What You Talkin' 'bout User?

They're easily startled and docile animals but due to their stubbornness, thickheadedness and penchant for being thicker then the bastard offspring of Katie Price and any given footballer. Is there such a creature? I confess I don't know but Great Maker it's entirely possible given the amount of footballers she has slept with. Is there actually any footballer she hasn't slept with? If the England team got their balls in the net as often as they did her we would of won the world cup.
I am of course talking about that strange breed of creatures called Users. Their ways are strange to us but we must be understanding to them as they suffer from a metal disease called "Donthaveabloodyclueitius". One of the symptoms is that they will say stuff that has little or no resemblance to what they actually want to say. Don't fear though because here are a few from my book of knowledge on users that I will use to enlighten you now to the meaning of some of the common things they ask for:

We need to give MegaTec a call to get this sorted

You need to give MegaTec a call because I bought some software/hardware from them before consulting IT and it doesn't work and I'd rather you looked like an idiot then me.

I don't know what happened

I poured my drink into it.

Would you like a drink. If you say yes I will look really put out by you and come back an hour later with what looks like mucky dishwater

Debs got a new computer?

Why haven’t I also got a new computer? I want a new computer NOW!

139

Thanks for showing me how to do something in Word

I will now ring your direct line everytime I have any problem with Word. I willl also tell all my collegues to do this. I don't care that it bypasses the call loging process and makes it appear you've spent ages doing nothing.

I copied you on an e-mail a while back…

By copying you on an e-mail, I actually expected you to completely handle it despite the e-mail being primarily addressed to someone other than you and nothing to do with IT.

414

It's doing it again.

That problem you sorted out five years ago has happened again, due to me messing with the computer, I expect you to remember it perfectly without me telling you what has happened.

235

You didn't/Did do something that I didn't like.

Someone else from IT didn't/did do something that I didn't like, but I couldn't remember their name so I'm blaming you. Also I've emailed all the directors telling them about your incompatance.

I'm sorry.

UPDATE: Since writing this I've been told that Katie Price apparantly does have a baby to a footballer Dwight York. Apparantly he has several physical and mental problems. While I am of course sorry that this is the case, I can't help feeling that this also proved the point I was making.
