Had another install today, this one was kina forced uppon me. Nobdoy else wanted it, now I realize why.

He was a very nice gentleman, but he had an HP. Yah, nuff said there. A bloody HSF software based modem. Yuck! The kind that requires several drives to work. The modem driver, and some other thing. Terrible. Sometimes they work, but not this time.

This was not one of those times. I fought hand and tooth till my fingers bled! After an hour of battle I accepted defeat. That WinModem beat me. Danmit, hard to win aganst something that's so dumb it doesn't even know it's alive. I miss real modems!

What ever happend to real modems anyway? About the only company that ships them in systems is apple. Makes me sick, sure they save a couple bucks by not having to put in that 'extra' hardware...but it's not nearly as good. Downright nasty.

I'll never blame those who make PeeCees for giving the customer the best hardware avaliable. For them it's all about saving a few bucks. Even at the cost of quality. Heh, but that's what it's all about. Getting something that's good enough. Even if just barely, that's all they care.

Sounds like a bad movie...

Now onto other things. I was supposto have today off, but since some people alled in sick...that didn't happen. I get woke up before noon, and asked if I can come in. Sure, I have no social life. No biggie. This is one of those times I should have said no. We had shit broken seven ways from sunday. Yah, hella time on the phone. Lots of pissed clients. Fuckide fuck fuck.

It happens, oh well.

Tommorow will be diffrent. I've traded with one of the guys there, tommorow for sunday. Granted it means I get no weekend, oh well. Today was just one of those days I really didn't enjoy dealing with.

Oh yes. Then thier was fighting with the phone company. Yep, things broke on thier end, and oh was I pissed. I talked to 'bob' (wonder if he has bitch tits?). He wasn't terribly helpfull, but the problem did seem to be solved several hours later. Yeash!

As things would have it when I get to the diner for lunch I'm treated to a not so fun sight. What would appear to be a heard of stoners. Those people drive me nuts, walking around with dumb looks on thier faces all the time. No real thought, as if thier brains had been melted. Hmm, that's probably not far from the truth...
