I hate when this happens.

Here I was, trying to resolve a problem. Think I found a solution, but I didnt understood why it worked. I needed more time, needed more proof. Manager wanted a piece of it, so he went ahead modified and turned the solution into his. Guess what, it didnt work.

To add to injury, he consulted with a non geek who thinks cleaning the machine will resolve every issue, WTF!

Sometimes, pls leave the geeky stuff to the geeks, cuz not everyone can be one.


/end rant.

I got a funny story about that.

It was about four years ago. I got a call from my manager that my first call had to be at this insurance place. No explanation, just start there.

When I arrived there were parts and sub-assemblies all over the floor. It was probably a Sharp-Tiger from the accessories leaning against the wall. The customer said that the manager had showed up around 8:00 yesterday morning, and left this disaster around 3:00. The original code was L6-10 (laser).

Now I'll be the first to say that the old style engine of a Sharp AR-M350N was a lot more difficult to change a laser, but personally I think he was showboating for a pretty secretary and got in over his head. I confess that I got a good bit of enjoyment out of making it look easy. =^..^=

Serves him right for taking credit for an incomplete theory.
