Klutch.xls: please, klutch, don't hertem!
This is why I often cry myself to sleep at night. I will set the stage, give you the details, and hope that you, gentle reader, can understand my frustration. Here goes:
1. Organization I work for is planning an event.
2. Everyone in the free world knows that the box of extra invitations is sitting on a desk in my office. No joke. OMG!!!!11!! EVERYONE KNWS THIS!!!11!!1!
So . . . employee A goes to employee B and says "So-n-so" never got an invitation! Get them an invitation FOR TEH LOVE OF TEH PASSION OF TEH CHRIST!!!!1!!!1!!
employee B calls employee.xls to say "WHY NO INVITE FOR SO-N-SO???!?!?!???! OMG!!! PLEASE HAVE employee C SEND IT!!!"
employee.xls looks in the database and discovers that there is no address for So-n-so. employee.xls considers this a valid reason for So-n-so to not receive an invitation, considering employee.xls's SQL query very clearly does not include peeps WITH NO GODDAMNED ADDRESS!@!!!1!!!! xls informs employee B of this newly discovered detail.
employee B tells employee.xls to get the address from employee A give it to employee C and ask them to put it in the FARKING MAIL!!!!1!?!!!!112@!
o.k. if you have been keeping count with me, the mailing of a simple invitation took about one (1) hours worth of work from four (4) different people.
Oh yeah, and this is about as mentally stimulating as my job ever gets.
