"I haven't considered the terrible situation this person has been put in, and I'm all out of ideas!"
- matt4077 10y agoLet's maybe not throw around terms like 'terrible situation' for someone being ask to fix a printer here or there. Even amongst the #firstwordproblems it just seems to lack the je-ne-sais-quoi of real tragedies.
- dkuntz2 10y agoThe terrible situation is the implicit "IT Guy" having to do actual sysadmin work and being interrupted with the "hey fix this printer". Also, being asked to fix a printer is pretty frustrating, because at best someone either is using past knowledge, or using google to diagnose, which is something pretty much any person could do.
