Yeah, my whole life has been this job, the only differences were the companies, but same. exact. job. I think they see me coming, a person who cares about doing a good job, so they just keep piling it on.

The reward for working hard? More work! "But I thought you LIKED working?"

Applied for a senior systems analyst job. They decided to change the position after my interview. The new job description was the same as the first job, word for word, with programming etc added, now titled programmer analyst with a drop in pay.

My rather ancient HP printer used to ask me that when one of the colour inks had run out did I want to continue in black and white, which was great. The other day I was printing a black and white document and it told me that the light cyan had run out, mid-print job. So yes, I can relate.

I had an Epson printer - it never worked I kept calling about it all they did was keep sending me ink, I tried to tell them If it won' print why the hell do you keep send me ink? NO response So my Epson printer is holding up my new printer That's All the M.F is good for.

My best was being paged over the tannoy system to go to the sales office for a printer problem.

One of my coworker called support cause her new Webcam produced a blueish picture. I (not the support) told her it may help to pull of the blueish plastic layer on the lens.

I had a customer come through self checkout at my store and she kept complaining she couldnt see the screen bc it was just so dim. Now I didnt play games with it came to sco. My job is to help you check yourself out. Not check you out myself. And we always had at least 2 regular check outs open. Anyways, after me trying to tell her what to press on the screen and her just repeating "Its just so dim I cant see anything!" I told her to either take off her sunglasses to see the screen properly or to go to another checkout.

One of my favorite support calls I took myself: A tech calls in about a remote site being down, he is not at the remote site, so he calls in another tech, who is also not at the remote site. After troubleshooting as much as I could of the connections between the remote site and them, they were finally able to conference in a third tech at the remote site, who found the network cable unplugged.

And they needed 11 mins for that?
