Just had another muppet moment at work ... putting a call through, and Jo at the other end says "Thanks Simon". I thought "how does she know it's me?" for a second (she only works shifts as she is one of the volunteer co-ordinators on the helpline) ... and then realised that:
1. There are only two men in my office. The other one never answers any phone.
2. (The clincher) My name comes up on the phone when I call through.
Earlier today I was asked to replace a "stiff" keyboard. The only thing wrong with it is that the springs are still new, and it hasn't been sufficiently hammered yet ...
EDIT: I've just topped all of that by trying to use the wheel on my mouse to scroll a document. A paper document that just happens to be resting on my keyboard against my monitor in lieu of a document stand.
