So, I'm trapped on the 9th floor
Jan. 2nd, 2008 08:27 amI come into work today, hop on the elevator but don't need to use my badge, as someone has already hit the button for my floor.
I get to my cube and try to log into my computer. My account had expired. I make a quick check and, sure enough, my badge doesn't work, either. Looks like when my manager extended my contract, he forgot to get my access to computer and security extended. I'm on a computer now because I have a resource account for my project. However, I can't get any work done because I cannot access my email or any of the websites showing what bugs are pending. And can't go anywhere because of not having a working badge - if I go in the elevator or stairwell, I'll get stuck unless I can get someone to help me. My coworkers on my team all get in late as it is. So, here I am, twiddling my thumbs. At least I'm getting paid for it.
Oh yeah. Happy New Year and all that. ;) I'll get to posting about the end of the year and such later.
EDIT: Managers arrived and got my access fixed. So I can work and even leave the building ;)
