ROFL @ froggy ! I just saw the smoking hat .....but aren't you a little to young for THAT kind of entertainment ?

(I know the last sentence is a little out of character for me, but some certain herbs aren't very good if you're still growing up... ) .


But the hat is GREAT !

No worries (copyright@Beldin), I'll second you on that ** finishes his mug of C.C.B. and cracks open a can of Duff Dark ** Cheers! Oooh yeah

....**sigh**..... Say, E-Man, could you please SHOOT ME ?

One more of those days ...and I'll do the deed myself... ...

**opens another can of beer and flops down on a chair**

Duffman says: not cool . I can feel your pain, mate... but here's a better suggestion: instead of shooting yourself, we both go on a (L)user killing spree ** calls in the Duff cheerleaders to give Beldin a massage ** Hang in there, buddy... weekend's on the way

...thank's mate , I needed that....**smiles at the cheerleaders and pats one on her backside**

It's not that the NUMBER of calls is that bad, but I had 3 really BIG problem escalations today....and guess WHO has to put in overtime to pacify everyone...even the ones who SCREWED UP.... ....


EDIT - OK, in ONE case it might have been MY mistake which triggered it, but there's no proof to that...there never is

I can definitely relate, mate - we released a new Service Pack last week and we've had reports of BUGs all week . And, of course, the Helldesk is the first line of defense to take the heat - no matter who's responsible . Just keep cool , mate - it's not worth getting all worked up about ** tosses Beldin another can of Duff Extra Cold ** What do they know ?

Well - basically only what I want them to know....since I controll my own reporting by being my own supervisor....

It just happened that someone along the line didn't pass some crucial customer information on to the on-site technician....- (I'm really not sure if it was me.... !)
- but HEY, it's not my fault that I wasn't on the guest list for to their annual christmas-bash this year... ...

But no worries, I'm off for today.....may the weekend be with you , mate !

C U on monday !

**shuts down the systems and heads for his private pocket plane in the V.I.P. section of the Rolling Thunder**

Ok, mate - enjoy the weekend ! ** SLURRs some Duff ** There's at least 3 ways you can get stress relief ** performs Duffman thrust ** Oooh yeah

EDIT - well, I'm off for the weekend too - c y'all on Monday! ** goes down to the lab and starts SLURRing away his sleeping pint **

** climbs out of his sleeping pint, walks to the bar and orders Dusty to pour him a C.C.B. ** Morning, all - I trust you all enjoyed the weekend ?

Mornin' Eery, been a fairly quiet weekend around here. How'd it go for you?

G'morning, mates !

Busy Monday around here, but I have the hope that it will calm down finally....

**pours some C.C.B. and heads for work again**

It was ok. Went shopping for my brother's birthday, got a few DVD's for myself (Spiderman and Unbreakable), found a site where I might order Region 2 DVD's , played some more BG I ** tosses Flibble a can of Duff ** Got a holiday next week . @Beldin: sorry to hear, mate - hope it calms down too, then . I trust at least the weekend was alright...

**cracks open the Duff and takes a big swig** Ooohh, yeah

Hmmm, birthdays and christmas all in one go. Real fun for gift ideas.

Thankfully work has quitened down a bit now, not so frantic anymore

@Beldin, aren't all mondays busy? It's when you find out what idiotic things users have been trying to do all weekend

We don't give Christmas presents as such, but he does get birthday presents (1st of December), Sint-Niklaas' (6th of December; sort of like Santa Claus in America) and New Year's presents (1st of January). Very expensive month for his godfather ** finishes his mug of C.C.B. and cracks open a can of Duff **

I don't doubt it! 3 in 30 days, that's gotta be hard

On the other hand, I've got all year to save for it. I always make sure I have ample funds left for December ** takes a drink from his Duff **

That helps

Time for me to call it a night though. Catch ya later chaps.

Later, Flibble - good talking to you Oooh yeah ** takes another drink from his Duff **

Looks like I'm through the worst....... ....

Mondays are worst. Closely followed by Fridays - when everyone wants his problem fixed NOW - because the world will come to an end if the damn thing doesn't work on the weekend.... !

Later @ Flibbs !

It's the same everywhere ** takes another sip from his Duff ** Glad the worst is over - so, how was the weekend, mate ?
