So here it is September 3rd - I applied to be an SG model on July 17th and I am still getting the message:
We received your questionnaire. We'll look it over and get back to you ASAP!

This is very disheartening. I have every intention of sticking it out just for the chance to prove myself but I am also bummed. A gal who...

Snakes on a Plane!!

Woo-hoo. Snakes on a Plane comes out Friday.

I plan on going home - walking my dog - clean the litterbox and running out the door to catch the 7pm showing this Friday.

I am so pumped for this movie. I have no idea why - I just am. I think that Attack of the Show has brainwashed me.

It's just going to be a lot of fun. It was a lot of fun for the Actors and true facts:

- This film's title originated at an after-work happy hour among Hollywood colleagues to see who could come up with the most awful pitch for a movie. Producer David Berenson, who worked for DreamWorks at the time, gave his pitch for this movie based on a script called "Venom."

- Samuel L. Jackson only signed on for this film because of the title. It was later changed to "Pacific Air Flight 121", but Jackson demanded they reverse the change. "We're totally changing that back. That's the only reason I took the job: I read the title."

- On June 3, 2006, Samuel L. Jackson said, while presenting the award for best movie at the MTV Movie Awards, "I'm here tonight to present the award everyone's been waiting for: best movie. Now, this award holds a special place in my heart because next year I'll be winning it for Snakes on a Plane. Now I know, I know that sounds cocky, but I don't give a damn. I am guaranteeing that Snakes on a Plane will win best movie next year. Does not matter what else is coming out. The New James Bond... no snakes in that! Ocean's 13... where my snakes at? Shrek the Third... green, but not a snake. No movie shall triumph over Snakes on a Plane. Unless I happen to feel like making a movie called Mo' Motha-fuckin' Snakes on Mo' Motha-fuckin' Planes."

SO it's been officially 2 weeks now since I submitted pictures to become an SG.
I am still stuck at the: "We received your questionnaire. We'll look it over and get back to you ASAP!" step or phase.

I assumed it would be 2-3 days.. but sadly it's been 2 weeks...
I'm bummed.

I emailed Stephanie to make sure I wasn't a "lost in transit"...

What IT Pros Hate About Users
July 25th, 2006 @ 5:40:18pm EDT | Category: General | 11,616

Users are an interesting bunch. While most are very nice and understand that everything in the world isn't perfect, many demand miracles. Why six somewhat universal IT gripes? Why not?

1. Users Lie - Many times I chalk up user misinformation to a lack of technical knowledge, but...

You forgot to mention that most Users think the water cooler/vending machine exists only as a honey trap to lure their IT Pro away from the safety of the IT department.
