Dear Users,

Did it ever occur to you that perhaps the IT department has a lot to do? Even though your problems are important, there is a good chance that there are also a million other problems that are important too. It is difficult to get everything done when everyone needs it because we are only one person. Also, it is not the IT departments job to help move your computer when you move your desk five times. Nor is it IT's job to fix the soda machine. Also, please stop glaring at me like, "you get paid way too much to not have my stuff done immediately." I also work a heck of a lot more hours and have a lifetime acquiring the specialized knowledge I use to complete a wide variety of functions that enable this office to run. You make $10/hour because you answer the phone. That's important too, but still, stop acting like you are my boss. You're not.

Signed,
Wife of an IT guy.

Dear Indi,

Thanks for saying my eyes are like stars. That's the nicest compliment I've gotten in a while. Elaborating to say they are like planets and balls was a bit less flattering. Saying my nose is like cars and my mouth is like a glass of water...well, I'm just not sure what to think about that.

Love,
Mommy

Dear Munchkin,

You're adoreable, and we love you. But if you scratch at the bedroom door at 5AM one more time, I'll have your balls cut off.

Love,
Sleepy

Dear IT Widow,
When it is just my problem, I do sympathize with IT and they get to me when they get to me.
When they are meant to do a system wide upgrade over a weekend, and tell EVERYONE to be ready on Monday, therefore no OT on the weekend... yeah well... I'm a little disgruntled. But I will live.
PS, the IT guys dont make enough for me to want the headache of their jobs.

Sincerely,
Payroll

Dear Fire Department, Alarm Company, and Security:

I appreciate your readiness to save our warehouse from burning to the ground, but certainly there must be an easy way to call off the emergency response mechanism when one simply burns some toast.

Dear Embarrassed Employee who should have made some coffee first,
I know how late you were up last night. I just wanted to make sure you were awake this morning.

Dear piece of paper:

How I love you so. So tasty, so chewy, and you make that fun rattly sound when I try dig at you. I'll be eternally grateful that my caretakers left you on the carpet for me to find.

I'm off to rattle the vertical blinds, back soon.

Love,
Munchykin

Dear Ponine,

I hope it didn't seem like my post was a reply to your post. It was merely inspired by. I'm sure your IT guys are idiots. :p I should probably also mention that although my IT husband adores his job and everyone there worships him (except for a former secretary and a few pompous agents that think he is their personal slave), he doesn't make enough money for me to want his job either. ;) My post was purely for humor and not because I am disgruntled in any way with any users.

Sincerely,
Tracilicious
