No seriously, I have heard that one before
On my way to deliver a computer today I walked passed a couple of users. User 1: "Nice day to be taking that computer for a walk!" User 2 busts out laughing. I let out a sigh under my breath and a low chuckle to acknowledge that I had heard them. Luckily enough, on my way back from dropping the computer off I pass by user 1 again. "Looks like your computer ran away!" Let me tell you, instant classic...
There is one we hear at least once a week that I can't even bring myself to acknowledge anymore. "Hey Susie, you got a haircut!" Referencing the fact that I am sitting in Susie's chair fixing her computer. The comedy genius never ends around here. I am still waiting for that one comment that will actually make me laugh.
P.S. Porn user got another virus today. He claims he just opened a web browser and BAM! I of course continue removing the virus, pretending I don't know why he got it. I bet he thinks he got away with a close call today. I can't believe these people think they are hiding what they do on their computers.

Talking to Myself
Here comes that crazy person again...
So I have decided to start talking to myself out loud when I am walking around work. I figure if users see a "crazy" person coming their way they are less likely to ask me about their computer. I don't mind a quick question about a relevant topic, but when everyone tries to drag me to their office while I am on my way to an appointment it gets rather irritating.
I would also like to have a random conversation about something other than computers when I run into people. I am not sure what is worse at a party, either (A.) a computer technician answering every question that have saved up about their personal computer problems or (B.) a dentist having to actually stare into peoples' mouths at to see if they have a cavity. Both problems are caused by user error and neither one is an appropriate topic at a party.
I mean when I see an accountant, I don't ask them to do my taxes...
