This is a genuine support email we received today during an ADSL circuit outage... obviously we picked it up after their ADSL was back on.

Slowly but surely losing the will to live whilst working in IT Support... I really, really am!

It would be fair to say for the most part I hate my job. Somehow, as the company lost staff, I have morphed from a coder into a free roaming role as a programmer come IT Support Monkey, with more focus on the Support Monkey elements. It now means I have to personally deal with some fucking stupid retards on a daily basis. People who should be sent back in time to be banished to pen and paper for the rest of their existences. In fact, some of these people probably can't even tie their own shoelaces yet they're allowed near a computer. Essentially people with more teeth than brain cells.
