Yesterday we had an hour long training session on how to use our new phones at work. This alerted me to all manner of things that inconvenience me that I never even knew were inconveniencing me. Case in point: looking up a number on the interweb and then having to physically dial it into the phone. The trainer (nay, truthsayer) said: 'I don't know about you, but it takes me two or three tries to get the number right'. Right you are Sir! Suffice to say this is a thing of the past!
Other highlights included:
'Sure it took a little getting used to to constantly update my phone status. But now, when I go a fill up my water or go to the bathroom I just change it to "Out office, forward to mobile". It's second nature now'.
and
'And if you come into work and your phone is not working, but everyone else's is, you are the victim of a cruel practical joke. AND NO, THAT'S NOT A FUNNY JOKE'.
We also heard about the time the trainer juggled FIVE phone calls at once. This was a true story, but not something to be tried willy nilly.
Anyway, after that it was the long weekend. Which was ace because it was a slow day. In fact, the content of this post may alert you to the fact it has been a slow week.
