Last round of these. I had forgotten how funny some of these calls were!

Dear User: Minimizing IE and then restoring it does not, in fact, refresh the page. Next!

Some of my favorite Help Desk moments. I have too many to add them as one post.

Talked to the recruiter at my previous employer. They want me to quit my new job that I have been doing for only 9 days at $10K a year more than they were paying me to come back for a technical writing position they have open. They even offered to match my new salary. I very politely told them to go to Hell.

So, I’ve been at my new job for a week. It’s pretty cool. Everyone is nice, they treat me with respect, and I am doing my job, not someone else’s. I’ve noticed a significant improvement in my moods since I started here. The job is somewhat challenging because this place has customized everything, including Word. It makes me miss normal M$ problems. Oh well. So I don’t know what I am doing yet. It’s only been a week and they seem to like me here. :-)

I have 7 days (including today) left at my current job, and I don’t feel like doing anything. Part of it is that I hate the people I have to do stuff for. Another part of it is that I hate this job. Yet another part of it is I just don’t care anymore. I can’t wait until I am done here and moved on to something better. Well, I hope it’s better. :)
