However, since I started my job here, they have given me a laptop, and one of the guys in IT is a good friend of mine. This has made me extremely lazy. To the point where I don’t call support, I call him directly with “My computer sucks, come fix it.” :rofl

I have a bunch of girls like that lol.

> HEHE… I love being that go to guy for hotties with computer issues! I remember a girl I helped in GE. she sounded hot on the phone, and was fun to deal with. We chatted a bunch of times after the issue resolved, so I figured I should go meet her. I sent a “spy” out to go see if she was a cow first, and got the call back “its a go man!”… so I grabbed the next ticket that was in her building and pretended to walk by and say, ohh I recognized your name, I am Mike I helped you with… blah… It was cool for a while, then she began stalking me, alot… our office was out in a building way in the back of the Schenectady GE lot, and she would come over ALL the time! Ohh and she was like 10 years older than me! LOL

- f’in 1 man.

I have 3 girls who are pretty damn attractive who dont’ call the helpdesk (cause they seem to always get this one helpdesk ‘tech’ who is not all there).

I agree about the people who don’t know jack being easier to help.
