WHY DO I WORK WITH RETARDS

I'm guessing you've used the good ol' "I - D - 10 - T" problem line on unsuspecting coworkers?

What about the standby "PEBKAC" error? (Problem Exists Between Keyboard And Chair) I've heard other versions, but that's the one I was taught.

It sounds so much more genuine coming from a lady techie. People look at me like it's something really horrible. :rofl:

Too funny. I get people with those all of the time. The ol I-D-10-T. The best is when they ask, what do I have to do/buy. You tell them to write this down because they will be going to the store to buy it. Sometimes you get those that notice it and other times the people make it to the store before they read it and see it!!

Oh man, I never tried sending them to the store.... :biggrin: That might have actually worked on my boss. He would have showed the note to a salesperson to ask for help finding it. Next time, that's first priority on my list.

sadly, I'm not a technical support guy in my company. I just get the retarded questions

Man if that's the worse questions you get.......be happy. I have dealt with MUCH worse. Like the lady that had 2 phone lines, hooked her computer up to her house line, and used busy call forwarding to send calls to her computer line.

Or the lady who held the mouse upside down. Took me an hour to figure out why her clicks and scrolls were backwards.

But I'm not a tech guy. I'm not supposed to be answering these dipshit questions. I know how to run these programs my company uses, and I have to explain it to people in other countrys who can't figure out why I never answer them at 3 in the morning because they are in Hong Kong and it's really 3 in the afternoon for them.
