    Imagining a bunch of guys in polos posted up on the corner. “Hey bro, I’ll install your printer, $10”.

          But will you install the printer…naked?

          clicks a remote, and the room gets dark with a blacklight disco ball, and Barry White playing

          I’ve taken the liberty of purchasing two snickers bars…one for you…one for daddy!

        How do printers get so fucked up?

        Relatively new in IT and think they must mess up more than anything else

          Couple of things that I’ve observed. It’s a combo of shit design and poor human behavior.

          -the ones in an office setting take an absolute fuck ton of abuse from people who can’t reload paper or replace an ink cartridge; I have seen punching and slamming on the regular -as a corollary to the above, no one fucking trains workers on copiers. The workers have to figure it out on their own. Violence is a natural response. -as a secondary corollary to the above, you can absolutely fuck with hated colleagues by removing their names from the user list simply by using the manual keypad (or changing the name from TooBeeSan to TooBeeNasty) -the ones in a home setting are persnicketty about color toner and are shit at Bluetooth connections (and thus also take a fuck ton of abuse)
