I just about wanted to scream at the half dozen or so guys who suddenly invaded the place, moved everything, took multiple coffee breaks instead of working, made a mess of the place and didn't even get the thing they were supposed to be working on fully installed, meaning that at least until Wednesday we're running in Light Mode without a computer monitor and with even less space than usual.
And considering that the booth is claustrophobic with one person in it, with six very tall guys, one 5'4" girl and a bunch of junk it's even worse, so I made myself scarce before someone stepped on me. And yes, someone almost did.
So yeah, a little bit frustrating. And that was before they all ran off promptly at five despite not having finished installing it -- and leaving me alone with the mess to clean up!
*points to icon* My thoughts right now.
