Me when the IT guy I don’t like is on duty…

Yeah it’s not loading into email correctly!

Opens word, ignoring the raised eyebrow. Click to create new document. Open file to be attached. Manually highlight the entire document. Ignore the audible groan.

Click into the new document and attempt to right click paste into the header by “accident”. Then go back and left click to lose the highlighting on the 84 page report. Manually highlight everything again. Right click cut. Oops! Oh no that was the only copy the company has! We’ll go bankrupt! Ignore the IT guy lighting a cigarette.

Find the undo button in the toolbar menus. Oh good, those Microsoft guys think of everything. Manually highlight the entire 84 page report again. Check to see if IT guy has noticed 60 pages are just Lorem Ipsum. Ignore the flask of whisky.

Change to the new document and right click copy into the header. Manually delete the entire header. Bonus points for tapping the backspace key instead of holding it down. Right click copy into the body of the new document. Go to the “save as” icon and save it as FinalFinalReport_Legal_EMAILCopy in pictures. Ignore the line of cocaine the IT guy is doing.

Finally open the email client and attach it. Casually mention, “I’m just glad we can get this to Harry all properly formatted. He’s not very good with word docs on his Mac.” After the Email is sent pretend you got a message, and tell the IT guy that Harry needs him now.

If your IT guy doesn’t jump out the window then he’s now certified for Executive level PEBKAC problems. Give him the Shirley name tag and wig. Explain that the original IT person for them was named Shirley and the executives refuse to believe she quit.

Nonpolitical Twitter

!nonpoliticaltwitter@civilloquy.com

Create post

For screenshots of humorous, clean, nonpolitical social media posts. This primarily implies Twitter, but Facebook, Tumblr, Mastodon, Bluesky, Threads, etc. are allowed too. It should be primarily text-based though.

Rules
  1. Again, no politics.
  2. No Lemmy posts. You’re already on a Lemmy instance. There’s no need to screenshot it and post it here.
  3. No Reddit posts. That’s too similar to Lemmy.
  4. The joke must be text. Images can be included in the screenshot, but only as needed context.
  5. Use correct cropping. Don’t have a mile of whitespace or show extraneous UI, but don’t crop out the date or author.
  6. No doxxing. Again, don’t crop out the author’s name as he or she has chosen to share it, but definitely do not share extra information which may be personally identifiable or libelous.
  7. Link to the original post either in the body or in a comment.

We are obviously not affiliated with Twitter in any way.
