Suddenly I Am IT Support

Suddenly I Am IT Support
Oh, the HORROR of being "the tech person" in your family! You spent years mastering algorithms, building scalable systems, and architecting beautiful code... only to become the unpaid IT helpdesk for everyone who's ever met you. The slide of doom perfectly captures your descent into madness: It starts innocently with "can you fix my laptop?" (sure, whatever), slides into "I have an app idea" (oh no), and crashes straight into "can you hack Facebook?" because obviously knowing how to code means you're a Hollywood hacker who can break into Fort Knox with three keystrokes. Pro tip: Next time someone asks if you can hack Facebook, just tell them you only work with blockchain AI in the cloud. That usually shuts them up real quick. 🎯

The IT Guy Curse Is Real

The IT Guy Curse Is Real
You know you've made it in tech when your family treats you like a walking tech support hotline. Relatives casually asking "Aren't you a programmer?" gets a polite "Yes." But the moment someone needs their printer fixed or wants to break into Mark Zuckerberg's account, suddenly you're Usain Bolt at the Olympics. The best part? They think programming = hacking Facebook = fixing their virus-riddled laptop from 2009. Meanwhile, you're a backend developer who hasn't touched Windows in 5 years and wouldn't know how to "hack Facebook" if your life depended on it. But try explaining that at Thanksgiving dinner. Pro tip: Next time just tell them you only code in Haskell and watch their eyes glaze over. Problem solved.
