Few quick things:

1) Broken coffee pot? Not a help desk ticket. Plus, you stink up the office every day with your burnt popcorn. To the pit with you.
2) Your monitor doesn't have a signal? See, darling, it helps if the computer is on. There ya go.
3) You say Outlook keeps opening this one email over and over and over again and the only way to get it to stop is to ctrl+alt+del. I say take your notebook off the 'Enter' button and call me in the morning. Tomato, tomahto.

Ya know... I think I used to work with the person from #1.

OMG I just had person #1 nuke old coffee in a Styrofoam cup because he didn't know where the coffee was to make a new pot.

I walked him over to the drawer underneath the coffee maker, opened it and look coffee!! Ta daa!!

Damn I didn't know that was included in our job title.

Was this before, or after the cup melted?

there's nothing like day old coffee, and if there is i don't want to find out.

for me, the final response to all 3 of the above points is, "Here's your sign..."

Broken coffee pot. Reminds me that when I was working for a large women's store, I got a "Broken cd player" call.

I told them to take 25 bucks out of petty cash, go over to Wal-Mart, and buy a new one.

They insisted on a trouble ticket to get it fixed. I told them no. They wanted my supervisor.

I quit 5 minutes later. Because I hated the place anyways. That was just the last straw.

You have my condolences :)

My old office had a burnt-popcorn person! And also a smelly sardine sandwich person.

Nuking styrofoam? Is that not unwise?

[greeklady.livejournal.com]

They are end users. Enough said I believe.

I think no matter where I work, I'll get tickets for broken coffee pots as long as I'm in the IT field :(

We used to have Reeks of Death guy and I invariably got stuck in the elevator after him.

Bleh. I wish sometimes people would think for themselves. Or just think.
