First Rant

I am not really sure what I want to focus on here, but I know it will come to me. It's been a typical day here at work, coworkers fighting out in shipping, systems going down for no apparent reason and vendors vying for my time and the companies money.

I am frustrated with Premier Global. Don't get me wrong, they are a great company and offer great services. But they are unwilling to add an addendum to a contract saying that if they go down more than 4 times for longer than 15 minutes in a 60 day period that we could have a 30 day out. Not that we probably would leave. But we have been burned before. They are great now, but 6 months from now they may not be the same company that we love. We want to use them. They refuse to bend on this. It is ridiculous.

I started my day calling RIM to fix an error after an upgrade. They helped me out and I documented it in our Sharepoint Wiki that we have just put in. I really like Sharepoint.

I called Regions Bank and got part of my financial dilemma worked out with them. They are still a useless bank. I will put my money elsewhere very soon. When one person is the only person you can speak to to get an error on their part fixed, there is a problem. They have taken money out without permission. Not cool.

Ok. So overall it wasn't a bad day, just a normal one. I did get to go to lunch (mmmm Checkers fries!) which is unusual. Again, not a bad day, just normal.
