Hate to one up you, but my IT nightmare was monday - a meeting with two indian consultants who are coming in to assist us with support and asking every question imaginable pertaining to my job. I don't like the writing on the wall. Now I can't get this song out of my head:
1 little 2 little 3 little indians, 4 little 5 little six little indians, 7 little 8 little 9 little indians, coming to take my job.

Oh yeah....10 years ago I had to explain to a woman I worked with why the 5.25" floppy disk didn't work in her new 3.5" floppy drive -- EVEN THOUGH SHE FOLDED THE 5.25" DISK SO NICELY TO FIT IT IN THE SMALLER SLOT.....she was a very nice lady, though.

I'm laughing on the inside, in that sad little "wow, i'd kill myself if i had to do that" kind of laugh.

I feel for you.

Kittens will probably die in the process of this.

And by "resume plus" he means "most retarded thing he's agreed to do". :hihi:

This happened to us and now thousands of IT jobs are going overseas.
