Oh, please, call back!

Us folk on the phones get recognition for doing our jobs right despite all the stupid "imperatives" pushed on us by supervisors who never took a call in their ever-lovin' lives!

Remember, in Robocop 2, how the committee got together to decide how the rebuilt Robocop should behave, and everybody put their stupid, contradictory 2cents' worth into the mix, and created the Robocop from heck? Well, our jobs are like that. Do your guy a favor ... call back, ask to speak to a supervisor, and tell 'em how nice your guy was. Then ask the supervisor for said supevisor's email or snail-mail address, write what you told the supervisor, and email it to 'em.

I remember sending those. I will try to think to ask him about them as soon as I hear from them. Right now I think they still don't have access to me.

Oh... dear... you have NO IDEA (well... maybe you do...) how much I identify with this.

That's why I have decided to become: http://www.arrogantbastard.com/

I wouldn't recommend it for everyone, but it works for me. :-)

Portables are easy, Jen!

Just remember, when troubleshooting one: take everything off that you can, including memory, and then see if it notices there's no memory. If it doesn't notice, the problem is the motherboard. If it does notice the lack of memory, add everything back, one piece at a time, and attempt to boot in between.

The secret to troubleshooting is simplification.

First, remove the user from the equation. This is harder than it may first appear.

okay... I'm goin' out on a limb here...

DON'T BUY RADIOS TO SEND TO A COMBAT ZONE... ESPECIALLY RADIOS THAT OPERATE IN AN UNSECURE MODE... I THINK IT'S A BAD IDEA...ESPECIALLY IN AN URBAN "POLICE" ROLE...

that said, if you insist, I will lend you my advise... Midlands are fine... gotta watch the batteries and chargers... if I ain't mistaken, the Midlands operate on AA batteries... I don't know if y'all want to invest in NIH batteries and chargers... we could go broke tryin' tuh keep the platoon in batteries...
