I love it (work vent)

Dear Boss, You send me an email wanting to know about our 401k plan changes last year. Okay, that's nice. But when I ask you for additional information, you say you have no idea what you're looking for and to bring you everything from the end of 2008. So on Friday I leave you the file from 2008 with all of the 401k information. You leave it for me this morning and say, "That's not what I asked you to do. I need the 2008 paperwork." Again, I give you the folder with the 2008 paperwork and ask what it is you're looking for, specifically. You say you still don't know, but you don't have time to look at the 2008 file I gave you. I need to find what you're looking for asap though. Mkay. I'll get right on that. Sincerely, Not Gonna Work on the 401k Stuff Today

What's worse than trying to find a needle in a haystack?  Trying to find the one piece of hay that has the 401k information written on it.

I feel you. Someone just called and asked me for a piece of information I looked up on the computer 3 weeks ago. It wasn't something I needed to write down, email, or keep notes on in the computer. He says, "Well you gave me ABC info on JJJS, do you know what widget that was for?"Um. No. I gave you the widget information when I gave you the rest of it. If you didn't write it down that's your fault. I'm happy to look the info up again, but you know that funny looking book-type-thing in front of you, that has the glass thingy on one side that lights up? That's a computer. You can look up the info too! *gasp shock horror*
