Pleb In Motion - Devilash at work

Today was an interesting day. I succeeded in illustrating to myself
just how the Devil Makes Work For Idle Thumbs.

Sat at my desk, with nowt pressing to do, I noticed an email that had
attached, a zip file containing the entire UK Workforce's performance
ratings (appraisal ratings).

So being idle, I decided to have a look. Alas instead of clicking
'Open' I clicked 'Print'. Not to worry - I thought, as I dashed to the
printer to cancel the job. Then it hit me, the default printer was in
the other office!!!!!

Luckily two things transpired. Firstly my former boss A.M. was on hand
to check the printer in the other office and intercept the printout.
Secondly, I discovered if you try to print a Zip File, it only prints
out a table of contents of whats inside.

THANK GOODNESS!

Alls well that ends well.
