I'm going to wait 3 months and see how Steve's attitude changes towards tech support.  I'm almost certain he's going to get a wonderful meltdown after the 200th or so e-mail asking how to setup e-mail.

With his new anti depressants combined with alcohol this is very likely!

Steve's pedantic answers would be perfect for tech support as long as he thoroughly step by step explains how to do things.

I genuinely hope you get fired, and blackballed from all relevant industries.

yes and thank you for the sentiment, I blushed and said "aw shucks". My work takes me far from technology at times but I'm back in civilisation for a while. I now have alcohol and drugs too so my posts will inevitably decline over a few weeks until I am rude and almost incoherent and I disappear into the ether once again. Cheers.

First day on the job was pretty cool. I had a series of errors to troubleshoot in setting up my workstation (some caused by the non-free nVidia driver they had me install), but apart from that things went pretty smoothly.

Cool. A good first day sets the tone for the rest of the job. Maybe soon they will give you something real to do like building something. Or tearing something down. Make sure also that the whole thing isn't a massive practical joke by some gay TV thing like punk'd.

You're blaming me for having problems with a computer caused by non-free software? ???

Steve, if people ask you stupid questions, do tell them to type "urban rtfm" into google and press "I feel lucky."

Jesus.... I've never called tech support, and to solve one problem I had to physically remove my batter after turning off my laptop. Do people ever try things?

Yes sir, I found your problem. You had non free software installed. I formatted your hard drive but unfortunately was unable to install any replacement OS since all contain non free drivers. This bag contains the screws that were left over when I finished. No, my supervisor is away on lunch.
