I am Pete Ryan, you may have heard of me...No? Did you find something with peteryan.com labeled on it? I would really like to have it back and there may be a reward! pete at peteryan dot com

This is my little spot on the web where I spew words either every day or a few times a year. Who knows.

8.02.2006 - Served.

I got served.


I am no longer allowed to have my fan at work. I have had it here for the last 6 years and they started cracking down on this stuff after the building almost went dark Monday. So my trusty fan will be heading home when it will find use in the office/bike room.

There are two things I find funny about this. 1) I have 2 computers, 1 server, a monitor, laser printer and a scanner in my cube. I would have to guess that the fan uses the least amount of power. 2) When I was talking to the guy who gave me my fan termination notice I asked about some of the other stuff they found. Some of the obvious are fans, little fridges, other lights. But these two threw me off. Microwaves and get this...George Foreman Grills. Who the fuck decides, eh, I fell like a little lemon chicken for lunch, let me whip out the GF Grill and cook some up. I bet some a-hole has a Fry Daddy up in the Customer Service area. Seriously, a Foreman Knock Out the Fat Grill.

Anyway, I went to the gym last night and the damn Mole was there again. I have been going a little earlier than I used to go so I miss out on his locker room shenanigans. There were 2 guys from one of the newly acquired Northwest Fitness clubs that had a hard time figuring out how to use the locker. Put the card it, close the door, twist the key, take the key. Tough. Took them 5 full minutes and then I showed them how it worked. :)

Well back to work for me, I need to spend the last few days at work with my fan.

That's weak! I know when we 1st moved into the new BBY buildings people could not have mini fridges, microwaves or small space heaters but come on, a fan or a desk light. That's just sad.

Yeah, totally fucking weak. Wait until you see my super USB powered fan system I am making to spite them. ;)

Your Foreman comment - hilarious! I could see if your fan was a fire hazard, like a space heater, but COME ON. It is a fan. Corporate BS is what that is!
