the office/space

I had a moment today that was straight out of a combination of The Office and Office Space. Actually more than a moment...it was most of my day. We spent like a thousand bucks to get a new fancy color laser printer and no one cared to mention it to us that HP printers will only work "optimally" with certain paper. So I am pretty sure I wasted over half of a reem of cardstock and then chatted with a HP specialist to discover that the paper we were using was twice as heavy as it should be, thus jamming EVERYTIME I attempted to print (after working perfectly for the first week). I truly wanted to take a baseball bat to it. And for the past couple weeks I've been identifying with an unexpected member of The Office staff-Michael Scott. Not in the horribly inappropriate comments-agonizing to watch way, but in the having to deal with corporate way. Who knew being a Director of Fun came with office politics and the desire to destroy company property?
