....But just for today...

 

Today has been a day of malfunctions and interruptions, and this....is the last straw...  I’ve had doors taunt me and drawers mock me, I’ve had the copy machine cackle maniacally at me, and now I’ve been assaulted by a folder.

 

Door to the file room didn’t want to open.  It does this sometimes, and it /had/ to choose today.  I swipe by security card, the light turns green, I can hear the locks release...but the locks didn’t actually release.....so you’re left standing there tugging at a door handle that won’t turn and looking like the moron that’s trying to “pull” the “push” door.  Luckily anyone that uses the door knows it does this from time to time and are gracious enough to drop what they’re doing within the file room to come let the less fortunate through the door (since it opens /just/ /fine/ from the /other/ side).

 

My file drawers were having the same kind of malfunction today.  They’re the kind where if one is open the other won’t open.  So I need into the bottom drawer....but it just will NOT open.  I fight with it only to be mercilessly pwned by the metal drawers of doom.  I’m down on the floor, tugging and pulling, pushing and kicking.....finally did manage to get it open (if I opened the top drawer and pushed it closed at the same time that I was trying to pull the bottom open it’d finally open...just that easy and effortless....the prick.... *yes she just called a set of draws a prick....what?*) only to realize that the materials I was looking for....weren’t in the frarking drawers at all, but up on an open shelf.......Office Stuffs 2....Me 0.....

 

And our copy machine....just....don’t get me started on the copy machine.  It’s made of hobby out of jamming and has perfected the technique.  I think it enjoys making us poor saps try to figure out to pry a crumpled and shredded piece of paper out of nearly inaccessible nooks and crannies of its mechanical build...

 

And now...I’ve a paper cut and splinter along the bend of my left little finger.  You read that right....I’ve got a PAPER SPLINTER!!  FTW!?!?!  I’ve a piece of a manila envelope in a paper cut in my finger...HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE!??!?!?!?  *huffs....*

 

So....as I said.....I quit......for today anyway.....
