Dear Mother, Family, and Neighbors,

Despite what my Mom may have told you. I am not your fucking tech support. I do not care if you got 2234 viruses from clicking yes on an ad that was too good to be true. (The current PC I got suckered into fixing has 148 viruses and we're still running Anti Virus). I do not give a flying ratfuck that you cannot send email. It saves me from having to delete whatever ridiculous piece of fluff you oh so cleverly forward to me. I am not your goddamn tech support because when I first got a computer I took the time to learn how things work and how to fix them while you can't even be bothered to READ THE FUCKING MANUAL. Bonehead Uncle, I will not fucking fix your Mac. I told you this when you got it. You get to send it into apple for that shit. I will not use my magic jesus powers to resurrect your pictures of fuzzy animals from the hard drive that is so dinged it looks like the surface of the fucking moon. But most importantly, I am not your fucking tech support because none of you fuckers are paying me. Yes, I know. Serviced Rendered = CASH MONEY. Get used to it.


No love at all right now, quit fucking bugging me.
Dancien

Have you seen the "manuals" that came with new computers lately?

BTW, would you mind reinstalling windows in that machine? it is not working... I'll buy you beer.

I am beginning to believe nobody over 50 should have a computer unless they owned one before they were 40.

People should have to take a test before they are allowed to own a computer.

I believe this is an opportunity to learn to enforce personal boundaries.

That is my pet peeve.

People call me and think I can think hard and fix the computer over the phone.

You buy a piece of shit pre built from Best Buy and it don't work.
Take it back to best buy!

Don't ask me to fix your MAC. Take it back to "Genius" who sold it you.

I am sure his Mother will be glad to pay him, as soon as he pays her for all of the home cooked meals and the other hard work she has done for him.

Motherfuck....I have a basement? And yeah, she's lived with me for awhile. After her heart attack she lives her rent/bill free so she can catch up on all her medical bills.

Sans forced me to work on her computer today.

It was kind of like this:

No, I'm kidding. I love to work on her computer for her because she's always very happy and grateful when I fix whatever the problem was. :p

I have one Uncle who learned his lesson. The racist homophobic one. He kept going on about black people and gays while I was on the phone with him while working on his computer.

So I filled his hard drives with black gay porn.

He goes to geek squad now.

The internet, broadband, and google safewords off on Image search. Also, I have a bunch of old storage disks from when I ran a BBS. Back then porn was much like e-currency.

Yea my husband is the computer bitch in our family. He builds and fixes all the PC's in our immediate family. He said what he hates most, is even you do the simplest of tasks for someone, from that point on your attached to that computer and they come to you every time it fucks up.

I'm just thankful to have a computer guy in my house because I go into withdrawal anytime the computer shits out.

Yeah, it makes more sense to marry the tech support guy than to pay him for doing all that shit for you. ;)

She may not pay me for my work, but man, the fringe benefits are out of this world. :)

Obviously she did not know that, and it is not an uncommon thought when it comes to mom's.
I think that is great he does says a lot about a person.

This is true.

We have one friend who calls all the time because we did this and it's like we saved her computers life so now we're perpetually responsible for it.

I always pretend I know nothing when someone asks for help. Of course it helps that I know nothing, but still.

Morgaine, thank you for your understanding. Apparently when I wrote "she has done", it was not read as a past tense as it should have been. Mother's raise their children from day one, give them the world, kiss their booboo's and love them without reservation. At times in some peoples lives there comes a point where that is reversed because of circumstances. It is quite obvious that his Mother is very proud of him, or she wouldn't sing his praises to the world. I don't even know if she raised him. I also know there are some pretty bad Mothers out there.

Actually my first post was meant in jest. My dry sense of humor obviously not showing. Many younger people assume that older ones know nothing. When someone implies that, I usually just smile, knowing their time will come. My second post was in defense of his Mother. I have always felt that all relationships are give and take. I do belive if he is tired of doing this, he should just say *no*, or get a business license and start charging and quote his price when someone asks for help in the future. That would certainly nip his problem in the bud instead of being upset with his Mother because she is trying to be helpful. Helping others is a gift in disquise to ourselves.
