Makework

[jethrien]

I'm bored. I can't do any of my monthly reports until other people get me their data, and they can't because our servicing company in London is having technical difficulties. So I'm trying to make up assignments for myself to do. Right now I'm working on a list of definitions of technical terms as used by my company for the new hire handbook we're putting together.

In other news, chuckro seems to have acquired a nasty sinus infection. I'm doing my best to nurse him. He seems less miserable than the last few days, so maybe the antibiotics are kicking in.

And in the totally random, last night on the way home, I missed getting crapped on by a pigeon by about two inches.

No photocopier!? How do you LIVE??

...it's all electronic.

Seriously. We have practically no paper in the office.

We didn't have one when I was at MedAbiliti--on the very odd chance we needed multiple copies of something, we printed multiple copies. Such is often the way with small (and young) companies.

Yes, but MedAbiliti is not a good yardstick. It was inept at many things.

Darn work computer logged me out.

Well, this is true. But seriously - all of our work is done off of the company servers, everything we do is electronic, and most of our clients are international. (I don't think any of them are in New York.) We have a nearly paperless office.
