My coworker and I have joked for a while that we need to find a doctor who will write us a prescription for Valium in bulk that we can then inject into the company water system. We're just looking for a maintenance dose to take the edge off of people. After observing some of our other colleagues today, we're thinking we need to up it to a therapeutic dose and also get some in tranquilizer dart gun form so when people get really on the edge we can just shoot them in the rump with it.
So what made today so interesting? Well, here's some of the things from today:
- E-mail was down for 7 hours. Yes, almost the entire day. It didn't bother me much, it just meant people couldn't send me more work electronically. I don't think everyone else felt this way
- We have a leaking container on the railroad that we've been working for 2 days to get opened, cleaned up, and the rest of the direly needed materials to us.
- As someone in our purchasing team said, we can't get one of our primary packaging materials "to save our life"
- A customer called, apparently frantic, stating that they found what looks to me to be a hexnut in their oil. They wanted to know if this would contaminate their 6000 gallon load. Um, probably not! But we sent someone to their sight (about an hour away) to get a sample of the load and bring it back for testing.
- Several coworkers are just generally highly on edge, some literally running through the office, others one breath away from a full meltdown
If you happen to know where we can get a good deal on a railcar or tank truck of liquid Valium, please let me know.
