More craziness

[giza]

Well, I see that judging by the last poll, Nightcrawler won out over Gambit. Gee, Germans topping the French, not like THAT has ever happened before! :-)

In other news, here's a typical conversation from work today:

Boss: Can you add this trivial feature into the current project?
Me: I'm sorry, but we'll be over our disk quota by 30 bytes if we do that.
Boss: (without skipping a beat) No problem, I'll order a 30 byte hard drive from PC Connection.

*blinks* I think it's time to go home...

PLEASE tell me he was just joking -.-

actually Gambit is not French but American, born either in or around New Orleans (its not been revealed as to an exact location more than that) and grew up in the French Quarter and out on the bayou. Thus his accent, and nickname as the 'ragin cajun'. And yes I have read far far too many comics to know all this stuff. :-)

New meaning to cyber porn.

Did I ever tell you about the time where this (spanish speaking) customer came into my store, wanting to buy a box of computer dicks? Read that sentence carefully again. No, I did not make a typo.

Once I got over my violent fit of er... coughing, yeah that's the ticket, and showed him our selection, he proceeded to ask me if they were virgin.

Damn, my alergies were acting up that day ;)

Anyway, I was the first of my three coworkers there to have the presence of mind to realize he was asking if they were unformated.

So yeah, I can proudly say that I once sold a box of virgin computer dicks.

In the Tragically Lost Opportunity category, it only occured to me a few hours later that I really should have asked him if he'd wanted them floppy, or hard.

100 % true story.

Q.

It astounds me that people like that are employed full-time, and I'm not.

...

I mean your boss, not Gambit or Nightcrawler.
