Meetings suck...I'll have the salmon.

Let's all just start by agreeing on that. Thank you. That said, 8am meetings are WORSE. Granted, I work in MST so it's a 10am meeting for my counterparts in EST, but no one seems to give 2 figurative shits about that. Why did you miss the meeting? Um...because I was driving through a dead spot on my way to work, because it was 8 o'goddamn clock in the morning! Stop it already. We all know they are a waste of time anyhow.

Click to run? More like click to fuck off...

Ah Office 365. Double ah to Click to run (C2R) versions of Office. Apparently you can't install C2R if you have a non-standard office suite application (I'm looking at you Visit and Project) installed via MSI package already. You have to uninstall it first or the C2R installer fails without warning. Who does that? (And by that I mean leave no error message.) And on top of that, you need special licenses (aptly named C2R-P licenses) so that you can deploy the MSI versions alongside C2R installs. Anyone have a 5-pound sledge...? ~Me
