so the job was to exchange urls between our company and another company website. Seems like a very simple 1 minute task isn't it? Well in total I got 17 emails regarding this issue. Finally after 17 emails of discussion and process organization, both links are up on the websites!!!! I feel so excited LOL

The client seriously asked us to rename the 'Help' menu item, because it was too confusing to her users...

truth corporations technology bnettv
Apparently lots of technologies were invented long time ago but big corporations do not want us to know the truth.
Thanks to brave people from bnettv we know that RSS, mobile phones and lots of other stuff were known during 1969.
Here is proof:

someone shy,
Not sure if this is relevant to the office jokes, but I just got an email from my friend with the following story:
Important to understand English
I had a bunch of Canadian dollars I needed to exchange, so I went to
the currency exchange window at the local bank.
Short line.
Just one lady in front of me...an Asian lady who was trying to exchange yen for dollars and she was a little irritated . . .
She asked the teller, 'Why it change?? Yesterday, I get two hunat dolla fo yen. Today I get hunat eighty??
Why it change?'
The teller shrugged his shoulders and said, 'Fluctuations' .
The Asian lady says, 'Fluc you white people, too'.

Those of you who work in the web development area probably know, that firefox and explorer parse css in a slightly different ways.
Things were looking perfectly fine in Firefox, but in IE the layout was a little bit off. (margins of the blocks).
I asked my dev - "could you make sure the layout in IE is straight as well" She - "No, because It will damage alignment in Firefox". She never heard of IEfix. Francly I can't work with her anymore.

SG, Stupid Boss, Excellant Postman
My boss is a good 'postman'.
He is a department head of 15pax. He has no autonomy and does not dare to make decision. For every single simple thing, he will have to seek his boss (Our GM) for direction. Which sometimes make out lives at work very very difficult.
He pleases our GM in every single way. He is a 'maid' always ready to serve our boss in anyway. Even things that is obviously not our job, for example admin work, he will take it up and not challenge back. Anyway, he is not the one doing it.
Today's incident is classic. When I'm having a 'forbidden' coffee break. I saw my boss was also there. Thinking that I will be 'safe' since he's also having his break, so we seat together. However, when we go back to the office, he told be that our policy is not allowed to have coffee breaks! Isn't this funny when he is having his own coffee break too! How can I work for such boss? STUPID BOSS, EXCELLENT POSTMAN!

Some image was visible in Firefox, but didn't show in IE. Our "developer" asks me - "Is there and option in Photoshop to make the image visible in both Firefox and Explorer?" and she is actually a web developer in our company. lol
