my friend sent a perfectly undestandable and legit email to the PERSON IN CHARGE OF THE IT DEPARTMENT OF THE ENTIRE SCHOOL DISTRICT. Why is this funny? Well, you would think that the head of the it department (patrick) would know what these things meant...

I said it once in the pasting thread and I'll say it again: noob.

yep. the guys an idioit and shouldnt be in charge of the entire school district's it department!

Currently I'm following an American TV series called The Mentalist. And in that TV series, there's a charactor called Patrick too. (:lol2: yeah. I know what I'm saying has nothing to do with this thread.)

The Mentalist is good - very funny.

Yes it is.

I happened upon this thread and I had to join and post....

Sadly I used to work for Patrick @ NUSD, and let me say each day working with him was like being tortured in the fiery pits of hell.

It's sad when you know more than your immediate supervisor, and you have to take orders from an ass clown who doesn't know what the inside of a computer looks like.

The ONLY reason he got to be supervisor was because he was next in line... It wasn't because of what he thought he knew, or the school district thought he knew. If there was a problem Patrick was Mr. Google. He'd look up everything on the web in hopes he could bull shit the people @ NUSD into thinking he was a super tech. He bullied his way into a position of authority, and abused his postion terribly. I hope there is such thing as karma because this jacktard has a lot coming to him.

I left there in 2009 because I was close to strangling him in the parking lot at the district. I felt it was time to move on before I got myself into trouble.

Anyway that's my story...

OK, really? Your IP points to Oakland, so I believe you...he sounds like somebody who is a pain to work with. How did you find this thread?

Actually once in awhile I like to visit the old NUSD website just to see how things have changed since I left... Just for shits and giggles I searched Patrick's name on Google, and this thread came up...

Yes I hold some deep resentment towards that guy... and yes living well is the best revenge but man I hope to be there when the shit hits the fan for him some day. He was not fun to work with at all. As an atheist these are the times I wish for a hell in hopes he'll be part of the party down there.

Yeah I know... I need to get a life...

LOL something with the ISP
