  1. I try to be a good tech pony, and I think that's my problem. I actually try, which makes the abuse all the more demoralising.

      1. @flaxx What do you mean you can't set up scan to email/FTP on a printer not joined to the main network, hundreds of miles away, that you've never seen before, without a copy of its manual!

        1. @ceruleanspark Ugh, dealing with non-tech people thinking computers works by magic? :/

          1. @flaxx No I'm pretty sure they think it's me who works by magic. They couldn't care less about the computers

            1. @ceruleanspark Bleh, that's awful. Hope you don't have to deal with for too long. :/

                1. @ceruleanspark Sounds horrible. Are everyone you work for like that?

                  1. @flaxx My last boss tried to fire me for being depressed because my mother was having a mental breakdown, so...yes.

                    1. @ceruleanspark Yeah, as I memtioned, same thing happened to me. If I'd just said, oh, my legs fallen off, I wouldn't have had any trouble.

                      1. @pawnheart Well, in that specific case, I resolved the problem with explicit threats of violence.

                      2. @pawnheart followed up by resigning.

                        1. @ceruleanspark I was gonna do that... but I guess I bottled it (and bottled it up). Which was a crap idea, really. Just went gonzo in the end, and they escorted me out the building!

                          1. @pawnheart Oh so English. Bit your lip until blood comes out.

                    2. @ceruleanspark Oh man. Doesn't sound like a very pleasant job. :/

                      1. @flaxx Yeah. This place was supposed to be better. So much for that.

                        1. @ceruleanspark Sorry to hear that. :( !hug If I ever hire you, I promise I'll be nice!
