L-user: Why is the network down?
Windogg: It's not down. Why?
L-user: I can't login!!!
Windogg: I'm busy with reports now. Can you try calling the helpdesk.
L-user: NO, they'll just queue me up. I want results NOW!!!
Windogg: Ok ok..... Hmmm... are you typing in your username correctly?
L-user: Username? Uhhh.... Ok its in.
Windogg: Can you get in now?
L-user: Uhhh.... I guess your servers are back up again, huh?
Windogg: They were never down

10 Minutes Later:
L-user: Its me again. Why the $%&# doesn't this computer save files?
Windogg: Why do you mean?
L-user: I did a PowerPoint on Friday and now I only get half of it.
Windogg: Hmmmm.... where on the server did you save it?
L-user: On the shared drive.
Windogg: *** Does Search for File and Open It *** Is it 18 slides?
L-user: I only see 5 goddam slides. Why can't you get good computers?
Windogg: Are you sure you're opening the right file?
L-user: What am I stupid? Of course I am!!!!
Windogg: Please check the file. Are you sure its pointed to the shared drive?
L-user: Of course it is. Get over here right now!!!
Windogg: Is there anyone else there that can do it? I'm doing maintainance checks of the servers and its not a good time.
L-user: No it has to be you!!! You're responsible for these damn things so get over here now.
*** Hike over to luser's cube ***
*** Click on "Open" ***
Windogg: Hmmm.... it look like its pointed to C:\My Documents.....
*** Click on S: drive and open file that I checked in my office ***
Windogg: Is that it?
L-user: Uhhh... yea... that's it. Glad you fixed my computer.
Windogg: I didn't fix a thing.
L-user: You must've because it wasn't there before.
Windogg: Yea yea , I fixed it. *** RESIST TEMPTATION TO DROP 202F COFFEE ON OFFENDER'S LAP ***

There are way too many "ID10T"'s out there. I deal with them on a daily basis. Either myself or someone else I work with uses that "code" on a daily basis. I'll never forget the guy that said "last time I had a problem the technician said it was an ID10T issue."

I feel your pain but if it were not for these people I would not have a job.

They're usually the same people that are dickheads in grocery store lines too. Look at them as job security. It does ease the pain somewhat.

Thanks guys, you made me feel better. I guess I forgot the number one commandment of IT, "Thou Shall Not Take Thy Lord and Savior William Gate's name in vain. For If It Were Not For He, Your Worthless Ass Would Be Flipping Burgers At McDonalds"
