Jem made a posting that somehow reminded me of tech support, the most frustrating part of what I do (okay, maybe next to having to dealing with irrational people… or rather person). Users can sometimes be so passive. Sometimes all they had to do is stop and think just a little bit before calling and they could have solved the problem on their own (like loosely plugged or even unplugged computers). Or perhaps listen to (and understand) what they are told and you wouldn’t need to actually go and fix for them (like how to connect to network shares). I would call them stupid but I’m nice, so I won’t. Or did I just? >:)

I was pretty irritable today. I wasn’t cross to anyone, unlike yesterday while I was talking to Globe. But somehow I feel I was much more so today than yesterday. Maybe I woke up too early (had to leave early). Maybe it was the heat (two days without a functional air conditioning can do that). Maybe it’s having to deal with irrational people (person, actually). Maybe I need a vacation (good thing Holy Week is just around the corner). Maybe it’s the time of the month :P Whatever the reason, I hope I’m better tomorrow. I don’t like feeling this way. It’s… irritating.

This morning, somebody sent me a link to a vid of the Bb. Pilipinas winner doing the Q&A portion of the contest. I don’t know what’s the point of sending it to me but all I can say is give it a rest. If she’s judged to be the winner, then she’s the winner. Yeah, yeah, everyone thinks they’re better judges. But hey, she seems to be pretty, she seems to have poise, maybe she’s reasonably intelligent and she can probably communicate well in her native Tagalog. If you think someone is better, then recommend her for next year. If you think you’re better go join. But then her detractors are probably fuglies who won’t even make the audition much more fare any better under stress.
