Partly

So, my computer at work is acting weird. One of the Very Important Programs that I need kept giving me an error report. Plus it keeps freezing when I reboot... well, maybe not freezing but it sticks at the automatic diagnostics that IT put on it. After 10 minutes of waiting for it to work, I just reboot and skip that step. Works fine after that.

Well, yesterday I step into the back to get some supplies and when I come back S from IT was sitting at my computer checking it out. Keep in mind that I have NO rights on this computer. I can't install programs. I can't remove programs. I can't even remove icons from my desktop.

S tells me that he doesn't know what's wrong with Very Important Program. Because it is a program only used by the the UW-Extension, he says IT doesn't support it and I should write the UW-Extension support. Okay. I kinda guessed that would be the case. County IT doesn't support many of the programs that are only used at the UW-Extension.

Then he goes: What was the program in the corner of your screen that I had to close out of.

I panic for a moment, wondering what the hell website I was browsing and what kind of evil pop-up it left on my computer. Was I on LJ or, Lord forbid, had I started AIM in order to chat with someone... Then I look at the screen and go: You mean the Windows Media Player?

S ponders that. Probably realizing that when he shut down the program the music stopped. Oh. That was a skin, huh?

I nod. So I can pause it if I need to in a hurry. It's always on top.

( It only gets better )
