One of the I.T. staff stopped by while in the process of doing a physical inventory of fax machines.
“You know, I get the impression this hasn’t been done in a very long time.”
“Really? What makes you say that?”
“Well, I have 3 fax machines here listed for Collins 126”
“Hmmmm, I’m not familliar with 126… what room is that?”
“That’s the womens restroom…”
“HHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
“You know, if they can have fax machines in thier restrooms, we should get network jacks in ours… 🙂 ”
(if you ask me, that would bring a whole new definition to I. P., or rather an old definition… 😉 )
Side note,
If he is correct, this would mean this inventory he is working from was taken before the remodel and renumbering 13 years ago. I actually think it was done more recently. I would bet it was performed on paper, and when it was entered in the computer the really bad penmanship was misread… It’s happend before…
