"I don't really know what I'm doing."

From an end-user douchebag n00b, fine. But this dude is in charge of - amongst other things - his company's name servers. Hoo boy.

And I bet he gets paid more than I do!

Geez, he doesn't know The Code, does he?

You can think it, but don't eeeeeeever say it.

I mean, everybody here has said it to him or herself at SOME point, but we're techs because we can bullshit our way past it. Sheez!!!

Only thing worse is hearing people say they're computer iliterate for their explanation for why they can't do what you tell them to do instead of wandering off and doing what they think will fix their issue while you're trying to troubleshoot.

Ask him if he'd like to hire someone who does know what they're doing when it comes to the computer systems keeping his company solvent.

Why can't I get a job where I get paid lots of money not to know what I'm doing?

Because you don't take your boss his coffee wearing nothing but glitter and kneepads?

Hey, c'mon now, mine is an NT shop and I know zone files.

(We'll ignore that I used to be a Linux guy)
