I try to keep politics out of the workplace.  In my book political harassment is akin to sexual harassment.

no, no, no...i meant, that i'm considering emailing him and asking him to remove my comment, not his blog post.  i meant that i was worried that my snarky comment was a bit much for the workplace.

Oh, God no, let it stay. If he bitches enough, sure, but not before. Watch, though, he'll pull the persecution card on you. Now post two more times to you'll be nice and evil.  :evil:

We're pretty much a Windows based network where I work. We have a few bastard Apple notebook machines out there that we don't really support but keep around because they're pretty and higher ups like to carry them around to make themselves look more sophisticated. I got this gem in my support queue a few minutes ago:

Customer "I’m running Mac OS emulating Windows XP and using Entourage to connect to a remote Windows terminal server to connect to my custom application with it's own special login ID and password WHY IS MY ACCOUNT GETTING LOCKED OUT ALL THE TIME?"

Then I've got just the gift for you! A Nintendo DS!

Think about it:

  • It's less than ten years old
  • It lets you touch it
  • It won't run away from you

Perfect!

My kind of luck would have me crouching, bugs in hand, reaching for the mailslot when the door opened.

There is only one correct thing to do in a situation like that.

I wouldn't even get that lucky, I'de just have cops show up at my front door two weeks later and arrest me, no questions asked.
