Kuiper Posted December 19, 2018 Today I sat down at my desk and up and opened my task list for the day and was struck by the mixture of discomfort and terror of "oh no, I can't believe I had to sort through all these support tickets, what did I break this time." Then I looked at the tickets and saw they were from addresses like "test1@example.com" and "test2@example.com" from when I had previously submitted a bunch of fake support requests to test the ticketing system. I had never bothered to delete or close these old tickets, and my chickens had finally come home to roost. Today, I was most definitely hoist by my own petard.

Roderick Posted December 19, 2018 How did we do all this time without this topic? My own hoisting is a little less comical, perhaps. This past year I've been telling so many friends that I'd come visit them 'soon', but the year is almost over and I've made a complete liar of myself. I need to seriously come to terms with my own inability to travel long distances at a whim to visit friends. I should make it clear to them I'm like a shiny Pokémon: a rare catch and reason for celebration. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dosed Posted December 22, 2018 Mine's kind of mundane but my last day at work was supposed to be today. However, I managed to get the flu and then an ear infection for a few days meaning I have to work some extra days and finish on Monday instead. Damn immune system! You're supposed to be on my side here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
