Don't forget to drop your wish in the comment box for the chance to win a collage. I like being the keeper of wishes. It feels, to me, to be a very worthy cause.
There are no words to express how I would feel if I was to face something that complex first thing in the morning....
ReplyDeletePrevious 24 passwords (are they serious)
oh my god...that's hilarious I would have sat gobsmacked for a good part of the morning, repeating....are they for real!
ReplyDeleteEeek!!!
ReplyDeleteOur work puters say to us "Your password will expire in 14 days, do you want to change it now?" and then keep asking every day. grr. And I just went to change my address at VicRoads site and the computer told me I didn't exist. ARGH.
Techo-bureaucracy be damned!
OMG! this sounds like something that would happen at my office ;)
ReplyDeleteBTW: i forgot to mention the beauty of the collage you are giving away - i love all that green for GROWTH and the little bird "taking flight" =-)
thanks for offering to hold so many dreams - it is indeed a worthy cause!
