Got locked out of the system. Alas. Logged in under an alias. Working on docs and training my backup/replacement. I think next we go to her cube and make sure that she can get everything done that she needs to get done and knows how to repeat it, because I think that the only reason that people can do some of the things that they do is because I've got the settings right, and if they don't know how to duplicate that, then there's going to be a world of hurt when I wind up going part-time.
Need to teach her my crunch-the-Oracle spreadsheet thingy.

Aunt-Fayoumis wants to plot a road trip sometime. Hmm. She wished me happy birthday; Dad sent an e-mail last night, and said he was sending me some cool fishing line. Mama has a new computer.

New rule: if the supervisor can feel your damn bass when your vehicle is outside the building, and the supervisor is at least 40 feet inside the closed building, in a room which borders on the outside air only on the ceiling (there is a break room and a hallway between the front of the building and us), your music is too loud and you need to turn it off.
I could not work with that going on. Fortunately for them, they turned it off before I got out there to turn it off for them.
Sims of Gor -- oh god no.

There are two dodgy characters sitting in front of me and whispering and giggling. They don't seem to be aware that they are in fact sitting in front of a supervisor, and that I can hear them. Not aware of their surroundings. Nope. Not at all.

I have hot tea and documentation and Headphones of Oblivion, so I don't really care, except I can see them whispering.

My rather desperate note to Cox:
Do you have dial-up internet available for outage situations like this? My roommate is going crazy, I'm going crazy, and my apartment complex has no one we can sneak wireless from. There's always checking the important stuff from work or a coffee shop, but we all know why the 'net was born.
I'd also like to inquire about a prorating of the bill this month because of the outage. I can see a few hours downtime here and there, but this is getting painful.
