Please be aware of the following :
- If you do not fix the servers, our computers will freeze.
- When they are not freezing, we still cant do any work without the servers.
- When it becomes an ongoing joke in the department that things have worked for a whole 57 minutes without interruption, and that we were starting to get worried...that is not a good thing.
- When my Director suggests his 6 year old daughter should apply for the position of Head of IT, since apparently all you need to hold that position here is some knowledge of computers, which his 6 year old has, that is not a good thing.
- When this problem has persisted for the past 10 working days, you make employees cranky.
- When these employees are cranky, we will do what we are not really supposed to do and play solitaire, read blogs, blog, use the company lines for personal calls, play any game we can find online, trick you to install flash on our computer so that we can play said games, [insert further probably frowned upon actions here].
- You make time seem to come to a stand-still. ...Most people, unless exceptionally lazy, will only enjoy about an hour or so of the "i cant do any work" scenario, then we get bored, then we look at the clock every 10 minutes, and realize that yes, it really has only been 10 minutes since we checked the last time, not the 8.5 hours we estimated.
- You will make us restless, you will make us feel unheard, you will make us drink so much coffee that in the few minutes a day the server IS working, we are too riled up to focus.
Sincerely,
Bored to Tears Employee (and her entire department)
Last week I said WIWSW (Wish It Was Still Wednesday), today, without a doubt, I'm thinking TGIT! A slow work week just makes the longing for the weekend to arrive so much stronger.
