The thing is, I'm fine to an extent with the annoyances on their home turf. They are not ALLOWED to bother me on MY turf. They crossed the line. And it's a computer? How am I supposed to yell at (and make witty comments to) a computer? I can't get a machine to quit their job and spiral into depression!
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
