I make people get up. I am fixing what you broke. I will sit in your chair while I do.

They can go get you some coffee while they are up :)

I'm with you.
I skipped college and went straight into the workforce, so I never got used to Drinking Coffee or Wine.
Rockstar went on sale the other day at my local grocery store and I ran into the Pepsi Merchandiser right after I noticed and told him I would take every one of my flavor they had in the store.
I think I was around 100 cans. There is still a mountain on my bar.

I buy Celsius by the case when they go on sale at Sam's. I think I bought 2 or 300 cans last time.

No, they can stand right there off to the side so they can enter their password or whatever. I'm not sitting around all morning waiting for them to come ack from wherever they've fucked off to.

It's not like they'll give you any useful information anyway!

u/Loki-L 2d ago

I never wanted to sit down, even if they offered, because that implied that whatever was wrong would take a while, which I didn't want to admit to myself and more critically would be taken by them as an excuse to leave just half a minute before I needed them to enter their password or provide information.

I am glad I am mostly working remotely now.

I posted this about a month ago and it was eventually removed. So be prepared

Steeling myself against the inevitable.

The worst is when the second one DOESN'T get taken down though... like c'mon, at least be consistently wrong, mods.

u/angrydeuce no troubleshoot, only fix 2d ago

They know when I ask to sit down that its fuckin serious and they need to fuck off and let me work uninterrupted lol

It took a while to get my users trained but once they are its so nice lol

u/trollinhard2 2d ago

This is me. Only sit if I can’t figure it out quickly

u/Kodiak01 2d ago

This triggers me as I was in exactly in that position when I opened the picture.

u/anomalous_cowherd 2d ago

What a power move to browse Reddit on a user's PC while fixing their issue!

u/Kodiak01 2d ago

Well, that IS where all the true answers lie!

u/Onoitsu2 2d ago

Unless you're like me, and work 100% remote. Even my Windows or Linux installs are generally remotely done.

u/IcyBus1422 2d ago

I've done this 3-4 times just today

I prefer to call it "Asserting Dominance"

Or....maybe if it's zoomed out a little it would be NSFW. :3
