OT, but funny

1- I'd love to see a scan of that HP brochure if possible =)
2- My sig. other has banned me from viewing my copy of Office Space on DVD 
when working for call centers. I have a bad habit of getting the urge to do 
some of the things in the movie since many of the places I've worked are 
exactly if not worse than the movie. ...Especially the damned TPS Report 
thing. Forgot to file 1 small insignificant item once that no one in the 
company looks at and has no real weight to the company financials (one of 
those "I've got to do it to show validation" documents) and got 3 
supervisors, 2 immediate managers, 3 department managers, 1 division 
manager and 7-8 coworkers bitching to me about it. Aah, the life of a 
computer geek gone to hell...
3- Damnit, where is my precious RED SWINGLINE Stapler?! You know, I like it 
better than the staplers we use right now... those Bostich ones jam up and 
they aren't as pretty and they are kind of rough on your hand when you use 
them and...
Hehehe,
