A desk, with no instruction book!
On the second day of self employment, my new job brought to me...
A computer which needed setting up!
On the third day of self employment, my new job brought to me...
A printer, which I have now forsook!!
Seriously? What is it with me and technology?
You will be pleased to hear that I finally, with the help of the IT department, got the two screens working, but a thought struck me, does two screens mean that I'll have double the work? Then the very helpful IT department told me they didn't send me a printer and I should go out and get one and install it. No problem! I've done that before, several times. Easy.
Well...
Two printers, those handy swear words, lots of sticky tape, an instruction booklet, some more swear words, more Wi-Fi trouble (it's a wireless printer), more crawling under the desk, a confused dog, and four cups of coffee later, I still don't have a working printer. I know I'm blond but really!! I'm also barred from PC World. Well not so much barred, but when I go through the door, suddenly the place becomes like a deserted town, nothing in sight, not one person in a black shirt with a friendly smile,nobody asking can they help me, no one behind the help desk (I did look over to see if they were hiding) nothing, only an eerie silence and a strange breeze (from them all scarpering out the back door perhaps?) and tumble weed....
I've had enough. I want to go back to regular employment, when I had somebody else to do everything for me...
I though about reviewing my Resume to include my new skills, but I don't think swearing would look good as an achievement...
Roll on day four, I'm ready for you!!!
