Rant!!

I'm thinking I should maybe create a rant section. However, here is my rant.

This morning, 0900. Scrim time. Wife is at the shop. Daughter parked in front of the TV. Shrek DVD loaded and running. Dog walked. PC booted up and running in gaming profile. Classes set.

All my ducks were in a row.

I get on to Wetwork. I get maybe 3 or 4 kills. Less that one minute of playtime. The fooking phone rings.

It's the wife. "I have a problem". She can't print labels. I log in remotely. Trying to bring up item list causes a software error.

Reboot - no go
Repair and compact Point Of Sale database - no go
Windows restore - no go
Reinstall POS - no go
Uninstall POS, phsicaly locate files and directories not removed at uninstall and then reinstall - no go
Do a complete data restoration from backup - no go
Create another Windows user profile, set up all the regional settings and printer settings on new user profile - SUCCESS!!

Well, that only took FOUR HOURS!!!

Then I took the daughter up to the park and she ran into the playground equipment, hit her head and spent the next half hour crying.

Some days you just need to stay in bed.....

Andy this sounds like my week trying to get my work laptop built up, added to the Army domain, installing 60+ Vista (Pissta) patches then finally configuring to do all my apps.
All the while dealing with a network administrator who knows far less than me but I need him b/c he has domain privileges.

Sucked but i got through it.
Sorry u missed scrim time though.
