Browser woes disappearing!

Seems a reboot of the browser was what was needed. Comment Unfolder, I love you so for reading these things, but you wreak havoc upon FireFox, and lo, it must be restarted.

I had a nice productive day at work. I got the reports I was supposed to finish for managers finished, and there was much finishing of reports. I even finished some that were strictly optional. Then I got started on figuring out what I will actually need to do when I am doing the queries that will form the tables that will support the query and/or queries that will create the bloody quarterly reports for the phone goons.

I also handed out the monthly "Bad you: wrong break screen!" report to the managers. Yay for managers.

Homie G was running my job today, so I did have to teach him about some of the tools that our team uses to get the fiendish paperwork related to the team finished up in what approaches a timely fashion. Once he got the hang of them, though, he took the fuck off and was finished way faster than he thought he would be finished. He was bragging to the Pink Lady about the stuff he was using, actually. She was all thrilled with the spreadsheet that she was using, the beta version, and he was using the first release and lording it over her. Hee, hee. Now he and the Pink Lady want me to rotate around all the teams and spend a month with each team learning the jobs and creating tools to help improve the jobs.

Hmm. I should really improve the CI JOAN spreadsheet to isolate the evening dialing portions as well as isolating the afternoon dialing portion. And I should expand it to allow for extended Saturday shifts, to see how that last two hours performs. You know, I could cut it down to hour by hour, and ... erg, that would be a bloody scary damn spreadsheet, but that is what spreadsheets are good for.

The more time I spend at this job with some free time on my hands, the more I find little technological improvements to get things moving along a little better.

isn't a safeword kinda a reset button, anyways?

*mutters*they are just details....mostly...genetic details

Note to self: Having a conversation via internet with someone less than 10 feet away is sign of needs for reset button hitting.

I disagree. (and I suspect bekithewitch would too.)

[identity profile] hcolleen.livejournal.com 2006-10-04 11:31 am (UTC)(link)
disagree with which? The reset button or the details? *smiles sweetly*

[identity profile] hcolleen.livejournal.com 2006-10-04 05:53 pm (UTC)(link)
oh, so very helpful....

disagree all you want...it amuses anyways ;)

[identity profile] hcolleen.livejournal.com 2006-10-04 09:37 pm (UTC)(link)
to amuse or disagree?

I should stop answering questions like that, shouldn't I?

*grins*

/me flashes teeth briefly. (sorry, I only do chimp impressions.)

IIRC my chimpese, it's an appeasement signal. ("I mean you no harm"/"I come in peace")

Commenting by whom? And where do you draw the line between a reset button and a reset pad?
