    I pride myself in having things done quickly...but it does make me look like a slouch when I am on WD for most of the day...

    I do things quickly so I can have more time to screw around on the company's dime.

    Usually the machines I need to work on (on my own time) are older and already take ages to do anything, so any time saved is more time spent with my family for me.

    Defragging a drive is usually the last step I take on a Pentium MMX166 so that I don't have to suffer through it anymore.

    Maybe I should get a version of DisKeeper that would work on that hardware...

    Had a company engineer call me once on a Saturday whining about not seeing the task bar on his new Win98 machine. I dislike this guy and since he was calling me long distance on my saturday I made him stay on the line while I had him reload windows (snicker ). After he was done and in near tears because no one could fix his his machine including his wifes' friends at the University of Washington, I asked him to put his cursor down there to the bottom of his screen tell me what happened and for him to drag it up. Boy was he pissed at my laughter. I could have done this the short way, but having him pay the phone bill and making the moron fell like one was worth every second.
    The Moral Majority is neither.

    You might be quicker defragging it on your system before reinstaling it?

    I try to make things take longer but by nature I do stuff as fast as I can, so I always do twice as much as the coworker and sit on my rump posting about band camp 5 times as much.

    Well you see, the first year I went was the first time I kissed a girl, I was 13.

    Second time I went, I got to go up a girls shirt, I was 14.

    Third time I went, well

    Fourth time I went, well with 2 different chicks

    Fifth time I went, well and she lived near me and we kept dating for a year.
