Sadly, that's not true. I'm just bored.
Spent the morning running around the place explaining to people how to turn on terminals and computers due to a power failure this night. Had to deal with a lot of stupid problems resulting to the fact that i have fun chains of equipment that all require one to be started before the other, and obviously all restarted in the wrong order.
I need to put more warning involving "Please check connection to coffee machine.". That way i'd have an excuse to go get coffee. I'm sure that's the biggest advantage of networked coffee vending machines.
Oh, and i think they need to make one where you have the option of getting your change the usual way, or having pennies shoot out of the machine. I'd be more interested in the entertainment this would provide than having my 5c back. Especially if it could shoot out of the top like a penny fountain.
... also, people need to know when to stop apologizing. Not just those who apologize, then are sorry about overdoing it and apologize for that and bleh... If i talk to people, it's usually either 'cause i need to, or because i want to. In both cases, apologizing is rather counter-productive, since it blocks any real conversation that could happen.
And my "work" laptop is trying to explode once again. Fun.
