Think I've already gotten my money's worth from this storm. :)

As I was taking Joshua to school, Matthew looked out the car window and sighed at our dusting of snow..."What I want is some arctic devastation", is what he said.

OK, now I'm feelin' kinda cranky.

Just went to go fix the printer in Student Activities...these are the folks that deal with concerts and such. I spent quite a bit of time there, but finally got the durned thing working. While I was there, someone came in for tickets to a concert on Friday, and I was reminded that I'd like to go to that one. Soo...I asked the work study there if I could get a ticket, though my ID was in my office. She said no. Now...I'm thinkin', fine, they probably need a number off of it or something...and I had to go and ask if that was the case.

Answer was no - they just have to confirm that you're you and work for the college. I pointed out I wouldn't be there fixin' the printer if I wasn't, but she said no way.

Why can't people use common sense? I mean...I want to go to that concert, probably, but not enough to spy on IT so I know the student activities printer is broken, learn printers, learn the admin password, go over and pose as someone from IT. I gots better things to do.

Granted, this is probably the kids first job. But you'd think logic would prevail.

Whine over. I'll just go over with ID later...still kinda bugs me, though.
