They say most of your brain shuts down in cryo-sleep.
And it would have to, wouldn't it?
According to the geniuses in survey-land, almost all tech based insider sabotage is the result of "disgruntled, paranoid, late, argumentative" people who have been fired from a position in IT. Perhaps my oh so trusty webhost sent someone home early with a little pink slip and a grudge?
Of course, their so-called customer service has left me fairly disgruntled, argumentative, and paranoid myself. So I can't blame their personal wage slaves for balancing the scale. Then again, that's MY money their messing with and I'm not feeling all that generous. Yo! Former disgruntled IT dude! Leave ronomi.com alone or you'll find me on your doorstep some day…
In other news, welcome to the world of "surprise you're it" browser bouncing. Also known as "you installed what?". I get a call today…"Save me Obi-tech! My computer has gone to the dark side!" Turns out he wanted to "live on the edge" and install a shiny happy browser to impress the new hire in the cubby to the right with his amazing technical abilities. Well, they installed yapbrowser. Oh yes. And they even had the sound on. I'm sure the new hire was impressed.
Might I suggest to any and all idiots out there that being easily distracted by shiny objects may be hazardous to your health in a cubicle environment? If you have to push the button, at least do it at home first…unless of course you happen to enjoy kiddie pics and are really jonesing for a pink slip of your own.
