Back To Work

by beehive on Jul.31, 2007, under Uncategorized

So yesterday I came back to work all prepared to pretend to work for the first two hours of the day while I was to begin writing nearly real time posts again, and found out that my employer decided to “fix” a “glitch” in the world of IT that had allowed me to log into the domain that I actually need to work on while still being wrongly assigned to a different domain. 

Unfortunately in doing so the company didn’t assign me to the proper domain, and I wasn’t able to log in to my desktop at all yesterday.  This left me fully bored as I had to conserve my Treo battery in order to waste the entire day on the different Treo programs for the full eight hours of work.  There was a good 15 minutes that I powered it down - for shame.

I also had this conversation with seven, I kid you not seven techs from all over the world yesterday:

Beehive:  I can’t log into my desktop.

Tech:  Hmm… that’s odd.  You’re not locked out.  Try the caps lock.

Beehive:  Already been done.

Tech:  Try shutting down and starting up.

Beehive:  Did that too, but I’ll give it another whirl.  Still not working.

Tech:  Okay, here’s you’re new password reset.

Beehive:  It still doesn’t work.

Tech:  Try logging into “XYZ” domain.

Beehive:  I don’t have the option to do that on this desktop.

Tech:  You have to.  That’s what you’re assigned.

Beehive:  I seriously don’t have that.

Tech:  Oh,ummm…I think i know what the problem here is.  I will need to get my supervisor approval in order to fix this for you.  So I’ll have to get back to you on this.

Then, I think that there was a series of murders and or suicides that happened in my companies IT department, since I never heard back from any of them, which forced me to not only have to keep calling the IT groups back every half an hour to check their status, but it also made me struggle to keep a Friendly’s Honey BBQ Chicken SuperMelt deuce from escaping my body while I anticipated phone calls that I never ended up receiving.

This truly made me earn my money yesterday moreso than any other day that I can remember for a very long time.
