sort by date fail

the printer at work breaks sometimes and when it does i get frustrated and go home. i have a pretty badass laserjet printer at home that i like to brag about sometimes, so you might wonder why i ever fucking bother using the printer at work. one reason is that i’d rather not waste my toner because those cartridges are a pain to replace (if you’re extremely lazy like me). another reason is that i am extremely lazy and my printer is on a desk separate from the desk where i usually put my computer. on that desk, the computer usually gets plugged in and out to a bunch of stuff, so i have to, like, un- and replug things if i’m moving over to the other desk to print something. and like i say, i’m really lazy.

anyway, so my last print job at work failed and i wanted to see if it had freakishly completed while i wasn’t paying attention so i opened up print queue to see and tried to sort by date. except when you sort by date, you get this:

it’s a pretty amazing date sorting algorithm fail, and i’d like to thank whatever apple intern was responsible for that. you’ve made my morning.
