Well, I am installing Window 10 on one of the computers. If that works OK I will start on some the other computers.

Windows are for looking outside, when you're stuck inside.

There are NO windows to look out of at our office. I can open the back door and look out.

Windows 9 is like the iPhone 2. They are only in your imagination

Evening Y'all,
I am still running Vista on both of my laptops.
Interesting thing about win10, it is just a patch over from 7. I say this because Beth was running 7 and she did the update to 10 and she lost none of her pictures r anything, so I figure it is just 7 re-skinned

No it completely replaces win 7. It make a file folder called old windows and puts all of the old windows files in there to make them easy to delete. It is different but similar. I had to go online to get the instructions on how to remove some of the bloat ware it comes with. I have as much use for the X-box app as I do for ISIS. I deleted that crap. To bad we can't do that to ISIS.

Good Morning folks.

Jeff, your picture reminded me of this.



We were going to cook em on Monday night for Labor Day but after my wife helped me wax her car on Monday she was afraid her arm would be too tired to get a bite of steak up to her mouth.

I cooked those on Tuesday. They wuz good!

When is his next retirement training? Where do we meet? Sharon has to come as well to tell us the other side of the story.

Having him come here means not visiting Australia though.

see, i had this great gig. then they hired a complete narcissist, who also happens to be stupider than a bag of hammers, and so lazy that it boggles the mind. how the manager came to that decision, i have no idea. the other supervisor in the office, over a separate team, actually said to me that he cannot understand why the manager would promote the person with the least productivity in the office.

so, now i have to deal with someone that is not only incompetent, but also pathologically narcissist. in the end, that means that she will do anything to promote herself. and it has already begun.

she has lied about spreadsheets she has "developed" (my six year old could "develop" what she sent to me in an email). she has claimed credit for coming up with processes that have been in place since before i started. she has worked two complete days in the two weeks since she has been supervisor.

i tell ya....
