OT the Geeks won

I start my new job tomorrow, for better or worse. It's doing dispatch
for the Geek Squad; many of you have seen the ads: the Brylcreemed
Geek in black flood pants, black tie and white shirt with a freaking
pocket protector driving around in a black-and-white Punchbuggy to do
emergency service calls. Meet your Geek, ladies and gents. Picture big
bad Lizzy in that uniform, and I'm not kidding. Right down to the
flood pants, and I'm not even a technician. The dress code is so
strict that the handbook warns of writeups if the pants touch the
shoes.

I don't want to do this, but in this job climate it's about the best I
can do. I face rude and belligerent customers whose assigned geek
didn't make it. I'm back onto a phone, welded to a handset. I have
been trying to get off a phone for years. Oh well. it pays the vet and
right now that's all I care about.

Wish me luck. And access to lots of valium and alcohol, potentially
together.

Blessed be,
Baha

But: What are flood plants? I'm picturing some sort of wide-bottom or
bell-bottom pants, but I have never heard the term. Sounds rather strange,
though.

Pants that are too short for your legs. This means you could walk through
flood water without getting your pants wet.

Good luck, Baha. It's a job. Try to be positive, maybe it'll turn out
to be better
than you think. I hope so.

In this climate, *any* job is a good job. Hope you can findsome small joy in
it.

I hope they recognise your brilliance early, and give you another position
where you can truly shine. In the mean time, just remember the furry little
faces you are doing this for :-)
