So, I'm at work today typing out an email to an internal environment support technician -- something about getting my VOIP phone setup correctly or something -- and I had the following phrase:
...I called the helpdesk, and they of course had no idea what I was talking about...

Now, our email client at work (
Lotus Notes) tries to spellcheck every email before it sends in an attempt to catch/correct the most glaring mistakes. I'm all for this because if you've spent much time reading my posts, you'd realize I have horrible grammar skillz. But, I digress... So I click
Send and up pops the spellcheck window. I almost accept the correction but then I double-take because its trying to fix the work
helpdesk. Then I nearly fall off my chair laughing when I see what the
suggested word is. Lotus Notes, a product of IBM -- you know, the company that is trying to be
the World's Help Desk -- suggests I replace the work
helpdesk with
helpless.Oh, the irony! Oh, the Corporate World! It's like a
Dilbert strip or something.
