What is wrong with you people?
This is what you experienced when you've been working in IT field too long...
- As I was cleaning today, I've managed to stack some of old boxed softwares, to my surprise by an hour later, a box was missing. Somebody apparently just took the software expecting to score some freebie, I was laughing becuz as I remember the box contained Norton Antivirus 2000, boy that person must really put in a good use for that piece of software.
- A teacher came up to me and stated, she cannot work her online program. She said some options were missing, so that she cannot post her work online. Alas, she was working on a minimized windows about 1/3 the size of the monitor...
- One personnel came up to my supervisor and told her that I was sabotaging her work, by not letting her work, reason being she said, I locked the whole computer LAB thus preventing her from working, when my supervisor called me for an explanation, I told her simply that yesterday; there was a power outtage.
- Some people actually brought muffins, cappucino, and devilled eggs when working with computers, add a little touch and she can have a potluck by her own. Don't forget KFC : "Finger lickin' Good!"
- One teacher has actually got upset and called me, stating she cannot find the "My computer" icon to run some programs from cd, when I checked I was not surprised, I told her that in her desktop "My Computer" has been renamed "zajhgda;."
- Another personnel came up today and insist on sending an email, she needs to send an attachment to her supervisor, when I asked her what's her e-mail address, she simply said "My e-mail address is: hotmail.com."
- The alt + F4 pranks still works wonderfully *evil grins* This works perfect on some dudes that thinks he's the hot stuff and kept on jamming the LAB printers almost on a daily basis.
- Some people still thinks that a 486 laptop machine can miraculously access the internet through wireless hotspots.
- Some people actually confused what an apple or a mac is, they still cannot tell that normally mac has a one button mouse, and some people actually move an ergonomic top roller mouse around expecting to move the cursor, and they''ve complained, the mouse doesn't work.
- About 10 people on average daily comes up to me and stated, they've forgotten their user password.
- Linux is not some kind of Asian delicacy!!
- Apparently some people been trying to access my locked workstation using their hotmail e-mail user account.
- Some people actually asked whether I have an extra keyboard that I can spare to take home. Last time I checked the overpriced keyboard started at $2.99 at the local electronics store. Worth less than a gallon of gas.
- Some particular individuals tried to scan on my laser printer, and print on my flatbed scanner. Even trying to send some fax on a regular color printer, now where'd do that dial numbered buttons went AWOL?
- After four years on the site doing maintenance, some people still calls me the "Tech Guy."
- People are still lookin' for the lost treasure ever after: the Internet Explorer Address Bar!
Cheer up, it's another wonderful day @work...
Last Time I checked my msn, still online....
