Computer is in Sandy Eggo.
Power cord is in Little Rhody.
Blogging is going to be slim until Monday.
Boss is flying in Sunday night with my power cord.
Guess who gave him crap for forgetting his back in July?
Yup.
Me.
Karma is a female canine.
Sigh ...
Wow, glad I've never done that before! (Wink, wink)
ReplyDeleteThe things some folks do to have a little time off...
Enjoy your SoCal weekend, Sarge (same for everyone else, too)
👍
DeleteYes! We all get older (hopefully).
ReplyDelete👍
DeleteAs a military man what ever happened to following the maxim of "two is one and one is none"?
ReplyDeleteOnly God is perfect.
DeleteWhich is why the rest of us use the '2 is 1, 1 is none' rule, or also the reason why NCOs were invented. Weren't you an NCO?...
Delete🤬
DeleteBecause he was an NCO, and has experience, that is why all of us little folks listen and learn from his example. Because NOC's are all knowing wise leaders!!
DeleteBecause we know that term "experience" is gained from doing something in the un-approved manner...am I right??
Let me go check my computer bag again to be sure I have my power cord, and the hot spot wireless thingy... :)
Have fun in Sandy Eggo!!!
Thanks Suz, at last someone understands. 🙄
DeleteI do understand even if I can't proofread on Friday nights...sheesh...
DeleteSomeone, Old NFO maybe, had a "funny" up a while ago about how little kids do head, shoulders, knees and toes, while grown-ups in the 21st century do glasses, cell phone, laptop, go-cup, lunch box, etc, etc as we walk out the door in the mornings.
That we do. 🤣
DeleteSarge, I may or may not have done this. More than once. It was easier back in the day when all power cords were interchangeable. Now, I think I check them three times before I travel.
ReplyDeleteYup, usually I do. But Thursday was something of a cluster ...
DeleteI may have done the same at some point in the past while on work travel... Did you know all Dell chargers are interchangeable? On the off chance you're using a Dell laptop: might be worth seeing if the hotel lost and found contains a dell charger...
ReplyDeleteHPs are not.
DeleteOh well, sorry it doesn't help
DeleteYou tried.
DeleteThis is why I have two power cords, one permanently on my desk and one permanently in my laptop bag. Been there too.
ReplyDeleteOne at my desk, one in my bag, one at my desk at home, one in my car, one at each of three clubs that I belong to..... Been there as well. Where I work was scrapping out a bunch of computers and I grabbed a box full of chargers out of the trash.
DeleteBP - Company provided, company controlled.
DeleteJim - See above.
DeleteNope, I've never, ever done that.
ReplyDeleteWell, not in the last 5 minutes anyways.
Have a good weekend. You and Tuna gonna set the town on fire?
I'll be on the ship all weekend. I do plan on meeting up at some point with Tuna.
DeleteThe journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step. or stumble as the case may be.... Have as much fun as you dare...
ReplyDeleteMultiple stumbles, but that's a story for another day.
DeleteIf it's not proprietary to your company, check out the local 'I fix computer' place. Use the HP computer model and they'll have one, especially if the computer is recent.
ReplyDeleteAt least you didn't forget your clothes, or your meds, or your shoes. Right?
Have fun, hope you get one as it's most likely a part of your job.
Geez, you people act like this is my first rodeo.
DeleteAt least you don't need a Secret Service agent following you around with a diaper bag.
Delete🤣🤣🤣
DeleteThere is that.
No quarter for you, herr Sarge.
DeleteApparently not!
DeleteMy only suggestion would be to have your wife overnight it for you, but not too sure how dependable the over-nighter services are these days...
ReplyDeleteThe problem has been resolved, it involved funds changing hands and a place called Walmart.
DeleteCool!! Now you have one that can live only in your suitcase!!
Deletelol
True!
DeleteGive Shelter Island a look, the fishing pier there, nice view of Coronado/NAS North Island. West on Rosecrans Street, left at Shelter Island Drive. Not too bad of a restaurant at the pier either. https://fathombistro.com/home/
ReplyDeleteJim
I'll see if I can make it out that way. Sounds nice.
