There's something to be said for no responsibility jobs. Right now, I'm sorta wishing mine was one of those. I'm tired of getting bitched at by one of a vendors.  What the hell is that about? We're THEIR customer, and THEY are yelling at US?! And then there's the company that my boss told me to have a go at rewriting some PERL scripts for, even though we're not being paid (potential client). I don't know PERL, but it's close enough to stuff I *DO* know to kludge my way through. So, I try to apply one of the fixed they said they needed. They claim my fix broke it... Ummm... I thought that part needed fixed. So, I revert that back to original. Then they claimed that the script is running too often. So I put the entire thing back to original. Now they claim it's completely broken. WTF?! It's the original freaking script! If it's broken, it was broken before I touched it. 
Oh well... Thanks for letting me vent, Party Thread. I'm going to find the nearest pub after work and drink. Heavily.

At the last place I worked, everyone seemed to own an Initech mug. You'd have thought that was the name of the company

| I am my own boss, so I have nobody to bitch about except myself when things are all screwed up. It sucks!! There are plenty of times that I'd like to pass the buck. |

That was my xmas present to him last year.
