She might have tried to vacuum the keyboard. That's my guess  .

Perhaps you should try cleaning all the years worth of detritus from in-between the keys of your keyboard. Maybe that's what your cleaner was trying to do for you... Imagine trying to clean all that dead skin buildup. And all the nutella... and breadcrumbs... sheesh

I've tried, but I couldn't get the keys loose! (true story)

Vacuuming - knock the keyboard onto the floor (is it wired?) - key pops off unnoticed - picked up by the vacuum cleaner.
She does not want to admit to knocking the keyboard to the floor and genuinely has no idea why you are wittering on about the missing key.
And I thought my paranoia was getting the better of my judgement.

The keyboard is wired. If it were to fall on the floor it would probably take my monitor and speakers with it (but more likely is that they keep the keyboard from falling).
She said she noticed the missing key right away and it was like that when she got here.
Now that sounds like a lie to not have to pay for damages.
Although I do somehow believe she's not lying to me... So I really wonder how she managed to wreck the key without noticing

You can afford a cleaner and you expect us poorly paid keyboard monkeys to be sympathetic? :P
Best way to phone help someone fix a broken keyboard?
1. Grasp keyboard firmly in both hands
2. Raise keyboard above head
3. Shake real hard.
Wait for the screams...

If that cleaner wrecks my keyboard I won't even be a poorly paid keyboard monkey!

Sounds like a scene from a bad porno.
"You lost a key."
"No, monsieur I didn't."
"Take off your shirt.... Uh, on the other hand, put it back on and go away."

Who but the guilty party would even notice it was already like that? I don't think a cleaning lady would even be paying attention to what's on my desk...

There is a feature request to add a right-click context menu item to take you straight to the fonts and colors element that needs to be changed. This is a source of pain for me and hopefully many others so I thought I would reach out and see if I can get some support for this item.

Can you help a brother out with your extra votes?

I am no VS user, but this sounds like a nifty little improvement. Have my 3 votes.

At least you have votes to give. I've got a total of 20 items with a single vote on both personal addresses tied to MSDN. That's (barely) enough to track everything I care about. The only thing missing is the Eternal Bring Back VB6 Post; but finding MS's Close-LARTing is easy enough since no sooner do they kill one than a successor spawns linking to it and resuming the whining.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
