National S#!t Show week
Not quite over the cliff, so it can’t be called a trainwreck, I’m dubbing this “National S#!t show week.”
Why would I call it that?
- Hail damaged the cars and houses where my daughter lives. I have a video that won’t upload showing cars looking like they were being pounded by baseballs.
- One of the people I work with was just thrown out of her home. She had only a few days to pack and leave after the guy who rented it to her (possibly without a rental agreement) sold the house. She works full time and has been packing for days.
- My son has a 15 year old daughter who thought it would be fun to walk through the woods, not tell anyone where she was going, and accidentally drop her phone into a creek while her dad considered issuing an Amber alert. Enough said.
All of the above makes my personal s#!t show seem almost meaningless. I finally have a new computer system…sort of.
GOOD NEWS: It’s fast. Very, very fast — a refreshing change from waiting 5 minutes for the computer to think.
BAD NEWS: “Accessibility” means white letters on a black background. That’s it. Why? The creators of this piece of garbage (aka Windows 10 Pro) think that everyone wants to read light blue Calibri print on a shiny bluish-white background (Imagine having light blue letters half the size of this print). So far, the consensus in the office is, “What were they thinking?
WORSE NEWS: Adobe doesn’t even care enough to do give me the option of choosing white letters on a black background. Noooo…I get the shiny bluish-white background with skinny little light blue letters.
To avoid another migraine, anything that requires reading a PDF will be completed at home until further notice.
That must be tough Joelle.

If Microsoft had any common sense, I’d still be able to change the screen to a grey background with black letters.
That’s the problem with this world, common sense has been tossed out the window.

It’s quite rare; common sense.

He’re’s hoping you don’t have any minor or major catastrophies this week. 🙂
