As I’ve just noted, I match and dispatch refurbished whole-system exchanges as a big part of my current job. (That may be changing soon, but it’s too early to say.) As I also just noted, matching refurbs is a very detail-oriented, fiddly process. It’s a good day when you can get twenty-five done. Except for me. Until now, I counted anything over thirty as a good day, and forty was the ne plus ultra. I had only done forty twice in my life, and one of those two times was last Friday.
It would now appear that either I ran out of work or I just wasn’t trying on Friday, because today when I shut down, I had dispatched fifty-three systems, including two servers, which are lots harder to do than desktops and laptops. That means I just topped my previous best day by more than twenty percent.
And before someone asks, yes, my managers are taking notice ’cos I particularly told them what I’d done, and they were impressed.
