I actually find him far less of an issue than the lazy asshole who sits right behind me. Yesterday the idiot in question was whining about how getting a request to issue an IP address for the same user twice should result in a second work order, because the MAC address provided by the user the first time wasn't correct. Issuing an IP address takes maybe 3 minutes, paperwork and all.

The same guy said to a co-worker, last week, not to do so many work orders while we were working on Maple Leaf Gardens because it would make him look bad. This co-worker and I were only in the shop a couple of hours a day, at most,with the rest of the time being spent in The Gardens. I told him to do more work and he wouldn't make himself look bad.

I worked 4 days that week and did 21 work orders. The co-worker was in for 3 days and did 14 work orders. The douche who was supposed to be picking up the slack while the two of us were stuck in the new athletics centre was in for 3 days (took a 'sick' day when he was the only available tech for the rest of the campus) did 12 work orders.

Maybe this should be a 'what pisses me off..." thread?

It's you damn Canadians, at least on the conference calls I've been on lately. I just listened to several minutes of up-talked sentences from our Canadian folks, with nary a question in sight.

I always used to get it when I called California, for tech support. Then again I was occasionally told that there wasn't anyone to take my call, because they were on the beach for their morning run
