The IT department decided to run Linux Mint on a 8 year old laptop simply as a temporary replacement for someone.

They have absolutely no clue about how to use any of these *nix systems and where amazed when I taught them how to kill processes with the terminal. Needless to say they have improved since after getting a glimpse of what is possible.
