Every damn time.

I cannot be the only one who thought the second sentence of the post was going too say, 'been a Swiftie for 8+ years, we're good'

And you cannot get promoted cause you are irreplaceable so other useless people get promoted, so you can stay at your position and handle the things they cannot do! Life sucks right?

Ah, this was once a bigger issue than it is now. Back in the 90s I had a Lexmark printer that had a single cartridge containing all the colors, only it didn't also contain black. It made black by combining yellow, cyan and magenta. If you wanted gray, you in fact did need yellow ink.

I hate it when my family uses my profile!!! I get recommendations for staff i will never watch!!!

Those same users bring their "broken" cars to my workplace

I work in IT and this one made me laugh out loud in my cubicle farm surrounded by broken laptops

Well, I would charge this "repair" just for their ignorance

Do people really fall for this? 😫

Except where the readme is by engineers for engineers...they assume Phd level computer skills when a simple example of common usage would be far more helpful. I have been IT support for over 25 years, and I still see "man pages" where the author should not be allowed near a keyboard.

I had a doctor go "your problem sounds familiar but I am going to make sure because I don't want to make a mistake" and he looked up the issue in this huge database. Sometimes you do get a doctor who understands looking the problem up, which is refreshing.

Squary

We're going to plug in a plug right here, and another right here becuase everyone needs a buddy

I've done this. It works sometimes.

Brilliant!

Yes! We just finished 1909, now we get to start over with 20H2 Yay...

meanwhile, in a prison in Spain.......RIP John McAfee

Damn toolbars are rats

Fookin UAC. Admins everywhere thinking yeah great let’s enable this to stop people downloading and don’t stuff. Until they get calls every five minutes asking for the password and eventually they disable it again for everyone

A customer did this recently. He came with a really short deadline (less than 3 weeks). I delivered on tuesday (did the job in 1 week) saying that he has to tell us when they plan to test it, to be sure we will be available to deliver on the next test environment. Tests are really quick to do. 5 days later I don't have any news. 9 days until it has to be in production. Maybe we will have some fix to do, no idea. Pretty sure he will come back like "deliver the next step now". Can't wait to reply "That's not how it works, honey!" 😂

In my office we sacrifice an intern.

404 error not found

In the modern era, it only goes together one possible way! It's not like we have LPT and 25-pin serial ports on the same PC anymore (both DB25)... Or RS-232 and CGA graphics (both DB9). Or, god-forbid, RGB graphics and joystick ports (macintosh, both DB15).

*Shhhhhhhhh* Don't let them notice you know!

Dang that wireless mouse usb must’ve had a lot of files

Today I Learned that CTRL+Shift+escape opens task manager

Hey, I take exception to this. Perfect example: I got tired of replacing the battery in my garage door opener (the pinpad on the outside) so I rummaged through my pile of adapters till I found a 9v one, drilled a small hole and wired it up, no more replacing the battery!

Been there, done that.

Maybe colourblindness?

Boomers invented video conferencing. You are just riding on the shirttails of their fame.

Remember we had an office with a raised floor like this. All the cables go under the floor and you can install floorports wherever they are needed. They used to use the same suction cup device (bottom left) to lift them Sometimes wish I had a floor like that at home.

*How I see other people in my school asking how to get capital letters* (Ok, maybe a tiny bit exaggerated, but only a tiny bit) xD

I appreciate solutions, BUT LET ME RAGE FIRST. :D

Hmm. I have been on the other side of this on multiple occasions, where I did all the recommended troubleshooting with no result, contacted IT with a full report of what's wrong, what I tried and what the results were and IT insisted I do it all again.

None are hack-proof, but some are better than others

OMFG, no you are not alone! At first I figured it was just still searching and I was removing the s just as it finished searching, but extensive testing has proven that it’s really just messing with us. >.<

I have a degree in science right? Yup! And you called me to find a vaccine right? Yup! And when i tell you the vaccine is ready and safe you should do it right? That makes sense to me! Then do what i told you to! No!🙄

That's how i solve the problem in my phone too

It's NAT the end of the world as we know it. ;-)
