“We don’t support that”

by Rob Friesel

This Salon.com Technology article goes well beyond “It’s funny because it’s true”… thank fucking god my team isn’t like that…

Mr. Davis is threatening to shoot his computer. What this will accomplish is unclear, but he seems convinced it will make him feel better. Looking over his call log, I’m sympathetic. A run of givers have sent him six monitors in the last two and a half weeks, none of which has solved his problem. It seems safe to say that whatever his problem is, it’s not with the monitor. Still, that hasn’t stopped another giver from offering to send him a seventh one earlier today. When he refused that present he was promptly punted. He’s been punted a total of four times today. Now he’s had it. He just wants me to bear audio witness as he guns down his system.
