help-circle


















  • The amount of people that don’t read instructions is ridiculous. They exist for a reason. I always read every manual for everything. Every car I’ve had, I read the manual front to back. My turtle’s new fancy water filter, read it front to back. Furniture, tech, anything, you name it. I guess I’M the outlier so I must be the weird one.

    I’ve literally had to write documentation at work for a single step procedure for help desk. It consisted of me screenshotting something, circling a button in red with a red arrow pointing to it because our help desk people are incompetent.


  • Dude, ages ago when I did tech support. A simple question like: “are the lights on your modem on?” was met with a yes. Then after an hour of troubleshooting you find out, in fact, no they weren’t on the entire time and the modem was unplugged. Like, you lied, you never even checked. The real questions then become: why was the modem unplugged? Who unplugged it? What reason does one have for unplugging their modem?
