Sometimes when I’m bored and mindless I’ll type the first thing that comes to mind into my web browser, and see if it exists. Today I visited fightforyourrighttoparty.com. At first I thought it was just a stupid place holder website with random links on it. But then I read the title at the top of the browser, and saw I was in fact visiting “The Leading Legal Rights Site on the Net.” Awesome.

I call clients to check if they need AV. This guy I was just talking to seemed friendly enough, but he said we were too expensive.

Me: “Well what did you need?”
Customer: “We need a screen.”
M: “Oh, what price did they quote you?”
C: “I didn’t even find out. They just said we’d have to pay for it.”
M: “Well that’s true, it’s $35 to rent a screen.”
C: “$35! No, thanks! I’ll bring my own.”
M: “Oh well, ok…”
C: “Ha ha… $35! ...Yeah, right!...”

This really confuses me, because I don’t know where he’d get the idea that screens are free? Or where he could get them cheaper?         ????????????

This week’s lesson

This week I learned that if you want something, you should just take it. For example, if you’ve been sitting in an Office Chair for Kids™ for the duration of your employment, you should just wait until someone leaves the company, and take their chair. Or if you’re moved to a new office and you don’t have a trash can, you should just take one you find somewhere.

You’re not stealing from someone else, and you’re not stealing from the company. You are just bypassing the requisition process where you ask someone for something and it takes forever to happen.

In conclusion, if you see a person who looks rich you should mug them.

Girlfriend of friend just launched new website. I like it. Also, she’s pretty funny. Also, she told us how she took pictures for John Rueben once, and that was really funny.
