This week I'm going to be in a week-long training session on how to implement and program a Small and Medium Enterprise Telephony Solution.*
What that means to you is that I won't be around as much to keep you yahoos in line, although I have tried to pre-post. I try to take my responsibilities as your dancing monkey seriously, I do.
What that means to me is that I'm making progress towards one of my professional goals this year, which is essentially to become a Subject Matter Expert on this particular product. While I consider it a worthwhile goal in its own right, I'm not sure how excited I am about it - I've always been a LARGE ENTERPRISE engineer, and I still harbor some residual snobbishness about the whole thing.
In the meantime, feel free to talk about me behind my back - I (probably) won't see it until I get home, and by then I will have started drinking, so it won't matter, anyway.

*See? Now most of you don't know any more than you did before you started reading, and I put myownself to sleep just writing it out.

Bluto: [thrusting six-pack into Flounder's hands] My advice to you is to start drinking heavily.
Otter: Better listen to him, Flounder, he's in pre-med.
It's not your thing I know, But I will light a candle and pray for you. If it's the system I suspect. I may start drinking also.....
As long as you don't implement one of those systems where they ask you to type in your 14 fucking digit ID number, scroll through a couple of menus, then dump you to a live person whose first question is "what is your ID number".
I swear the next time that happens to me I'm reaching right through the telephone line all the way to East Bumfuck, TN, strangle my interlocutor, and then I'm coming after the engineer who designed that system.
See if I don't.
I'm looking at YOU, Dell and AmEx.
