That Friday Feeling

Friday 12:43 am
Meet Breandon. Breandon has a problem. The server is down and it may be his job to fix it. People are calling him. They are cranky and being mean. He doesn't know why the machines aren't working for him. Poor, poor Breandon.

Pog's advice to Breandon is "screw them - [they] outsourced second line support to India. [They] are the ones who have the problem, not you!"
But Breandon is more responsible than Pog and besides, it is past 5:00 pm in Bombay. He can't get anyone on the phone. And people are calling ... they...just...keep...calling.

Pog suggests that Breandon apply for another job.





Friday 2:53 pm
Dublin calling! Anyone out there? Breandon has done everything he can from the continent of Europe but alas the problem is nothing he can fix. The whole OS is banjaxed. You got to put in a ticket and what are the chances of it getting picked up before Monday. Zero. Nil. Nulla. Niente. Nada. Zippo.

Breandon's phone is still ringing off the hook. It is on somebody's "good people to drive to murder/suicide" list. Pog reminds Breandon that he is lucky he doesn't wear a beeper. Patrick keeps annoying Breandon by continuing to snap these pictures documenting Breandon's Bad Day for their own future amusement

Friday 5:05 pm

Look! Breandon is happy again! Is the problem fixed??? No! It is after 5 0' Clock and Breandon just does not give a rat's arse anymore. Yahoo!

Friday: After 5:15 pm
Life is so good. They are giving out free burgers and everything. We took a vote and decided that Breandon should buy a couple of rounds of drinks, seeing as it was his escape from the office we were celebrating.


Happy Monday everyone! Remember, we only have 5 more days and loads of possibilities!

Poor Breandon. His job sucks! I'm glad I don't have other people relying on me in my line of work; only children. BWAHAHAHA!
