Ebay update, etc.

February 13th, 2015 at 02:00 am

Wow! I don't know if my emailed apology did something or what ... but the buyer closed the return - they decided to keep the movie even though it wasn't the one they thought they were getting! Now I just have to wait and see what kind of feedback (if any) they leave me.

I am so looking forward to this long weekend. It was SO nice sleeping in a little on Thursday (had a doctor's appt in the a.m.) If I could start work at 10 and be done by 5 I think that would be just about perfect ... Oh well.

NE has been talking a lot about pure maple syrup lately .. so I decided to pick up a *small* bottle for VD. Smile That stuff is expensive - $7 for 8 oz!

At work on Wednesday we had a whole big issue with the copier. I've been printing single labels and sometimes multiple labels for one of the people there - reusing the same sheets. Apparently that is a big no no in copier world according to the copy repair man who came out.

So ... we were talking about the option of a typewriter or a small printer. CT our office manager found something evn better though - a label printer! It prints labels of all sorts of shapes and sizes and can be hooked into a computer so you input the label info into a spreadsheet or word document and send it. You can do singles or multiples.

As soon as GM is back from vacation I'll be sending her my order for it, along with label rolls to go with it. Smile (she's our order person - we only order office suppplies through Office Depot.)

I'm really enjoying having a 15 minute break in the afternoon. I'm now getting nearly 25 = 30 minutes of walking time = split into 12 and 13 roughly, but still is more than I was getting during the work day. Smile

My boss and CT though are ending up having to be there while I'm on break because the others who signed up to cover the shift don't really know enough of the route info, etc. to be able to answer questions if they get a route info call (some people know the direct number, so route info calls get through even when I've logged off.)

I feel bad for them, but I'm just too happy to have the break!

We all got new computers today at work!! It was a bit of a mess because one of my two screens couldn't attach to the new computer without an adapter. Then once we got that going, the AVL (how we track the buses) wasn't loading right.

Also I lost all my bookmarks in FireFox that I constantly use, and some of them I didn't realize weren't there until people called with questions where I needed them!

I think I'm all set now though. I'm just glad we're using Windows 7 and not 8!

I asked about what they are doing with the old computers - they are going to be set up in various places around the bus depot for employees to be able to check their paycheck statuses online or do other online work related requirements. (If they didn't have a plan for them, I was going to suggest checking with local schools ... Big Grin )

    It's always pretty awesome getting new computers (once they're set up properly) Smile

    I buy organic maple syrup from Costco. If I recall it is about $1/oz.
