November 13, 2009 - But they WERE fast

Net connections are running like crap.
So the issue was thrown in my lap.
But a server’s been there,
Yet their admins don’t care…
…Please come back when I wake from my nap…


November 12, 2009 - Good guess, but no

Changing print servers all in one swipe,
There’s one box that has caused us to gripe.
Where’s the output to go?
I’ll admit I don’t know,
That Selectric is sure not the type.


November 11, 2009 - When 99 is greater than 100

The idea had made us all frown:
“We will cut our capacity down.”
“But we need all we’ve got!
Month-end uses a lot!
If a flood was here, we would all drown!”

So we’re playing the hand we’ve been dealt.
The results all around us are felt.
Will the pointy haired bosses
Perceive all our losses
When they see our processors melt?

Bonus Rhyme for Veterans Day

In the States all our horns we should toot
For our servicemen, fierce and astute.
On this Veteran’s Day
In the U.S. of A.
I am giving a well-earned salute.


November 10, 2009 - What's your sign?

With the printers the boss took a header
Pulled by silk slowly into the shredder.
Though it seems kinda heavy,
I still can hear Chevy
Say Francisco Franco is deader.


November 9, 2009 - Third wave's the charm

Common sense everyone is defying.
“’Reply all’ is so wrong!” they’re replying.
Their effect has severity.
Now give to our charity:
Our corp’rate Exchange server’s dying.
