"So when we do our taxes this year, is it for 2005, or 2006?"

Coworker watching film coming out of the image setter: "So, where does the color come from"? A dead serious question from someone who had been making Matchprints for 3 months.

Another frequently pronounced magenta "mag-neta".

Yet another calls the IT guy in becuase his monitor wouldn't work, only to find out the power cord isn't plugged in...oh wait, that was me. ops: Yes, sometimes I am the idiot coworker. In my own defense, there's a lotta wires back there. :wink:

Thanks for a lot of good laughs

Thanks, everyone. I never knew how well off I was until I read this thread. It's a scream! And yes, I know, it's all TRUE!

I will check in whenever I need a good laugh.

Regards,
Michele
