Quotes from the Meet-Me-Line

During a testing conference call for a big deploy, there're usually 20+ people on the line, babbling. It's like IRC, but vaguely productive. Nevertheless, the shit that comes over the line is occasionally unbelievable. I decided to write things down tonight, since I was on that damn phone from 2100 to 0005.

F'rinstance:
A: I can't punch the buttons fast enough.
B: Maybe we need to bring you in an assistant.
A: No, it's that my chin's in the way.

After several people at the testing site had connection issues with their awful IP phone system:
C: And I ran the SIF, and I got no errors.
B: So you're not having any problems?
C: And I.... touched ...buttocks... was tasty.
B: I think that the phones at your site are having problems.

Finally, getting ready for victory on this fine St. Paddy's Day:
Glenn: Are you starting to chill the champagne?
Desi: I'm turning into a leprechaun.
