terminal boredom
Aug. 6th, 2003 03:40 pmYou know, if I gnaw off my own hand they can't make me do this job anymore...
Now, I know you all want to know what my current task is. I know you really want to know. I can invision you there, perched on the edge of your (ergonamic or otherwise) chair, gazing at the screen in breathless anticipation, dying to know just what the task is that I have been assigned (by evil archnemisis Boss #2, none the less.)
Well, I'll tell you, shall I?
I get to go through 640 students online and sort them one by one (taking a no less than three seperate page loadings) from one folder into an entirely different folder!
That's right. Can't you just see me.
*read* *click* *read* *scroll bar* *click* *drop menu* *read* *click* *back button* *back button* *back button*
Scrub, rinse, repeat.
Six HUNDRED and fourty times. It has taken me 30 minutes to do the first 45.
I'm going to beat myself to death with the mouse now.
You know it's gone bad when I can't even concieve of making an Office Monkey post about this. Maybe tomorrow after I've had more sleep.
