Work was its usual seven and a half hours of dull throbbing ache today, alleviated momentarily by a caller who was going on at length about how her landlord stole her modium. That would be a computer modium, via which one would get onto the Internets. She had no computer. But she had Verizon for her Internets. For which they sent her a modium. Which the landlord stole. Sucks to be her, I guess.

Me? I was in One of Those Moods today:

Me: Can I help you?
Random Caller: Are you a man?
Me: Last time I checked.

I dunno. Yesterday was marginally more fun in the caller department, because I got a woman on the line who was (mercifully sane and) retired from our company's repair line, so we swapped a few war stories. She officially won the one-up-man's contest when she mentioned a caller who complained that her cord was too long, and wanted the employee to give it a good tug from her end. A good reminder that I have it easy.

Thank you for reminding me of why I ran headlong from technical support...
