We apparently don't need the latest and greatest, haha.</p> <p>@QueensBee: Hopefully it's only two weeks! But it oculd also be less. I'm hoping it's shorter!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/omg-no-internet-starting-monday/page/2#post-1245559 Tue, 26 Nov 2013 19:00:41 +0000 QueensBee 1245559@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: Oh no!!!

When I did, we got a new machine every 3 years. I don't think I could do some of the work I was required to do if I didn't have a pretty beefy, current machine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/omg-no-internet-starting-monday/page/2#post-1245207 Tue, 26 Nov 2013 16:22:13 +0000 Adira 1245207@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bluestriped bee: Yeah, our IT is slow too. That's why it's taking so long to get my new computer! Ugh!! Of course, it probably doesn't help that I think we laid off half the IT department recently!!!</p> <p>@shopaholic: haha, @Smurfette and I are HB-BFFs! My real-life BFF even knows about Smurfette (and that I refer to her as Smurfette, which makes my friend chuckle).</p> <p>And I'm really not SUPPOSED to be on-line as much as I am, but... you know... it's HB... I have to be on here... :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/omg-no-internet-starting-monday/page/2#post-1245195 Tue, 26 Nov 2013 16:20:16 +0000 shopaholic 1245195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>ahahahha! OK, I'm totally laughing at the shout-out to @smurfette:!</p> <p>Oh man - I'm impressed you could even be online that much at work! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/omg-no-internet-starting-monday/page/2#post-1245189 Tue, 26 Nov 2013 16:19:03 +0000 mrs. bird 1245189@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>:( my condolences, that is sad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/omg-no-internet-starting-monday/page/2#post-1245186 Tue, 26 Nov 2013 16:16:53 +0000 BSB 1245186@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: OMG. Two weeks! </p> <p>Oh, my company just upgraded to Windows 7. I got switched over in September. I'm in the lab most days but I still have to use my computer for emails and reports. Our company is very slow when it comes to IT issues. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/omg-no-internet-starting-monday/page/2#post-1245153 Tue, 26 Nov 2013 16:09:09 +0000 Adira 1245153@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sunny: haha, yes, I'm a software developer! I'm using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008. It's only 5 years old! :) We're only upgrading now to Windows 7 because Microsoft is no longer going to support XP and provide security patches! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/omg-no-internet-starting-monday#post-1244915 Tue, 26 Nov 2013 15:12:41 +0000 MsMini 1244915@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never ceased to be amazed at how many jobs let people access message boards/social media while at work - if I was caught on HB on a work computer I would be in HUGE trouble! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/omg-no-internet-starting-monday#post-1244888 Tue, 26 Nov 2013 15:09:32 +0000 sunny 1244888@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: OMG you are still using XP?!?! And you're a software developer right? What IDE do you use? Why aren't they updating everyone to current gen hardware and OSes? When I was working they forced us to upgrade because our hardware vendors wouldn't support older versions. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/omg-no-internet-starting-monday#post-1244726 Tue, 26 Nov 2013 14:36:45 +0000 Adira 1244726@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Blue: hahaha!</p> <p>@Mrs. High Heels: It's going to make my days DRAGGGGGGG! :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/omg-no-internet-starting-monday#post-1244673 Tue, 26 Nov 2013 14:22:35 +0000 cascademom 1244673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: haha!!
