Tech Humor

Found this today and had to share.

A woman called the Canon help desk with a problem with her printer. The tech
asked her if she was running it under "Windows." The woman responded,
"No, my desk is next to the door. But that is a good point. The man sitting
in the cubicle next to me is under a window and his printer is working
fine."

I love the strange correlations that people make about things they don't understand. It reminds me that technology could be considered a religion by the uninformed.

CDW had that in a book titled "Welcome to I/T" We got a couple of 'em free here.

They have a whole bunch of stuff like that in there. There was another where a lady swore that I/T could see her through her monitor. A technician knew about that and decided to have some fun. So when they finished a call she said "Oh by the way, that is an awesome sweater!"

At which point she screamed "I KNEW YOU COULD SEE ME!" and slammed down the phone.

And another where someone was complaining because their computer kept asking them if they wanted to accept a cookie. They're on a diet ya know.

Funny stuff! :-)

Everyone knows that printers get S.A.D.(seasonal affectation disorder) when not exposed to enough sunlight.

The proper way to mount a printer is by dropping it off the roof of your building into the sunniest parking lot available. It'll perform FAR past it's manufacturer's specs after that.

That works particularly well with lower end Lexmark Inkjet printers.

Works with those 30 dollar HP printers too.

You know, the ones that come free with the cheap HP's on the bottom shelf at walmart.

Like the one I'm using now.
