My boss got himself an iPad and asked me to set it up. Of course, me being a great employee I do it. A few days later he comes to say that he can’t open some files and I should fix it. I check those files (xls/xlsx) via e-mail client and they work just fine. So I ask him to show me how did he try to open those files.
- open safari
- visit google.com
- search for yahoo
- at yahoo.com select mail
- input username and password
- open the e-mail in question
- attempt to open the files in question
- que him being smug as fuck “I told you they don’t work and you didn’t fix anything”
Then I just opened the mail client (which I told him to use) and open those files without any problems.

Look who’s smug as fuck now ?
Ha! I love that he used Google to search for Yahoo.
I helped out someone the other day who believed that to get to any website, you had to do it from Google. She was upset that I went directly to a site without going to Google first and searching for it. Supposedly someone had told her that it would “break the Internet” if she went to a site directly.
