The IT Side of Things

I don't think the general population of people actually know how to use a computer. I can say this because I am a IT Technician working a pretty sweet gig. Really, I love my job, I get paid to play with computers all day long. I deal with computers in the city I live in and in another two cities that are a flight away. I'm just in the background doing my thing and everyone respects me because well, if you make me mad you know your computer will suddenly start having problems ha ha. The only problem I have with my job is the 'user' problem. I don't usually complain about the incompetence of the people in this company but today I will. The last phone call I had was from one of the other cities so I had to instruct them what to do. I knew it would be a loss cause when I asked him to restart his computer and he didn't even know how. After finally explaining to him how to restart it I decided to do a remote connection to his PC once it booted back up. That is only today's example, you would not believe the calls I get and I honestly have to ask them if there computers plugged in and guess what? Its not! Last week I replaced a persons monitor and then the next day they called me saying the new one wasn't working so I went over there and guess what? It wasn't turned on! The list can go on and on but you get my point. People suck at computers and some of them shouldn't even be aloud to own one let alone work on one. That's my daily bitch I feel much better now :)
