Aug. 24th, 2009 05:18 pmSo I went to work, and all was relatively fine. However, I did get more confirmation that the 24th floor houses some idiotic people:
We had an office pool going for Mega Millions, and we won $9. (We won $12 honestly, and I showed Steve, but we think the guy that checked the tickets stiffed him one winner. I should have asked which guy he got the tickets from. I suspect I know.) We're starting up another pool for tomorrow. He said to tell everyone he's going to come around at 10am, so I sent the e-mail saying anyone who wasn't in the first pool who wants in can now join the second pool, we're asking for $5, have exact change if possible, and he'll come by at 10am. I sent it at 2:05pm.
Cue two phone calls, two e-mails, and one in-the-flesh visit asking if he'd come around already or stating they hadn't seen him go around.
If I send the e-mail in the afternoon and I say he's coming around in the morning...
So apparently, I have to spell everything out, because people upstairs think the IT department's gotten our hands on a TARDIS and can go back four hours to collect money for lottery tickets. Not that that wouldn't release killer flying time monkeys to eat everyone/everything or anything.
*headdesk*

... but I like Fella, okay? XD I've only bought two things from dA's store, and one of them was the Fella plushie. Because I had to. And he's adorable.
(Ignore my ugly arm. XD;;)
