Cheap ass bastards I work for expect me to churn out perfect manuals for their heap of shit machines with a 500MHz heap of shit and word 97!!
The clockwork shitheap doesn't even have enough power to manipulate an image and autosave a document at the same time.
We have a DSL connection but the cheap fucks got a 10Mbs network second hand.

I'm sorely tempted (especially now when I have to close down all applications so that the crock of shit has enough available memory to print a 40 page document) to just get the fuck out of here and find another job.

haha, my organization wanted me to tighten my belt because times are rough for the economy rightnow by not sending me my software upgrades...i make a lot of cool leaflet ands propaganda stuff about anti corporate giganticsm and stuff for the union and they want me to make this shit in publisher..PUBLISHER!!! i told them i need Photoshop 7 and Quark Xpress and they said it wasnt in the budget right now... and yet they complain when i can only produce 1st generation graphics and clip art looking leaflets LOL.... i remedied the situation though.. i went to my brothers house on his DSL and downloaded Quark and Photoshop on KazAa

sucks to be you, I guess.

Ok, so should I just find something else?

I'm not putting this in the advice section because frankly I don't know anyone on here who's opinion is even remotely valuable to me

I've already applied for one but that wasn't due to job dissatisfaction, it was because the job looked cool.
I know from experience that as soon as I apply for one job due to dissatisfaction I Will be leaving, there's no going back once I've changed my frame of mind..

So...what should I do?
Answers on a postcard to the usual address...

You guys are too bloody slow.

I've done it now

Hmm my computer is close to that level of crapitude.

Mine came with a key for winding it up in the morning

my pc kicks ass. the job just doesn't pay. so i'm going to the carribean and doing something like working on a fishing boat or something.

That sucks. My bosses have no clue how to even turn on a computer, therfore they put me in charge of the ordering and upgrading of the computer systems. Woo hoooo......

then tell them yahoo is not a chat program.

That they do know thanks to little miss doesn't-know-how-to-be-discrete. She'll go on AIM or Yahoo right in front of them and chat and then when they ask what it is, she'll say, "I have no idea, it just popped up"...... so they asked our computer guy Jack, and now we can't go on. She's a moron.

tell them you use it to help in your work or to trouble shoot problems. then show them the advertisements on who yahoo can be used in business.
