Stupid File Transfer

Me: Hi, Tech. We’re assisting XYZ Corp., a customer of yours, and we need a new version of ABC App to run on their new server.

Tech: Uhhh… yeah, we got that.

Me: Great! Can I download it?

Tech: We can send you a CD.

Me: We’d like it today.

Tech: I can email it to you!

Me: How big is it?

Tech: About 50MB.

Me: (yeah right…) Okay, do that.

Hours later…

Me: Hi Tech’s voicemail, we still haven’t gotten that file. Maybe you could use http://senduit.com or http://wikisend.com to send it to us?

Time passes…

Tech: I tried both of those sites, but they don’t work. Can I just use our FTP site to get it to you?

Me: …

Stupid Postage

We took a large envelope to the local post office to have it mailed. They weighed it, and charged us $1.68 for postage.

The envelope was held at the receiving post office for lack of $0.40 postage.

Apparently the envelope got heavier in transit. I suspect this is the result of some sort of quantum physics effect due to the tremendous speed with which the envelope was transported.

Hi Sales,

Do you carry PGP? I need a price on a single license for a single user
of MS Outlook to decrypt emails.

Thanks,

Me

I'm not familiar with PGP. What is it?
