Got to work at 8, couldn't sign in. Still no joy. AIM was the only thing keeping me from shooting idiot users and it's been down all morning!
I had one person who couldn't figure out which drive the floppy went in. Trying to put a floppy in the ZIP drive is understandable, albeit kinda low on the computer intelligence scale. This guy couldn't even do that. First he tried to put the floppy in the CD-ROM drive. Then when I showed him the floppy drive, he pushed the button on it and asked why the tray wasn't opening. Making everything complete, he then tries to put the diskette in upside down. This wasn't some freshman either, this was a person in a couple higher-level university classes who couldn't figure out a floppy drive. Part of me has to wonder how this guy manages to make toast in the morning.
