Well, that's the sort of thing that happens when a company doesn't want to fire someone incompetent and just sticks them in another position where they become somebody else's problem!

Yeah, this morning I essentially triple-dog-dared them to fark up one more time.
Quote from Frogstar View quoted comment :
The youngling did have a good time. The first band (Peace, Love, Etc) had a guy that played keys, guitar, sax, flute (Jethro Tull song), and sang. During one song, he was playing two saxophones at the same time. We were suitably impressed.
He came back to do that sax parts for the Floyd tribute band. They were pretty decent as well, and played for a good 2.5 hours, did DSoTM (had a pretty good female vocalist for Great Gig in the Sky), an instrumental from Division Bell, some tracks from Wish You Were Here, Pigs & Sheep from Animals, and then a few tunes from The Wall.
Sounds like a helluva good show! nod
Quote from The Llama View quoted comment :
I wandered into the podium and I think I have PSTD. And I didn't even post anything. I was reading a thread about weight loss. Weight loss! And the comments about "liberals" and ideology that get thrown around - how do you have that filter in everything you look at and think about. Do people like that act like that in real life? Will anyone talk to them for more than 1 minute at a time?
I strongly suspect the worst of them have absolutely no friends or acquaintances in the real world, owing to their ridiculous behavior.
Quote from Frogstar View quoted comment :
True to my word, I haven't been back in there since my last post in that thread.
I've wondered the same things as you.
I don't bother going there. The few times those folks have spilled into The Lounge with their arrogant rhetoric I've mod alerted the threads to get it stopped.


FYI: I got back into Charlotte by 11:30, so I headed to Brooks Sandwich House to grab a hot dog and fries for an early lunch. I'm finally back home and about to go outside and finish picking up all the debris I cut up with the chainsaw yesterday.

At eight bucks a ticket, 3.5 hours of performance is pretty good!

The thing that amused me most was the number of people taking pictures and recording videos... I mean, okay, if it were the actual Pink Floyd, that would make sense. Or maybe even one of the international touring Floyd tribute bands.

I wish I could. I picked these people because they're regional and had the feature I wanted. I made it abundantly clear this morning that they've farked me over twice already. If they waste any more of my time for ANY reason whatsoever, they are to call me instead of sitting there with their thumb up their butt. Annoyed Just tanked up the car. Heading back home for lunch. wave
My ex husband was kind of an asshole. His tag line for disagreements was 'I will shove this _ up your butt'. The _ depended upon whatever was in reaching distance and the butt belonged to whoever pissed him off Roll

What's terribly sad is, I'm beyond being pissed off. I walked in their door this morning with my radio and the young lady answering the phone knew exactly who I was and why I was there. I made it a point to be calm and factual, rather than come across as irate or pissed off. The young lady got to enjoy my polite rant to the shop manager, who (to his credit) didn't attempt to make any excuses. They damn sure better bench-test their work, because that's the first thing I'm going to do before attempting to install it into the car.

Help please!!!

I need to distribute different reports to numerous recipient. I DO NOT want to manually draft each email. There HAS to be a way that I can merge the attachments. I've googled the shit out of it and it looks like VBA or a pay-for (farkers) add on will get me what I need. I know *this much* VBA...as in, if I get my hands on it I can run the script.

Crying I refuse to do this work manually!

I know someone in this group of smarty pants is bound to have the answer.

Well done Bowdown
'tis a maddening feeling to install a thing and then find out you get to do it all over again.

I've always pawned VBA work off on other people, if that's your only avenue the Tech Support forum here has a good chance of working for you.
For that sort of thing I'd probably just whip up a VB.Net EXE.

What version of MS-Office are you running? If it can wait until tomorrow I may be able to whip something up for you.
