Tech Support

When I look at how long it's been since I've put up a tweet, I realize that I've been at this job for way too long.

I want a nap right now. This day can't end soon enough.

Most days, I can do this job from my home with a remote connection.

This projector won't work with a new MacBook. No conceivable reason why it shouldn't. Looks like I'll need a bottle of Jack.

I was hired for computer support. Most of the day is spent with fussy printers. I lost a check or a balance somewhere.

Let's face it, it's Friday and you don't know what IT is doing. Answer: LAN parties and internet porn.

I was out sick yesterday. Now there's a mountain of work on my desk. This is not good for recuperation.

Also, Microsoft Word sucks wherever you use it.

Nope. I was wrong. Horribly not on track.

I've been horribly negligent at itrant.com. Hopefully, I'll get back on track.

It's Thursday night. Do you know where your IT staff us at?

It's not that IT doesn't like phones (we tend to love gadgety phones). We just don't like people. We prefer to communicate by email.

My iPhone likes to shut itself off. This is very annoying.

A printer has decided to print obscure error messages. Printer support says take it off the network... What's the point of having it?

Someone told me I had a case of the Mondays. I should have smacked him.

It's about now that I wonder when is too soon to call into work sick for Monday.

Remember: Judas Maccabeus is the reason for the season.

If a guest has a tech problem in our offices, it's my problem. "Bring your own damn cord" is rarely acceptable.

Sure, integrated webcams make it possible to preen at your desk, but at least the bathroom provides some privacy.

Sometimes I can't decide if I put whiskey in my coffee or just drink straight whiskey. I'm sure most people can't tell on Friday, anyway.
