Welcome to Ticket World

Ticket World is a mystical realm where systems type people live. They make their living by fulfilling tickets. They fulfill their tickets in the order in which they are received, blissfully unaware of why they are being asked to do what they are doing.

Sometimes, what a person is asking for cannot be fulfilled in a ticket. This is a BIG DEAL, requiring management interference and meetings that cannot possibly take place this week because they are too busy.

I'm sorry - if I performed my job as if I lived in Ticket World, I'd probably be fired. Sorry to all the systems type of people who don't act as if they live in this bubble.

It's all about the money

I thought this was an interesting article...

It seems that the way government and finances work is something that we should all understand, though few of us bother to. I am quite guilty of this.

The Day We All Got Screwed...

I'm not kidding... Someone came around today and screwed everyone's nameplate to their cubicle...

I am one of the luckiest people alive...

I just can't believe the goodness that is coming in my direction. It will be challenging as hell, but it will be great. I will soon be changing job titles to business analyst, I am buying a house and I am getting married. I am very very thankful.

Whoosh!

Between work and the wedding and the house, things are moving very quickly! I hope we can keep up!

Sorted through wedding addresses today and got an almost finished list together. (Groan)

Went to a Trenton Thunder game last night. That was fun.

I think I need to either go do something productive with the rest of my day or get out of the house.
