A Stunning Turn of Events
Well, you know the drill by now, so without further ado....
"How do I change colors in PowerPoint? I change one and everything else changes."
Solution: Ascretained user does not have appropriate grip of the English language. Was in fact applying design templates to slides. Showed user how to select slides to be changed and how to apply new templates. Resisted urge to hand user coloring book and crayons.
This next one is NOT an IT related issue, and that's exactly why it's in here.....
Scene: New whiteboard installed by my desk. Apparently subject board was pulled from closet somewhere as it still had "Welcome to the Holiday Party" on it. Big boss comes by to see new board.
"That's not terribly current. Clean it".
Solution: Determined at currently hourly this will cost employer approx. $27 of my time. Further determined janitors make less than this. Considered myself highest paid janitor in building. Proceed to clean year old marker off board with very stinky alcohol-based cleaner. Began seeing leprechauns from fumes, passed out. Awoke, but still see leprechauns. Determined being highest paid janitor still makes me a janitor.
Fun fact of the day:
Unplugging a user's computer results in excellent help desk calls, as long as that help desk is not me.
