There should be a national holiday for the unpaid IT support from family members
😞

AGREED or at least a paid vaca to Aruba

Oh lordy. I once had to diagnose AND walk-through my 80yo mom on how to get the battery out of the laptop after a thunderstorm took out the electricity and the stupid battery refused to charge after it.

Oy. Vey. And all other deities.

If that doesn't drive you to drink and use drugs, I don't know what will.

Want my BILs number for next time? You already have my sister's info, it's her husband

@Kurtroedeger @PurpleDragon @SECRET_ASIAN_MAN
😂😂😂

I might. If he spoke Finnish..

I did tech support over the phone fresh out of high school.

The first time one of my superiors told me that yes, I did have to walk somebody's grandpa through resetting their CMOS using the jumpers... in a slimline desktop where you have to take everything else out first... I wanted to die a little bit.

Grandpa and I survived the ordeal, but neither of us enjoyed it.

Ugh I feel for both of you.
Sat on the phone with her for an hour because her printer wouldn't make copies anymore. Went thru the whole IT list before I realized she was putting the original in UPSIDEDOWN 😱
She'll be 90 in Dec

@PurpleDragon @Fiikus_goddess @Kurtroedeger @SECRET_ASIAN_MAN

Oh boyyyyy hahahaha

That's one thing I learned really early: check the silly stuff first, because you'll be mad you didn't when that's the culprit.

@PurpleDragon @evistre @Kurtroedeger @SECRET_ASIAN_MAN

Two words.
Remote control. Makes a heckuva lot of a difference.

@Fiikus_goddess @evistre @Kurtroedeger @SECRET_ASIAN_MAN

Wouldn't have solved the printer issue tho. And she's paranoid delusional, she'd think the ENTIRE Internet was controlling her machine 😆
