I hate being the IT person, and no I will not fix your printer.

I will fix your printer! Give me a sledge hammer!

The only real fix

I like being the it person. I would rather tackle a problem than leave someone else to struggle with it. It makes me hate software especially software that doesn't play nice with other software.

I like fixing stuff as long as it's not a printer or networking.

I don't like fixing printers but I can't leave it to my dad or the print will be destroyed.

I'm pretty decent with computers and I can't understand printers for the life of me

In one of my IT classes in high school we have a network (not connected to the internet) we we told to setup a printer on the network. My group managed to print to a printer on a different network.

See I like being the it person.

I tell anyone who asks that my consultant rates are $300/hour with a 4 hour minimum - and that I have a specialization in cloud architecture and ops stuff.

For some reason, people with printer/windows/Facebook/phone problems suddenly change the subject...
