So I was part of their monthly AA (Attitude Adjustment) Meetings at the bar. The help desk folk would always bemoan:<br /><br />1. Users who wouldn't check to see if their machine was plugged in, etc.<br />2. Users who wanted them to bypass their CAC because they forgot it.<br />3. Users who poured coffee into places it shouldn't go.<br />4. Users who won't go to training and then bitch about stuff they should have known.<br />5. Users who wouldn't back up critical files and then want the Help Desk to create them.<br /><br />The list is endless, but the beer was great! CAPT Kevin B.

I just clicked that linky thing."
