We can't all be IT dweebs. :huh:

36486[/snapback]

 

And some of us have to be 'IT dweebs' supporting the financial applications for the accountants....

 

They've got to be the biggest bunch of arrogant bastards I've ever come across (speaking from experience :D)..

 

Not an ounce of common sense, if it doesn't involve money, they don't want to know! :wacko:

I've got news for you - anything IT-related is about as far removed from common sense as it gets. ;)

 

I bet you've got a comedy ringtone like the IT dweebs here though. :huh:

"Ring-ring"

 

The last 'comedy ringtone' heard in our office resulted in the phone being thrown out of the window! The bastard had it on full volume as well! :wacko:

 

As for common sense:

 

Accountant: "Fix this now!!"

Me: "Fine, 3 days work at £256 a day."

Accountant: "I'm not paying for it, it'll affect my pretty balance sheet..."

 

Usual type of conversation which happens in this place...

Correction, if it doesn't involve securing money in a secure long-term low-yield investment they're not interested. Gambling makes you cry, doesn't it Gemill.
