I got my ten-year service anniversary gift from work yesterday. As I think I'd mentioned earlier, they give you a small catalog full of gift choices, ranging from low-end electronics to jewelry to lunchoens out on the town. I went with the digital camera, my first ever, and although it's not a very good camera, it's absolutely free! All I need to run it are three AAA batteries (not included), a memory card (not included), and the enclosed software (not Mac compatible). Grr. Oh, well, we do have a better-than-decent Windows machine in the apartment now courtesy of
issendai, so we can do the dirty work on that and transfer the materials back to the Internet machine on a flash drive (not included).
I really shouldn't complain, though, because it was a gift, albeit one from the company who makes me take those calls every day. Which brings me to the official Work Gripe du Jour:
Dear Mr. Caller Guy,
I know you're a busy man, but could you do me the courtesy of urinating after the call is over? Thank you.
Disdainfully,
Mr. Disgruntled Operator Guy
