Well, I'm getting my holiday weekend started an hour early. I'll catch you all on the flip side!  Have a great Thanksgiving weekend, enjoy yourselves, and be safe. Those of you who don't celebrate/recognize this holiday, have a great rest of the week and weekend.

Someone at work mailed me this[^]. No matter what this sign was intended for, there only can be one answer.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
I hold an A-7 computer expert classification, Commodore. I'm well acquainted with Dr. Daystrom's theories and discoveries. The basic design of all our ship's computers are JavaScript.

Doh! So I've had to take the whiteboard down. Someone tried to swipe it - not good at all so I've asked Roger and another developer to come up with a web site that displays the current status and version numbers of all of our projects and that gets updated when a build takes place. Would have asked Tim but he is utterly obsessed with version numbers so I had to let him go.
You'd think the bloody developers would have thought of that.

Wow. I hope you had more reason to fire him than just annoying you about the version numbers.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

And the next thing we hear from ya is that someone has hacked into the website and posted Ansel Adams pictures of, you know, au-natural nature...

Nobody wants to see that!

I would have been funnier if:
"So I've had to take the whiteboard down. Someone wiped it clean each night - not good at all ... Blamed Tim and let him go."
"Update - Just got a call from the janitorial service saying that cleaning the whiteboard each night was taking an extra half hour. The past few days are on the house, but going forward, we will be billed accordingly."

But that's not what happened. I think you think this is all made up but its happening, right now. Luckily, I've given the teams the day off for Thanksukkah so the new site won't be up for a few days.

Is that the sequel to this[^] fine cinematic epic?

Indeed it is. They are planning a sequal of the sequal but it won't be ready for about 79000 years...

Whoa whoa whoa. Jumping the gun aren't we? The correct next step is to replace the board with a shared spreadsheet. Then decide you need an intranet to replace it when it corrupts.

Are you sure the person wasn't just trying to take it home for the night to memorize it?

I can't tell if these posts are tongue in cheek or not. Seems someone's got a bit of a boss god complex going on.
I can pretty much guarantee that if you refer to your staff as 'bloody developers' they refer to you as worse.

It's very much tongue firmly in cheek.
