Saboteurs

If anyone on this planet asks me (again) why I am afraid to get into an airplane, I will refer them to an article that winnipeg real estate title search appeared on Yahoo.com this morning: “Study: Disgruntled Workers Likely Saboteurs”. [1]

According to this piece, The Department of Homeland Security (yes they’ve finally come out with something useful) has discovered that grumpy, out-of-sorts, bad mood, carrying-a-chip-on-their-shoulders, disgruntled employees sabotage their work. Are we talking here major Passive-Aggressive wackos or what?

This ought to scare you to death!

I have worked on “The Management” as well as “The Managed” side of all sorts of jobs. I have seen this psycho-wacko behavior on more than one occasion.

Once I was working on “The Managed” side of a company that made all manner of surgical supplies. One such item they made was a heart catheter. It was rated with a natural 4 percent failure rate—and I think I know why.

“A review of the sabotage cases revealed an array of techniques for hurting a company through its electronic resources. Attacks included deleting mission-critical software and data, posting pornography

Net Lingo: Huh!?

How times have changed! There is internet lingo that puzzles me. Actually, it’s downright confusing. I hear terms bantered about such as ASP, Baud, CATP, and MUD to name a few, so I decided to look up some of these terms using the various internet resources available. It became obvious to me that I will never be an upper level website designer or a website designer at all for that matter. I leave that to you technical gurus. Being someone who is set in my ways (that’s part of what a curmudgeoness is), I have definite ideas as to what computer words, acronyms, and initializations should mean rather than their actual technical meaning.

Cited below are ten examples as to why I have computer lingo dysfunction - the first paragraph is my version of the word, the second paragraph is the correct version:

1. Applet: Reminds me of a small apple. My mother always said, “An apple a day keeps the doctor away”. Sometimes I can’t eat a whole apple so I figure if you can’t eat a whole apple, then an applet will do. Net lingo states that an Бойлеры applet is a small Java program that can be embedded in an HTML page. I’m really confused. I thought Java meant “coffee”. orange county va real estate listings I think I need another cup.

2. Archie: Used to be a comic strip character in the 1950s and is later associated with the bigoted, irascible main character, Archie Bunker in the TV sitcom, All In The Family. I loved my Archie comic books. My mother used to get mad at me for leaving them strewn all over my bedroom floor.

According to my internet resource, Archie is software used for finding files stored on anonymous FTP sites. Sounds pretty sneaky to me…getting into anonymous sites…kind of like my mother sneaking into my room while checking out my comic book stash. I wish I could have stored my comic books on a site rather than Компьютерная периферия my bedroom floor, and then I wouldn’t have been in as much trouble with my mother.

3. ASP: Means as soon as possible. When my mother said, “Clean your room ASP (she never said
