I dont want help, I just need to get this off my chest:
1. Im trying to make a PDF from Quark which I hate, it cant do it. Because of an error.
2. I need to write 10 CDs, but the CD burner is broken, beyond repair so I have to move files accross the painfully slow network to my IT managers laptop to burn them. There is no CD burner on order because "they are too expencive" (my boss has a £1.4Million helicopter).
3. The 5yr old Tektronix printer "which we managed to get for free because Tektronix got some sponsership with us" is broken down because it's run out of black ink. I replaced the ink and got the fucker wedged in there, unremovale. We have no service contract with any printer specialist.
4. I have 20 jobs in my inbox. I am the only designer (in-house).
5. I've got to get a job with hours of work to be done, to the printer, sharpish. And this stupid fucking mac takes so long to open all the images I need its stupid. Of course my cunt of a boss is sitting upstairs right now oblivious. Being the most unaproachable man of all time I have no interest in even attempting to explain this. He would not understand anyway. Too busy.
So you see people, if I wasnt about to jack this shit in and fuck off round the world, I think i'd be a 25yr old man in tears right now.
Come the other side of Christamas I dont this I'll give one single fuck at all. Departure date Feb27, thats all I need to focus on I guess.
Now,

simple. KILL YOUR BOSS. cd burner to expensive????? cheap asshole
- dstlb0
Set it out in simple terms for your idiot boss:
If you don't buy me these things I won't be able to do my work. What's more expensive: £150 for a new burner or £25000 a year on a designer that doesn't do any work?
Then sabotage his copter and piss off round the world for a year.
- Dita0
vinney - hopefully never ever! well we are going over to checkit out first and then we are gonna save money and then apply for a visa.

try finding a lot of things about which you need thebosses approval then interupt him all day asking about them.......
sooner or later he'll hide from you.....then order everything you need and if he complains tell him "YOU weren't here to ask and I had to.........."
one - nil the workers
- fredrik0
that sucks!
buy a cd-r & a printer for your own money and work halftime - but still get full payment :) and do some freelance or just have alot of sparetime!

i love when opportunities present themselves so that i don't have to work or work as hard. just another opportunity to take it easy. oh, and it's friday!

blindpilot said what i was thinking.
i am admittedly jealous of your upcoming adventures.
I offer this to help you with your situation... take off your pants and refuse to shower. Go sit down in your coworker's chairs and tell them your work situation. Eventually word will get to Mr. Helicopter.
