And he was right....doing this tech support for 2 or more years will burn your patience...FAST

IT on the other hand....is a lot more fun

When I worked IT, I had fun, met great people, and made bank... I just got my W2 forms back today, and as a help desk worker, I'm living below the poverty line :noes:

I've been called from people demanding that I give them back their hdd space.

Appears that some ahole in WD was telling their customers that when you format a hdd Adaptec is taking the space that they are missing

thus I will hate WD for the rest of my life. h:

"my mouse"
"... ... your... mouse... ma`am?"
"yea, I need it reinstalled"
"oh that's diffrent than a move"
"no, I need it reinstalled in a diffrent location"
"i'm not sure I follow what your asking for"
