No it isn't at least by industry standards. It's a little extended but not out of the ordinary unless you are dealing with an obnoxious asshole who thinks the everything can be corrected instantaneously.

tale of the business card scanner

There was a business card scanner on the receptionist's desk. The receptionist was fired, but the scanner stayed. The Operations Manager used the receptionist's old computer to scan business cards. Then one day that computer had to be moved to the server closet. Yes, that computer is also running an always on, fairly important day-to-day operations application. Operations manager refuses to let me install the business card scanner on her computer. She wants it to still be connected to the old computer, the one now in the server closet. OK. I plugged it in. There's no mouse, keyboard, or monitor connected to it. She came to me the next day and said, I wanted to scan some business cards, but the screen said "Open Solaris NAS" or something like that.

I asked her to buy me a new HD because one of the HDs in the NAS is faulted, but I think she might be waiting until she can scan business cards before she places the order.

I had a replacement drive already, but it didn't work. Here's a dumb think you heard on the board: some guy built a NAS with WD15EARS drives.

I dont know... it might be legit. on a really nice day with a deep blue sky, if you look up and just stare you can see the microscopic floaties floating around in your eyeball juices. looks like ghostly translucent squiggles. might happen with sperm. we need to ross to test this out for science

30something:Are you a natural redhead?
Girl: No.

i showed this to my old buddy doad and he encouraged me to post it

so in my timesheet app, my last week's hours were REJECTED. i didn't even know that was a thing until now. here's the note that was on every entry on my sheet.
Travis, please list number of ACTUAL hours worked (including lunch time deductions) each day. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks,-amy
i tried my best to channel our lord and saviour mr. budd in my email response
Hi Amy,

You mentioned something about my timecard the other day. I just noticed it now in BigTime as I was looking at submitting this week's.

Bigtime is where I keep my records of my hours. If I were to re-do last week's, it would only become less accurate.

Because you didn't discuss this with me at all, I can only assume from the notes in Bigtime ("please list number of ACTUAL hours worked (including lunch time deductions)") that you are accusing me of working less hours than I entered because I have been taking lunch out of the office lately. I actually spent quite a bit of time last week afterhours getting up to speed on Q-sys and Lua.

As much as I wish it were otherwise I am the person who can best fill in my timesheet. If you think you know what I am spending my time and attention on better, you're welcome to do the sheet for me (it would free up more engineering time for me), but I don't see how that is possible.

Otherwise please don't send me notes like this which break my focus and cause me unnecessary extra work during my limited engineering time.

have a good weekend,
sincerely

if you don't follow up with whatever follow up you receive from that colossal load of bullshit you're so getting foed for life. you simply must provide some form of substantial closure for shit that heavy, otherwise you're a complete fucking faggot douche.
