OK, now I'm going to confuse you again (and if not you, then deffinitely - myself) I mean - with the dates and entries. I wanted to publish this entry on the 1st of April, but I also wanted to tell few things about Friday's day in the office. So all the events described happenned technically yesterday, but I'm telling them today, as today is the day most appropriate for such stories...and if I haven't drive you mad yet with all unnessesary explanations, then I'll leave you to read to the end. And perhaps, you'll get your ration of laugh for the fun of the occasion...
The first of April is the day we remember what we are the other 364 days of the year. -- Mark Twain
We sent out e-mail to our users about their keyboards soon to be replaced with the special applications keyboard with a new layout. It will have few new keys: a “forward backslash” key, a key “remember password” and an “ok” key…we added “please register to place your order for replacement by replying to this e-mail with the subject line “subscribe”. And you would think in our century people would understand computer jokes…we did get few replies with “subscribe” subject line…oh well…
Message from the System: No keyboard. Press F1 to continue...
In general the day happened to be surprisingly uneventful disaster-wise. Just routine things, mostly catching up on work and everything else, that is not exactly work. Boss have found an old security camera that being decommissioned and ready to be thrown away. We managed to attach it to our monitoring display. Then we pointed it to the piece of paper with a phrase handwritten slightly at an angle across it : ”everything works”. Before our display only showed boring DOS screen with the list of servers and their status. Now we have added some novelty and style to it. Our next goal is to figure out how to make the camera to narrate across the office to the person responsible for the server every time the alert goes off. So that you can see on display whom to blame straight away.
I'm the 216,782,609 richest person on earth! Discover how rich you are! >> |
I’ve found this amusing wealth calculator. Apparently, this is looking good...There are 5,783,217,391 people poorer than me. I wonder, why did I ever complained?! Try it – you will feel much richer then you think you are!
Finally cruel joke for all the loners out there:
I get this error when I check my mail. It says, 'There are no new messages.'"
~Enjoy the April Fool Day!~
