So today's my birthday.  I'm 33... whopee.

My morning starts off well enough, a couple of the legacy client
issues come in and I work to help them.  One of them asked for a user
to be created in their system.

Our new SOP requires that we not email user account information
directly in emails.  Instead we are supposed to create a PDF that
contains the login information.  I decide to create a "quick tool" to
generate those PDF's.

Then I find out that BD Free has the CFDocument tag disabled (those
that are on the other list will see the thread that I started).

As I'm going through that, I get a call from a client that asks that I
help her with an order on a legacy system.  I do so and email her the
proof and receipt, copying the requisite people internally.  In my
haste I copy the ENTIRE EMPLOYEE LIST email instead of ED, the
helpdesk manager.

One of my co-workers calls me and tells me that I did this AND that
there is a type-o in the order.  I post a recall request on the email
and go and re-place the order, correcting the type-o.

About that time I get a direct email from New Atlanta telling me that
I did, indeed, misinterpret the BD Free license agreement and need to
make sure that before we do take anything to production (lucky for me
nothing IS in production yet) we will need at least the JX license.

Then the network admin asks me if I want to recall my recall because
all of the "can't recall" emails are being sent to the ENTIRE EMPLOYEE
LIST as well.

Sum total of my morning:
- I look like an idiot to my co-workers because I have managed to
FLOOD their inboxes with recall failed messages.
- I look like an idiot to the client I was trying to help because I
misspelled their company name.
- I look like an idiot to my boss because I've worked hard to sell CF
running on BD as a solution since there would not be an engine cost.

Happy birthday to me... the idiot.
