Tech support

I think I’ve determined the one and only reason I’m back on day shift. So I can be tech support for my supervisor. A good 90% of the calls I get are from him, asking how to do stuff.

I would be so much simpler if he’d just task out this stuff instead of me sitting in the office, getting frustrated by talking on the phone with him, getting more frustrated telling him how to do something, and even more when I tell him that something can’t be done, and he doesn’t believe me.

Just talking on the phone is enough to frustrate me. He doesn’t talk. A 10 second conversation seems to take forever, because he just doesn’t spit out what he wants to say, there’s a lot of Uhs and so forth, along with seconds and seconds of dead air. My God Man, just spit it out…I’ve got porn to surf, villainous plans to devise and put into place, I have no time to sit and listened to Uh, Um….well….I think…..uh….hey, um……I have a question………………………………uh………………………………………..I’m trying to……………..um……………….

He should be the one here in the office, answering the phone, and setting out the tasks. He wouldn’t have to know what he’s doing. He’d just have to make sure it got done. So simple. But that’s me, and trying to once again throw the monkey wrench of common sense into the mix.
