WARNING: This conversation is rated as lethally boring |1:56 PM| Right, I'm sitting here, trying to figure out with Calfee how I can find $20 to pay for Effexor so I stop being crazy.
Calfee and I determined that our bank accounts read $1.10 and $1.43 available, respectively. This is despite each of us having thousands of dollars coming our way via check and deposit.
Well, I didn't find a solution, but I bought a cupcake with some of my last cash, so I'm less...whatever kind of full tilt boogie crazy I am right now.
While Calfee is sitting here, I get a call from a tech in Nashville, and he's got an issue, I now cut to the middle of that conversation.
Tech: So they were getting a 900 error, and I swapped the RIP board, and now it's a 980 Engine Control Error. I swapped it back for the first board, back to the 900. I've only got one board.
Me: Check the queue, is there a PDF in there?
Tech: Yeah, it's hung up in there.
Me: Bingo, the PDF's will cause those flat 900 errors sometimes.
Tech: You mean they'll freeze up the 2455 rasterization process?
Me: Absolutely, I clear 'em out all the time instead of changing boards. 9 times out of ten it's a corrupt PDF.
Tech: Alright, then I've got to track some people down.

Christ, it sounded like made up military jargon conversations you hear in movies. Had it been about guns, that would have been interesting. But because it's about printers... GAAAAAH
I'm so glad I have this cupcake. It understands.
OH GOD I ATE THE CUPCAKE FORGIVE ME
