My rough ridin' computer (work) has been screwing around all morning trying to apply a Windows update (I think).  It's been several hours.  IT guy is all  :dunno:
Hate this. Also hate it when I'm in a hurry to leave the office, shut down the computer only to have it tell me that it will be applying 25 Windows updates and NOT to turn off my computer for any reason. It takes its time to apply all 25 major updates and I'm late to whatever commitment I was rushing out the door to originally.  :angry: (IT experts, what will happen if I just force it to shut down next time?)

Does the computer have to be off?  Shut down the monitor, it will appear off, and get going

What's the reasoning for waiting around for the compewterr to shut off?  Just shut the monitor off and bail.

Oh man this is what I did last night instead of apply these updates.  Now it's 1115, computer is working, but I'm already thinking about those samosas and the tandoori chicken at this Indian place we're going for lunch.  Morning:  RUINED BY NAZI RUSSIANS DISGUISED AS FREEDOM LOVING 'MERICANS!  :curse:

You know what they say only drug dealers and doctors have pagers. omg! lol  It's not really a pager (during residency they actually do still use pagers) it's an Iphone but does that really matter?  It is still keeping me awake at night.  fml  :goodbyecruelworld:

can confirm doctors still use pagers.  apparently they have a stronger signal than cell phones and are more reliable.
