Busted

12:24 PM

*sigh*

I'm wicked jonesing for anything to listen to.

I keep reaching to put my headphones on and there aren't any. So I've decided to hit Best Buy at lunch and pick up a cheap pair of earbuds. I was going to download a couple of podcasts, but I just got off the phone with a guy in MIS telling me basically to knock it off (it was much nicer worded than that. In fact, Lou made it sound like he didn't know what was going on, just a lot of traffic and was everything okay?). I got the hint and quite what I was doing.

So I've got one episode of Keith and The Girl and that's it. L

My next plan is to buy some soundtrack music on CD or something to get me through the rest of the day. I can't believe how much this blows.

1:53 PM


Right before lunch we get *the* email. The one that anonymously lets you know you've fucked up and gotten busted.

Hi everyone,

Just a reminder that unauthorized use of the [work] Internet connection is prohibited.

Personal use of the Internet such as listening to Internet radio, instant messaging, streaming video, large personal e-mail attachments and downloading severely impacts the speed of our network. This affects access to our business systems as well as the Internet and ultimately affects everyone's productivity.

Thank you for your compliance and for using our resources wisely.

Sigh. I'm not really sure, but getting talked to (even though it was nice) and then the official reminder always makes me feel dirty. I feel like a little kid again, getting caught doing something wrong. 

I just want to hide under a rock and this day just won't end.

I went to Best Buy, picked up some cheapie headphones (~$8.00) and the soundtrack from The Matrix. I almost bought the Master and Commander soundtrack, but having never seen the movie, I didn't want it to suck. I made it back here with about 20 mins for lunch left. 

To think, if I had just remembered my iPod, none of this would have happened.

2:10 PM

The owner of the company just walked by me while I was getting coffee and said, "Hi Jason." I've been here 5 years and they still have no idea who I am. WFT?

This day suck-dilly-ucks. 

I'm so gonna need a drink when I get home.
