    People ask me why I don't work in IT and I tell them it's because I don't have any important looking bits of paper saying I know what I'm doing.

    Yet I hear stories like yours and I'm all FFS!

    I do work in IT, and the biggest problem is the people who have the important looking bits of paper, because most of them don't know what they are doing either.

    It's the usual case that if the problem doesn't match exactly what the book says then they are lost. And half the time the book is wrong anyway.

    LMAo that is funny.

    I have a couple dumb moments with people i helped out lol.

    My buddy good freind of mine wanted to put all the parts to his first custom built pc together and when he did and pushed the power button it would go whack, of course he forgot to put the spaces between the board so the board was shorting out lol.

    Another thing this lady called me for support when i worked for dell as a rep for them asking me about her internet. She said that she couldtn get any connection so i went through all the steps and so forth and we got nowhere so finally i told her to call her isp and she said what is a isp? i said the internet company you pay to get the internet from, she said who would that be ? i go the company you called and ordered it through and she said i never ordered it lol. i was like wtf mate? wow that solved the problem lol.
