Fly Fishing


Background info: our 'Sales Department' worker is on vacation and we decided it was time to update his workstation. We got rid of his 10-year old computer and got him a new toy from Office Depot, along with a second monitor. I was in charge of the aesthetics of Windows 8 and making it look as much as possible like Windows Vista (a difficult task, I might add).
Dale took it upon himself to fix the mess of wires which connected the two monitors, tower, printer, scanner, phone, and ethernet cables to each other and his quote of the day is as follows:

"Lacing wires is like fly fishing. Only without the fish, and without the water, and without the fishing. You learn this in the army."

I hope it WAS like fly fishing, because he had to redo his beautifully laced wires 3 times since we kept on having issues with HDMI cables not talking to each other. All in all, it was an 8-hour work day well spent.
