I got to work to find that the battery in my wireless mouse was dead. I checked it and it uses a single AA battery. I walked to the supply cabinet to grab a few. Changed it out and figured I might as well change the batteries in my keyboard as well. The keyboard uses AAA batteries. The mouse and the keyboard are bought as a set. I had to walk back to the supply cabinet and dig around for AAAs. Why couldn't they make them use the same freakin' battery type?

Logitech says “you’re welcome” for allowing you to frick off a little bit longer.

I couldn't find my cell phone this morning and am at work blind. Actually, this if more of a blessing.

You had to walk twice? The horror.

You sound fat.

Clothes dryer stopped working yesterday. Repair guy can't come for over a week. Did laundry and hung clothes on balcony railings.

My bidet stopped working. Had to use toilet paper like a savage.

Was the keyboard dead?

Why waste time and effort changing out batteries that aren't yet dead?

That's like emptying your gas tank because it has 1/8th left.

I had to make a latte this morning and turn the seat warmers on in my car so I didn't get cold on the way to work!

It’s a keyboard. More letters (AAA > AA)

Duh!

You should complain to HR about your harsh working conditions, but you could have violated a policy by not entering an IT ticket for the "repairs" to your mouse and keyboard.
