Called the lady back about the job.

It was a helpdesk jpb for the Baltimore City School District.

They wanted someone who could troubleshoot windows and PC's right off the cuff.

And she was basically offering me the job outright.

Now that's all well and good, but as we all know...I don't know how to troubleshoot windows or PC hardware. Reboot, format:C, trash the thing and get a Mac, okay?

Nowhere on my resume does any statement appear that should give anyone the slightest impression that I know how to troubleshoot Windows and PC hardware.

I'm just too stressed out right now to deal with this mess. I want Keith's head. On a platter. No, I want Keith here, alive and intact so I can torture him. Paper cuts, lemon juice, bamboo under the fingernails, Chinese water torture, people cracking gum in his ear, noise-cancelling headphones playing an alternating mix of Barney, Polka and Engleburt Humperdink...you get the idea.

That's it, I'm changing my name.

Oh, and as for supporting windows, rebooting solves 75% of problems, and reinstalling the troublesome software does a good job on many of those that remain. For the rest, there's google.
