This week was CRAZY for me. On April Fools it snowed. Such a tricky sky. It is snowing today on April 4th as well, sheesh. For April Fools I couldn’t think of anything good to do, so at work I just wrote all of night-crew’s names up on the board a few days early that we were taking 4/1 off. I don’t think he got the joke because the day before April 1 our names were off the board and there was a note that said “No taking off days and writing your name on the board unless you have talked to me first.” Haha, it sounds like my new boss doesn’t have a sense of humor. Oh well, it was worth it.
Last week my boss was supposedly sick so the boss for custodial at the health center was coming over to check on us to see how things were going. He tends to work us a lot harder than our boss Mark. If there isn’t any work to do, he makes something up for us to do. The other day we finished everything we were supposed to and more, so he told us to go dust the walls in the building. DUST THE WALLS??? Maybe if they were nice walls and were dusty I would understand. These walls have dents all over and are ugly, but have no dust on them. Turns out my boss got fired for not working us hard enough, so now we are stuck with this workaholic.
I’ve been using the trial edition of Microsoft Office because the 2010 version is coming out this year so I don’t want to waste my money on the 2007 version. Well, the day I really needed word, excel, and powerpoint for school, was the day that the 60-day trial ran out.
I uninstalled Microsoft Office and re-downloaded and installed the trial version. It still didn’t work. So I figured that the program was leaving something in my registry even after I uninstalled it. I decided that this dirty trick needed to have a dirty trick played back on it. So I went into my registry, found the information they were hiding on my computer, and tweaked the info a little bit. Then I installed the trial and I have 60 more days of free Microsoft Office.
I do plan on buying 2010 when it comes out.
