OT:Friday Frustration

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

One of the crazy people who work here called me this morning freaking out
that her Outlook is opening all by itself. She would have it closed and it
would pop open as if by magic. She wanted this fixed NOW because it was
driving her crazy. I go to her office an hour later (made her wait just to
show her I could) and after a quick look-sie I found that she wasn't pulling
her keyboard tray all the way out and her mail hot key was hitting on an
edge under her desk. I replaced her keyboard with one with no hot keys and
went about my day. She just called and ripped me for taking her "good
keyboard" and leaving her with a "crappy one". I told her until she learned
how to use one with hot keys I could not trust her with one. My PHB should
be callin' any minute now. Have a good weekend everybody, I'm sneaking out
early.
