Severed

I'm at work now, and I'm bored.
I had plans this morning, stuff that needed to get done... things to see and people to do.
I've been denied my ambitions.
The S.A.P. system, the lifeblood of our production operation, is down for the count. Like all computer programs that operate in a Windows-based environment, it was doomed to occasional failure. I can accept that, and normally when it goes down I can keep busy with other tasks. But not today, today the external phone lines are down as well.
One or the other... no problem. Take them both away, and I'm playing solitaire.
I don't actually play solitaire on the computer, can't stand it... It's a boring little game for people who don't know what a computer does. Instead, I'm passing the time by dribbling out some worthless tripe on to my blog. Lucky you, you get to read it.
Okay... This post is turning kinda cranky, I'll stop now. Maybe I'll go stand around somewhere, talk to people and watch others work... experience an hour in the life of a production foreman.
