have to agree with the lot of u. Only I really do know how to fix photocopiers. did it for two years,
If it's got buttons or a display on it ..... it MUST be an IT problem.....d*mm coffee machine......Buttons and Display.......get yourselves a kettle :mad: :mad: :mad:
and they even don't change the paper - when it's off, it's off ... like at my first job ... and because I was the IT guy I had to carry the equipment around when moving(showing them my tongue and more behind their backs).Quote:

And nobody seems to know how to replace the bloody toner carts in the laser printer. Some people just keep printing until the paper comes out white, THEN they ask about replacing the toner. Duh!
Higg, I don't mind moving PC hardware around. They are to call IS so we can make sure it is installed correctly, (surge protector, no phone line in the nic, etc). I tell my (l)users that if they break something its there butt, if I break something I'll take care of it.
What realy frosts my cookies is now us IS people must fill out a sheet of paper everytime we visit a machine, informing the user of exactly what we did and how this may or may not effect ther use of the machine. These aren't there computers! They are the companys. I am incharge of maintaining these machines, I don't need the extra hastle! I'm just going to be honist from now on!
I will put "removed dirty e-mail jokes from your desktop" and "deleted all cookies from TeenLust.com" etc. that will fix there boat!
Go fer it dude!!!! I once worked for a guy that made me write down when I left the office, when I arrived at the client's, when I actually sat down to do the work, when I wiped my.....oh, sorry...not that one heh heh, it just seemed like it...you get the point. I agree someone is going paperwork nutz! If they won't back off on the requirement, then give them exactly what they ask for! :DQuote:

Also make sure you CC their supervisor. :D :D :D :D :D :D :D If not for the added enjoyment, then just for the added paper load in his inbox.

The very same thing happened to me yesterday afternoon while on my break. Minding my own business someone comes up to me and asks if I can fix the clock in the staff room, because it was 20 minutes slow....
Really, I thought my pants would never dry!
I replied - Since when has the IT dept been responsible for replacing batteries in wallclocks???
Just because we have toolbox, people assume that we can fix anything.
i had one D.H. customer say: "if you were any sort of tv engineer you'd have spotted the TV card was faulty...." :confused:
one guy i know had one of these hand held things, to record everything:
u'know the sort of thing......
10:02 to 10:05 take a leak
yeah, no kidding :o
I hate it when someone has the nerve to bother me while i am trying to get frosted cookies.Quote:

Two things really piss me off.
1. the comment "I didnt get a windows 98 CD with my computer" (and we have them sign papers saying they got the copy of win98)
2. Customer calls in an out of house call, something simple...like set up internet. When you get there they say "while you're here...." and have you do 30 other things that you're not prepaired for.
The vague "nothing works" comment from employees who consider this a standard for reporting computer problems.
I work in a hospital. This type of situation CANNOT be allowed to wait.
So I rush on over thinking the entire network is regurgitating only to find out that they forgot to log into the system. :mad:
That and when someone comes up with an add and say, "the one I am thinking about looks just like this is it a good one?" like each computer that comes out is in a different case.Quote:

"I didn't change anything. It just...stopped working."
Then they tell you, the next day, that they remember changing something...AAAAH!
