He asks us where we're at, and I tell him again (I mentioned in IRC that Ben and I were going out to lunch) "We're eating."
So he wastes no time in saying "Oh, well I brought down a switch."
"What do you mean, you brought down a switch? Took one to ACS?"
"No, I mean I accidentally took it down, can you guys get to back to ACS?"
"Umm.. yeah.. uh.. k.."
"Thanks man, see you."
So I put down my phone and begin inhaling the pho. Ben looks at me and asks who called. I told him it was Nick, and he asks "What did he want?" I reply, "He took a switch down, we need to eat fast and get back to ACS, do they have togo bowls or something?" He looks at me with a blank stare and says "No, they don't." And also starts to go at the Pho.
Now, I've only eaten Pho once before this. It was with Michelle. I really didn't think anything of it. It didn't taste that good, just kind of plain. But this pho, boy... It stomped on the first pho I had. I really really really want some more of that. I hated eating it so fast, not being able to savor the flavor. But maybe next time.
So we are on our way to ACS, in my car in which i intrust Ben in driving. He almost hits two cars on the way there, and cuts off at least 10 others. We get to ACS and have to console into the switch. Something I've only done once. We get to the switch and try consoling in with Ben's computer. No good, we sit there for about 20 minutes trying to figure this out. Meanwhile, Nick, being the cool guy he is is sitting 5 minutes away at the office. I only realized he was at the office when we got back to ACS. He should have fucking manned up to his mistake and drove 5 minutes to ACS and fixed it himself. I honestly don't fucking get it. He makes us leave our food because he couldn't drive 10~ miles or less to fix the switch HE FUCKED UP. Some fucking "manager" you are. So it turns out Ben needs the drivers and Joe gives the drivers to him to download. We get the drivers and finally console into the switch. Finally, nick is on his way to ACS to see if he can fix it. Meanwhile, Ben and I try to fix it, but no avail, we can't login. Nick gets there and does everything we tried. He then moves to his last resort. He reaches over and reboots the switch. It's fixed! Ta-da! We go back to our desks and Ben and I want to get more food since we didn't really get a lunch. Nick says okay, and I ask Nick and Jerry if they want anything from Guppy's. None of them had money but still ask for food. They say they'll pay us back, heh let's hope so. On our way out we run into Sreang who also wants something from Guppy's but doesn't have money. We get to Guppy's and order. There's a good amount of people there still, and it's about 10:30. Mostly younger kids, teenagers, high schoolers, college students, etc. 30 minutes later we get our food. Drive back, eat and leave work.
I get home and remember I have to go over to the PBM to meet Greg to pick up the money for the drinks tomorrow. We decide on how to set up the beer pong table, and what drinks, to make sure we have enough money. That seems about it. Toodles.
