10/14/2002 Archived Entry: "Cryptic notes"

I arrived at my desk about twenty minutes ago and, after unlocking my workstation, was greeted by an instance of Notepad with the following line of text highlighted: "Talk to $LUSER about Acrobat licenses." Now, I remember writing that note on Friday right before I left, but I have no bloody clue why I needed to talk to this guy. Obviously about licenses for Adobe Acrobat, but WHAT about them? Does he need more of them? Does he have extra? Does he need upgrade licenses from 4.05 to 5?

Then, one of the Win2k upgrade team guys--a group of which I'm nominally in charge, in kind of a responsibility-without-actual-authority kind of way--comes by and tells me that the list of users to upgrade I sent out on Friday ought to keep them busy for at least the rest of today.

List? What list? I sent out a list?

Monday. Ugh. I can't remember a damn thing about work last week.
