I thought this was funny.

So I get a call from a new ATTORNEY who started at my work. Real nice guy. He calls me and is freaking out, saying he has a virus on his computer. I told him that the symantec server would catch it before it did anything bad and it would send off an alert notifying me of the virus. He says its some software that keeps popping up, alerting him of emails. He says its called "Microsoft office Outlook"......

This is what I get to deal with every day.

I wear many hats.

Im the program manager in charge of the IT tech support for a goverment agency. (lets just say it handles those nuisance spam calls that you get at dinner or anytime during the day) Im in charge of about 19 guys, and if those idiots cant figure out a problem, they go to me.

I am also tech support for the lead attorneys who may go overseas (so i will get calls at 2 or 3 in the morning) ,or, those who dont want to d!ck around with the call center and need an issue fixed immediately

Then for my contracting company, believe it or not, my oh so friendly face can goes to potential clients and bids for their work. I know what some of you may be thinking.....

But most of the time im sitting here at home, on the forums, or sleeping in until I am needed. Its nice being able to work from home.

edit: basically I do about 2 hours of, true, dedicated, work, in a week. (quote from office space)

eastwest2300 · 02-22-2012, 01:55 PM

Not really, my call center filters those for the most part. I get the occasional "I dont see anythign on my screen....oh I should power it on first?" but its limited.
