Am check-in all week. Exhaustion will be mine. There is more paperwork to do! Yay, paperwork. (Or not.) Figured out an hours problem this evening on instinct -- when there was nothing in the dialed hours exactly 35 hours, nor exactly 17.5 hours, I took a look at the formula for the hours, and found that it was my formula that was off, not the hours entered. Glad I found it when we did, or we'd still be there trying to figure out what was up...

I'm getting less blindly trusting of the system, especially when I know that there have been recent problems with the spreadsheets, and any time it's unprotected, problems creep in...

Though *of course* nobody *ever* messes with it.... (Wow. Parenting snark works in the workplace, too!)

Heh, heh.

"But all I did was get some new wallpaper pictures and a play a couple 'Net games and watch some movies and change all the computer sounds to cool Bart Simpson phrases! I didn't download ANYTHING!")

That's verbatim, right?

There's a story out there on the internet about a "terrorist attack" on a university computer. The terrorist? The luser, who did not understand that download = download.

Not *exactly* verbatim. Condensing, mild paraphrasing, and "typical" rather than "specific" online activities, but certainly more authentic than a lot of what you see on "docudramas".
