Playing the Waiting Game

I just started my new job a week ago and when I took it there were some perks that were to go along with it, things I need to do my job. The main thing that I am waiting on is my laptop. My laptop is very important for me and my job, see I need to be able to access our database in order to place work orders for things going on in the fall season. So now I wait, and wait, and wait until my boss can find me a laptop for me to use. So I'll have to play the game.
