ree ba la


Siemens: yeah we use your tool for viewing HL7 messages
Me: what? what tool
S: Yours, for viewing HL7 messages
M: I have no idea what you're talking about
S: It is a program and it lets you look at HL7 messages, it's really good
M: Notepad?

Bryan: Oh man I think some people just call to screw with me.
Customer: "(British accent) Oh hellloooo, sir. I would like Helix to send all the parameters, regardless of if they were sent by the analyzer
Me: Ok, which parameters should I send?
C: All of them
Me: Yes, but what are they, like, the whole list you're expecting.
C: Well just if they aren't there, send them anyway
Me: So if I don;'t see something, I should send it?
C: Yeah!
Me: How will I know it isn't there if I don't see it?
C: It won't be there, and if it isn't there you should send it.

take a walk on the wild side


Bryan: I had this idea at lunch where I would get one of those whole car stickers, "wraps" I think they call them so my car looks like it is from the local cable company and I go around fixing widows' cable
But I didn't think they'd make me one with a trademarked company name so instead of BrightHouse Networks, I'd have to get like BightHouse
and the other side would say Verison, just in case they don't have BightHouse Cable
me: LOL
why do you want to go into peoples' windows? i've missed something
Bryan: widows' not windows. Did I say windows?
No I didn't. WIDOWS

Mike: At some point you just have to accept that he's not going to, and let it go
me: SO HARD
Mike: Not really, send more schoolgirl pics

pound it down

coworker: but i'm not driving back
me: i drove back last year and got a $300 ticket so i refuse
coworker: yeah but i'll be drunk. i'm going to continue drinking until 4am!
me: but aren't you old? how do you do it? i'm 25 and i can't do it!
coworker: yeah but i have nothing else to look forward to in my life

me: when did i start working here?
Bryan: 1929. I remember because my sticks went down
Bryan: stocks too
Bryan: I wore an onion on my belt
know why?
Bryan: because it was the style at the time
Bryan: not a white onion, a red one, on account of the white ones all being used in the wat
war
Bryan: back then a red onion'd cost ya 3 for a nickel, "give me 3 onions for a hogger" because the nickel had a pig on it which was used to help settle the west.
But it wans't made from nickel at all, a hogger was actually made from steel because of the war you see
Bryan: oh but the onions and my old pal Stanley McGee went down to the general store to get some change to use in the sody pop machine when we came across a travelling salesman offering us 4 red onions for half a hogger
Bryan: Joey Jo Jo Jr Shabadoo was his name, I remember that because my mother's name was Joey through an interesting turn of events that transpired around the turn of the century
