I'd totally take a job programming sex toys.

@CrankyOldDev I learned to type on an old Smith-Corona typewriter and I'm a heavy typist. I've always blamed it on learning to type on a fossil.

@owithg I'm a reconstructionist.

I'm Jewish.

@heyheni Thanks for the suggestion! I'll definitely look into running virtualization.

@No-one It's a bottle of mint scented hand lotion. I wouldn't recommend it be used as lube.

@nik123 By the time I realized my mistake, it was too late to edit.

@heyheni I'm still trying to decide if I want to set it up with Windows or Linux, but the plan is to use it as a learning tool. I'm not yet an expert in servers, so I figure I'll play with it until I know what I'm doing.

@g-m-f True, I just wish she'd pee when I take her out the first 5 times.

Ask him to write down his questions and schedule a time to answer them.

They also had at least 6 old computers they refused to throw away because they had important files on them. They didn't believe me when I told them that I could copy all the files and put them on a single external hard drive. I felt bad for them sometimes, but when they outright called me a liar I left.

@starless True. Their thought was that more expensive = best option. They weren't tech savvy people and refused to consider any advice. I had to dig the old computer out of the dumpster because they left the HD full of customer payment info in it.

AOL trial discs everywhere and Napster downloads that took forever.

Every single time.

@juniordev I offered to secure his mouth with tape.

That's when I tell them it's broken and cannot be fixed, then offer to buy it off them for parts.

@RhysOC It's a technical college. I'm older than most of the students by 15 years, so I'm the grumpy old man.

Well...

I always wear my headphones when I'm working. I'm one of those people that get distracted easily, and I'm very sensitive to noise.

I'd go nuts working with someone that doesn't know how to shut up.

I'm in a similar situation. It's required that we take a "computer fundamentals " course before we can take Networking and Security. Luckily, it's easy to make a good grade.

@ScribeOfGoD Right? I'm actually disappointed when I don't end up with a bunch of gay porn.

I have learned by hanging out in Linux forums and reading books. I'm sure you'd find some videos if you did a search @w0lfgrl

I got sick of Mac and Windows. Switched to Linux and wont go back.
