How I Fix Stuff Working In IT

How I Fix Stuff Working In IT
After 15 years in tech, I can confirm this pie chart is scientifically accurate. The blue slice representing "restart whatever isn't working" is basically our industry's version of percussive maintenance. That "IT placebo effect" is real too—walk into a room and suddenly the printer that's been jamming for 3 days works flawlessly. Users look at you like you're a wizard, but really you just interrupted whatever cosmic force was enjoying their suffering. And let's be honest, that quick Google search is just us typing "why the hell is [software] doing [weird thing]" and hoping someone on Stack Overflow had the same existential crisis.

The Power Button Pilgrimage

The Power Button Pilgrimage
Person: "Why are IT guys such d***s?" IT guy: "Last week I drove two hours to push the power button on a server that three separate people assured me was already on." And that, friends, is why we drink coffee like it's oxygen and trust no one. Not even the power indicator light.

Revenge Of The IT Guy: A Key Removal

Revenge Of The IT Guy: A Key Removal
Revenge is a dish best served with administrative privileges. The IT guy didn't need to throw a punch - just removed the "i" key from the keyboard. Perfect digital karma! Next time someone messes with IT support, remember they control the literal keys to your productivity. And yes, technically that IS a white "i" that's missing, proving IT folks are both punny and petty in the most brilliant way possible.

How Jurassic Park Could Have Ended

How Jurassic Park Could Have Ended
Alternate Jurassic Park ending: Dennis Nedry realizes he's the only IT guy maintaining a critical system with actual dinosaurs and demands fair compensation. Hammond reluctantly agrees instead of lowballing him. Movie ends peacefully, no one gets eaten, and the park probably has working door locks. The real horror was the salary negotiation all along.

The Grim Reaper Of Technical Support

The Grim Reaper Of Technical Support
THE SKULL AND GEAR OF DOOM! 💀⚙️ That IT Support vest is basically advertising "I'm the grim reaper of your technical nightmares!" When the guy with THIS logo shows up, your computer isn't just broken—it's having an existential crisis! Your data isn't just corrupted—it's been dragged to the digital underworld! Your network isn't just down—it's being tortured in techno-hell! And yet we still expect these harbingers of digital doom to fix everything with a smile while we ask "have you tried turning it off and on again?" for the billionth time. The skull doesn't represent what they'll do to your computer—it represents their slowly dying soul after explaining to Karen from accounting that no, her coffee cup holder isn't broken, THAT'S A DVD DRIVE!

The IT Hero We Deserve, Not The One We Need

The IT Hero We Deserve, Not The One We Need
That heroic moment when IT finally arrives after you've sent 17 increasingly desperate tickets. They stride in like Zapp Brannigan from Futurama, full of unearned confidence and zero urgency. "I got your distress call and came as quickly as I wanted to" perfectly captures that special blend of savior complex and complete indifference that defines corporate IT support. Meanwhile, you've been frantically googling solutions for three hours and have already tried turning it off and on again... twice.

Solves Everything

Solves Everything
You: *writes detailed 500-line bug report with stack trace, environment variables, and reproduction steps* IT Support: "Have you tried turning it off and on again?" The universal IT solution that somehow fixes 90% of problems despite all logic and reason. It's the digital equivalent of blowing on a Nintendo cartridge—nobody knows why it works, but it does. The worst part? When they're actually right and your meticulously documented issue vanishes after a reboot.

Smoking Power Supply

Smoking Power Supply
When your power supply is literally smoking but tech support insists on running through their entire script before admitting the obvious. This is the perfect illustration of the eternal battle between users who can see their computer is on fire and tech support who needs you to turn it off and on again first. Because clearly, the NOSMOKE module being incompatible with your power supply isn't as obvious as the actual smoke pouring out of your case. And the final punchline? Microsoft can't help because NOSMOKE isn't compatible with your power supply. You don't say! Next they'll tell you that water isn't compatible with electrocution.

The Eternal Wait For Medium Priority

The Eternal Wait For Medium Priority
That skeleton isn't just decorative—it's the developer who filed the ticket three months ago. Medium priority means "we'll get to it after the heat death of the universe." Meanwhile, the poor soul has been waiting so long they've decomposed to bones, still dutifully checking for updates every morning. The headphones are a nice touch... gotta stay on Spotify while you wait for eternity. Welcome to enterprise IT, where your urgent bug fix competes with "change the button color" tickets that somehow got marked as P1.

The First Commandment Of IT

The First Commandment Of IT
Homer Simpson ripping out a "Free IT Advice" sign to reveal the sacred commandment of tech: "IF IT WORKS, DON'T TOUCH IT." This isn't just advice—it's the unspoken religion of every production environment. That mystical code that ran fine for 7 years? Written by a dev who left the company in 2015? Deployed on a server no one remembers the password to? Yeah, nobody's volunteering to "refactor" that bad boy. We just light candles and pray it continues working until retirement.

It's Always DNS

It's Always DNS
The eternal IT support battle in five acts: Angry admin: "THIS IS NOT A DNS ISSUE!" Smug dev: "I CAN PING 8.8.8.8" (Google's DNS server, the universal "is my internet working?" test) Admin, veins popping: "THEN YOUR INTERNET WORKS!" Dev, confused: "I CAN'T PING GOOGLE.COM" Admin, having a stroke: "STOP BLAMING DNS FOR YOUR PROBLEMS" Narrator: It was, in fact, a DNS issue.

How Can One Hold All This Power?

How Can One Hold All This Power?
Finally collected all the Infinity Stones of IT support. With these power buttons in my possession, I can now solve 90% of all tech problems by simply telling people to "turn it off and on again" while feeling smugly superior. The other 10% require the legendary artifact known as "actually reading the error message."
