What a waste today was.

It wasn't bad enough that it was Monday. But it was a Monday when alot of my online friends were enjoying a holiday while I drove to work in bitter, unseasonable cold weather.

I wasn't in my office 10 minutes (a full 20 minutes before I officially start work) when the first problem of the day landed in my lap; our clinical server went down.

And I literally spent the entire rest of the day sitting by the phone awaiting IT's response to not one, two or even THREE of my requests for a backup restore. It took four calls, the last one to the Supervisor of the jerks who obviously couldn't be bothered to put in any effort today.

I hate being that person; but why oh why does it take "tattling" to the boss to get anywhere???

But it worked. With just 40 minutes left in my day, I finally got results.

I hope Tuesday is better. Gad, I hope so. At least I'll hope to get a bathroom break.
