How Many Minutes?
It's time for How Many Minutes!
Top single employee phone usage: 6691 minutes in 30 days with 1852 text messages.
It seems that Mr. On-The-Phone-5-Days-Straight is only pulling four and a half days.
He must have been sick or something.

The blog won't let me post comments. There's nothing like a new feature to ruin things.
What's this world coming to?

A guy bursts into a doctor's office.
"Doctor, I have a terrible problem! I can never remember what I just said."
"How long have you had this problem?"
"What problem?"

Pay Day Eve 7/3
YAY! It's Pay Day Eve!
Since tomorrow is a holiday it's actually Pay Day instead of the usual Pay Day Eve!
Not that I'm complaining or anything.

How Many Minutes?
It's time for How Many Minutes!
Today's installment of How Many Minutes is different from the usual presentation of the top employee's cell phone and text message usage.
This comes from one of Grumpy Tech Support's long time lurkers who sent this link.
All I can say is "Wow."

Everyone go to your local Wal-Mart and buy a single box of Tic-tacs so it will mess with their inventory systems.

Blonde User
A blonde user calls her husband at work one day and asks him, "Can you help me when you get home?"
"Sure," he replies. "What's the problem?"
"Well, I started a really hard puzzle and I can't even find the edge pieces."
"Look on the box," he said. "There's always a picture of what the puzzle is."
"It's a big rooster," she said.
The husband arrives home and tells his blonde wife, "Okay, Honey, put the corn flakes back in the box."

The scary thing is this employee doesn't have the most text messages! 3439 text messages beats out Mr. 91-Hours!

One Finger Salute - Seagate Recovery Services
So there was a hard drive crash in the family. No big deal, even though it took some time to track down a similar sized hard drive to replace it. $40 is not that bad to spend on a brand new 80GB hard drive. During my search, I came across Seagate Recover Services. They say they can recover data from any drive and even have a No Data, No Pay guarantee.
I didn't call their toll-free phone number since I knew I'd be chatting with someone from the Far East and I really didn't want to go through that kind of pain. On the website there was an option to do an online chat session. Now we're cooking with gas! So I click on the icon and fill out the little form and within minutes I'm chatting with someone from the Far East. Rupa's accent didn't show up at all through the keyboard.
Unfortunately it was probably the shortest chat session I've ever had with someone online. Rupa asked me if it was a standalone hard drive. Yes. She asked what the drive's capacity was. 80GB. Then she asked if I could see the drive in Windows. No. Then she asked if I could see the drive in BIOS. No again. She then offered two options: A - Priority service that would recover my data in 2 to 5 business days for $2500 or B - Economy service that would recover my data in 2 to 3 weeks for only $1700.
Jiminy Tap-Dancing Christmas!
Needless to say, a couple of hundred pictures and some MP3s ripped from a few dozen CDs on a $40 hard drive wasn't worth $1700. Instead I counter offered Seagate Recovery Services a single finger.
On another note, be sure to spend that extra $20 at Dell for their Full Recovery CD. Normally they put that data on the hard drive, which does you NO good when the hard drive crashes. With the CD at least you can go back to when the PC was purchased. $20 is worth the two days it took to format the drive and install Windows XP along with all the software and drivers.
