Oooohd!
to a word
processor
Oh
Microsoft Word I know you of old
I ask for italics you
write things in bold
I justify left, you
proportionally space
I write 10 words per min
and you can't stay the pace
I ask for a new line, I get
inserted
CAD
I just touch the mouse and the menus go mad
Spell checker is happy if I spell socks with an X
When I'm trying to save you want Name, Rank, and Sex!
If I dare change the
font
you reformat
with glee
And you move all my text down from page 2 to 3
Then dare to ask 'would you like to PREVIEW?"
And show me a letter someone wrote in Urdu
And as for the FORMAT, I
won't go again
You wrote in small caps and then set out a frame
Removed all the borders and boxed all the text
And then asked me to paginate "All keep with next"
You seem to think Swedish
is my native
tongue
And ASCII and ANSI were just coded for fun
You don't like the Pound sign; I have to use YEN
Now I post-script my letters divide prices by ten
You're Grammar checks
great, (if
you speak
like a DORK)
And the Flesch Grade is nice for the guys in New York
But now you've discovered a new kind of hell
You keep drifting away to use simple Excel
|
Now I've
mentioned all this, have you taken the hint?
Is that why I'm having all this trouble to print?
You've shown me the PREVIEW don't want to MERGE
Am I OUTSIDE THE MARGINS? I don't want to CONVERGE
I've
been trying for hours now (I've just checked the
log)
I want a printout of this not the FLESCH or the FOG
I'm not really concerned if you can't SAVE THE CHANGE
Or even if FORMAT CANNOT BE RE-ARRANGED
All I
want is hard copy, a simple request
Now swallow your grammar and please do your best
I've primed up the printer and filled up the tray
Do you possibly think you can print it TODAY?
Not the SUMMARY INFO, NO, the TEMPLATE IS FINE,
And don't put all the
text on one single line
Just do
what I want and I will be gone
Never again to select your icon
'Just print this damn letter, that's what you're here for
Blast! I've just hit Alt and F4
