Instructions

I think the instructions for my telescope were originally written in Sanskrit and then translated into Mandarin Chinese before being translated into English by a dyslexic chimney sweep. I believe I would not have understood less had they left it in the original text.
That's kind of a pet peeve with me. I'm technical by nature and my elevator has a full load on most days, but some instructions are so poorly written that it would be a challenge for the inventor to follow them. To the person writing the instructions, I'm sure they make perfect sense but to anyone else, they are pure gibberish.
I have been slammin' and jammin' at work. My new boss has the audacity to expect me to WORK!
Actually I enjoy staying busy. It makes the days fly by. The nature of the work is good too because we are helping lay the groundwork for how the computers will be maintained once the transition is complete.
I think I'm going to have another go, at trying to get this telescope set up. Maybe the instructions were originally written in Arabic and if I read them backwards, it might make more sense. More later.
