Worst is "can't you just change this site?"

>they go to some shitty government site that hasn't been updated since 2001
>it fucks up
>"can't you just change this site?"

Every single time this happens I stop them and ask. Okay, let's think for a moment. Let's just say I could change any site I want. Do you know how fucked the entire internet would be. So no, I cannot just change sites.

I got the same calls from the same people weeks later. Answer is always the same. I always hear the same glitter in their eyes over the phone because they legitimately think I will be able to change the site this time.

Another problem I had with people when I was doing IT is when they are using the IT company to not do their job. I got a call from a client who couldn't get her story straight on where the modem was, because she plain just didn't want to do her job that day. Way that you can know they're doing this outside of the lies not lining up are when they're super excited to tell you how their internet service isn't working.

>we need to reset the modem.
>Oh is that in the maintenance closet I'm not going in there
>Look we need to it will only take a minute.
>"I don't know where the maintenance closet is"
>The one that you said you're not going into, you don't know where it is.
>Okay okay I'm in there now but uh it's high up.
>You mean the modem is mounted high up?
>Yes
>Get a ladder
>What's a ladder? Oh okay
>okay I'm up here now and oh I can't find the modem now
>15 minutes later they "find" the modem again
>Unplug the power
>WHICH ONE IS THAT HAHA?
>Well if that's the case just unplug all of them
>"I don't know where the modem is now"
What the fuck?

I got a dumb bitch fired over something like this because she hung up, turned around and called her boss and said we were very rude. Fought them tooth and nail on that one and they found out she wasted half a day doing nothing and fired her. This is why IT is so shit, because you can just lie and say it isn't working while you're throwing the modem down the stairs

Streamline it, get a stable router, get same office version, make an FAQ website, do some awareness and self-help tips.

End of the month you have a self driving environment
>>
>>61026727
This. You fucking nigger could have just told, "Yeah, I have one but is deactivated because I was spending too much time on it. Now that I've a job, I will reactivate it. Can you give me your profile? I will add you soon."
What a waste of a good chance to cum all over Stacy. You will die a virgin desu senpai.

Ew.

When will you people realize that IT and Webdev and software dev jobs are all perceived as "computer monkey" jobs, you're basically a computer eunich and they don't see you like a real person, just some nerd that knows how all the computers work, COME NERD, MY COMPUTER DONT WORK.
>>
>>61027004
Good for you
>>
>one stacy showed up
>she asked me if i had facebook

you could've turned this into a small talk instead of showing your powerlevel
>>
>>61026543
WTF anon?
You don't say Facebook is a time waster. Normies love it. You say something like "I used to but never really got into it and haven't used it in X years"

As for Instagram: Oh that site where hot girls post their pics? Not a surprise you have one.

Like really, anon, how fucking autistic are you
>>
>>61030166
Could you go back to your self-loathing echo chamber please?
>>
>>61030166

>>61030457
I don't browse that board.

>>61030513
Are you the same user as the first one I quoted?
>>
>>61030336
That's not flirting, that's just creepy as all-fuck unless you say it to someone with whom you've had lengthy interactions already and are already fairly certain wants to bang you, because they have made it clear implicitly
>>
>>61031220
If you look like you do, it's creepy.
If you're attractive that is totally passable
>>
>>61026543
you are getting paid for this

now fuck off wagecuck
>>
OP is the only IT guy in the entire company?
Play your cards right and you can literally become God.
>>
>>61026586
Aaaaahahaha

>>61026727
>>61030166
This

OP, create a damn FB account. If you have autism, just do it in incognito mode from a library computer.

You don't have to ever log in, read or post, you can just keep it around like you would a phone number.
>>
>>61031281
Being attractive isn't enough. The person to whom you're saying it must be attracted to you, specifically. But then, anything you say is passable, as indicated by e.g. anon going so far as to pretend to like Big Bang Theory just to get some poon.

People ignore all faults in those they wanna dick or get dicked by. That doesn't make the line any less autismal.
