This girl THOUGHT when she was buying a computer it would have Windows.
It did NOT have Windows. It has UBUNTU LINUX!
This caused her to drop out of school!
When you buy a computer, MAKE SURE it uses Microsoft Windows!

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

Just got fired from my first IT job out of college after working it a month, they knew I had no experience and promised to train me. But no training was given, and they fired me without warning for struggling too much with troubleshooting they said.
Anyone else have similar experience in IT?
>>59391978
guess pajeet lied on his CV again and got caught
How did you fuck up this badly?
In my experience, people don't get fired for being incompetent (unless it's absolutely pants on head retarded). They get fired for being faggots and get told it's because of poor performance.
