Welcome to Monday morning - power up the fluorescent lighting and percolating coffee pots. It’s 8:45 a.m.
In a few short minutes the elevators will begin delivering loads of tired, stressed “users.” Oh joy, they’re here to begin another week.

And that’s not an exaggeration when you’re an office computer. I’ve come to understand that best case scenario my life expectancy is five years. Tech support is here for me every other week, so I’ve realized my time is closing in.
Last week, I heard the squeaky cart that comes to take broken equipment away to our electronic graveyard. If only I could talk!
