The world is full of stupid people

How the @#&$ can people work in a “professional environment” and not have a clue how a computer works?! This baffles me. “Yes, I’m sorry, let me plug that cable back in for you… well what do you know?! It works again!” It’s simple fucking logic people: Computer works -> I unplug cable -> computer doesn’t work. Well I’m baffled as to the problem.

And since I’m “The Computer Guy” (excuse my over-use of quotation marks today) it stands to reason that since computers have keyboards, and typewriters have keyboards – I must know how to fix and what to do with typewriters. Brilliant. Seriously, I’m blinded by the stunning display of logic and intelligence in this place. This is why I need a new job – I want to be adding OEM drivers to a RIS image or building an Exchange server, or even scripting some cute little tool that will automatically delete old files for me… not plugging in cables that some dolt figured couldn’t possibly be important, or taking a typewriter out to the garbage.

ION (In Other News – I’ve taken to shortening everything like everyone does… but if someone ever says “G-2-G” to me again, I’ll bludgeon them to death with their own arm)

“The Transporter” is one of the worst movies of all time. It started out with potential and promise, then just took a complete nose-dive. You could actually see how they started to run out of money near the end of the movie.

That’s all for now… I have to go open someone’s CD drive for them… that’s understandable – they’re relatively new and complex devices – you have to have an IQ over 4 to work one.
