X-13 Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 Is Emma one of the prizes? I could use an Emma to deal with people at work. 2
Gonk Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 Is Emma one of the prizes? I could use an Emma to deal with people at work. Ditto - I've got plenty of people (teachers) she can sort out here too! "If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if @VeryPC will let you, maybe you can hire Emma from Accounts..."
ICTDirect_Dave Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 Ditto - I've got plenty of people (teachers) she can sort out here too! "If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if @VeryPC will let you, maybe you can hire Emma from Accounts..." And if they can't spare her you can have our accounts lady Jackie. she's a Scary *ahem* wonderful woman!
X-13 Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 And if they can't spare her you can have our accounts lady Jackie. she's a Scary *ahem* wonderful woman! I'll take one of each! 2x the rage per day.
Gonk Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 I'll take one of each! 2x the rage per day. Note to self - Never visit X-13 if the borrowed accounts ladies are in residence.
crc-ict Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 Thank you Al and all at VeryPC - looks good to me. Good luck to all the other EduGeeks! 1
mac_shinobi Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 Thank you Al and all at VeryPC - looks good to me. Good luck to all the other EduGeeks! Day two - whose next ? :-)
X-13 Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 whose next ? :-) It's my next. I forgot that I left it here. [/pedant] 1
ICTDirect_Dave Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 That's a shortcut of sorts. Good whisky will do it faster, but a large amount of beer could work out cheaper. He's going to kill us you know? I'll take one of each! 2x the rage per day. Well you can't have her on mondays, thats when she tells schools off for not paying us quickly enough. The rest of the week however...
VeryPC Posted October 2, 2013 Author Posted October 2, 2013 Is Emma one of the prizes? I could use an Emma to deal with people at work. I know - what a performance! Before we shot, we decided that she was going to be all chirpy and helpful, then she sprung THAT on me with no warning. Way to improvise Emma. I can assure you that my reactions in video are quite genuine. Al
VeryPC Posted October 2, 2013 Author Posted October 2, 2013 Thank you Al and all at VeryPC - looks good to me. Good luck to all the other EduGeeks! You're welcome. Your ticket has been stored in a safe place and will be put back in the chassis after the final daily draw and before the PS4 star prize draw, so good luck to you too for the end of the month. Al

Way to improvise Emma. I can assure you that my reactions in video are quite genuine. Al I guessed it was a genuine reaction. I actually thought, for a moment, you just wound up Emma when she was doing legit work.
VeryPC Posted October 2, 2013 Author Posted October 2, 2013 I guessed it was a genuine reaction. I actually thought, for a moment, you just wound up Emma when she was doing legit work. I've rewatched the vid a couple of times and I'm still not quite sure if Emma's rage is staged or not. If she hadn't been laughing and joking with me before and after we shot I'd be pretty worried now. My fave bit is when she destroys the wall. We said "pull the box out quite firmly so that the wall falls over", which she interpreted as "wrench it to the side as hard as you can and launch half of the boxes into the ceiling". Just class. Al

Al That was good. It looked like she'd had enough of your silliness. I half expected to see the box fly at your head.
sparkeh Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 Ha just watched (strike day yesterday). Think Emma needs to be in every vid. Many laughs
VeryPC Posted October 2, 2013 Author Posted October 2, 2013 Loving the thread reaction to Emma's performance. She should go on Britain's got talent as a Hulk impersonator. "...I'm always angry"
VeryPC Posted October 2, 2013 Author Posted October 2, 2013 (edited) "Ladeez aaaaan gennelmen!" As promised in the first vid, and with his permission, here is a link to the full version of @Gonk's awesomely crafted STOCKTOBER2! theme tune vid: http://youtu.be/JAIuDlrwT4I I love the abnormality of a very smart belanyarded professional ICT Network Manager calmly singing his own words along to The Muppets infront of his webcam, and the little chuckle at the end is fantastic. If you enjoy this, be sure to give Gonk some rep for his contribution. Thanks again Gonk. Al Edited October 2, 2013 by VeryPC 1
X-13 Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 He's going to kill us you know? Possibly... But what a cool headstone engraving! "Killed by furious geek" [Or "wound up SysAdmin"] It's a warning to any and all staff who think it's wise to annoy IT.
VeryPC Posted October 2, 2013 Author Posted October 2, 2013 Right. Better draw the line on today's tickets going into the chassis. Winner draw video coming up shortly. Remember entries are still open, so if you get in now you'll be in the draw from tomorrow onwards until your name is drawn (but will be put back before the star prize PS4 draw).

X-13 Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 Wait... THAT'S @Gonk? I thought that was a VeryPc guy. I look so young compared to everyone else. Also, is that a HP LaserJet Pro CP1525nw? [Or one of the CP1520 series] 1
VeryPC Posted October 2, 2013 Author Posted October 2, 2013 Also, is that a HP LaserJet Pro CP1525nw? [Or one of the CP1520 series] and if you look closely, you may notice that there's also a guy singing in the foreground.
