Had 2 people in this week that put a dark cloud on decent week. Guy brought his silver vehicle in and claimed he hit a racoon. He in fact did not. All animal hits leave a calling card, hair, poop, blood, saliva, steaks, etc. Also the dents tend to be different. He did hit a parking curb on the ri…

There used to be a story every month in Popular Science called “Tales from the Model Garage”. This series of stories began sometime in the 1920s and ran until 1970. One of the customers of the Model Garage was a real cheapskate named Silas Barnstable. He was always trying to get something for not…

Everyone runs into those people where they work because, unfortunately they appear to be multiplying.

Our Help(less)desk is too stupid to figure out how to use a lighter without setting themselves or their building on fire. One of the ‘benefits’ of outsourcing…

I was shocked yesterday when I received a message from the help desk. I told them a few months ago that I needed a copy of MS Project 2010 so that I could read schedules for a program I work on with another institution. At the time, they said it was not available.
