Working With the IT Department 


Whenever I have a technology problem at work, I try to solve it myself. It’s not that I know a lot of about technology. In fact, the opposite is true. I’m pretty much a computer illiterate 1, but I still try. 


Why do I bother? The answer is the IT department in my company. Every time I consult one of the IT specialists, they make me feel like an idiot. But this time, I had no choice but to call in the experts. 


...


Leah: What seems to be the problem here? 


Steve: My computer is acting 2 up and I can’t get this file to open. 


Leah: Move. Let me take a look. Ha, of course your computer is acting up. I don’t know what you did to it, but it’s really screwed up. 


Steve: I’m not sure how I could have done that. 


Leah: Me neither. This is configured all wrong. And the reason you can’t open this file is because it’s encrypted. Did that occur to you? 


Steve: No, I guess I didn’t. 


Leah: I’ll fix everything, but try not to screw it up again. 


Steve: I’ll do my best.


...


See what I mean?
