Hideous saga continues:

Mike has now decided that the mill has had a week to heal, so we're going to try again.  Because if you REALLY REALLY want the universe to do stuff, it will happen.

:lulz:

WHAT THE FUCK.  :horrormirth:

It's like I'm taking crazy pills.  :whack:

No, actually, you don't.  Because the janitor has to clean my office bathroom. 

I'd describe what that means, but I lack the necessary knowledge of Voodoo to really explain it.

Holy crap it's like your workplace is populated with people from my workplace.  Glad my co-workers aren't around heavy machinery.

Chew on that one for a while.

TWO DAYS TIL THE HILARITY BEGINS!

Words cannot really express how much I love working in an industry where the words "catastrophic failure" are not in any sense hyperbole.

:hammer:

Don't you fuckers wish you were me?


Also, TKN seems to have the most annoying personality I've ever seen, even in a young neckbeard.  He may be genuinely insane.  I'm sending him to work for Mike for the rest of the week.

Further evaluation:  NOT insane.  Just NO SOCIAL SKILLS AT ALL.

It's fucking UNCANNY.

Those are the best kind of neckbeard!

Granted, a neckbeard gave me completely valid romantic advice the other night. Out of the blue. It was quite surprising.

Tried to rack in the office building's power this morning.

Bits of the 13,800/208 VAC transformer landed on the roof.

Going to meeting now, BRB, lol.

:omg:


Or is it that every time something blows up, it triggers an audit?
