So mancher Mail würden ja ein paar Absätze oder zumindest Zeichensetzung schon sehr gut tun.
-
Ah, da ist sie ja - die tägliche ChatGPT-generierte Support-Mail! \o/

Auch das ist #talesfromtechsupport:
Vor dem ersten Kaffee schon die Contenance zu wahren.

Heute ist aber auch wieder ein #talesFromTechSupport-Tag.
Das glaubt einem manchmal wirklich keiner.

The biggest issue I have when I do digital support for anyone is that they DON'T READ their messages - they blindly bumble through their emails clicking all the links. #groan #talesfromtechsupport

Da dachte ih kurz "Oh was für ein ruhiger Nachmitttag." da bekomme ich die Nachricht von den Kollegis, dass unsere Hotline gerade von aussen nicht erreichbar ist... :breaddrool:

The most frustrating thing about IT is having to travel many miles for an emergency change someone raised.
That emergency change? Plugging in a USB cable so people could print from the network printer till a software update is done early next year. A. Smegging. Cable!
Today has been one of those days. Twice! Then people wander why IT Technicians are grumpy.

Dear gods!
We've been having issue imaging one particular laptop recently. Its brand new from Dell, and keeps failing at all three sites at various stages.
Our infrastructure engineer who's looking into fixing this is literally vibe coding the problem. He's just said "I fed the logs to Co-Pilot and it says there's no errors and should build fine".
My guy! If we wanted useless comments, we'd ask the wall! Fix the problem, don't make it worse!

Wenn die (eingehende) Support-Mail mit
"Im arsch was für Daten..." anfängt - dann weißt du, es wird ein guter Montag.

One time I got called to fix a ladies printer.
But when I got there, it turns out that the lady was actually just having trouble navigating a website.
I have no idea why she thought that the website had anything to do with her printer.

This is the entirety of a help thread on the Minecraft Just Create SMP discord. Definitely one of the threads of all time.

Der Support berichtet gerade von einem Kontaktversuch per FAX.
Das haben wir leider schon vor ziemlich genau 4 Jahren final abgeschaltet... #TalesFromTechSupport

Bei einer Textdarstellung "Left-to-right" und "Right-to-left" immer korrekt zu unterscheiden, ist tatsächlich nicht immer trivial.
Das hat wohl auch dieser Spammer gemerkt. Oder eben auch nicht.

Joah, heute war wieder einer dieser Montage: Kompletter Netzwerkausfall beim Arbeitgeber aber die Hotline geht noch "Servus!" "Ja, ist ein generelles Problem, betrifft nicht nur dich." "Ja, die Kollegen wissen Bescheid und arbeiten daran." "Nein, hab leider keine Ahnung, wanns wieder geht." "OK, Tschau." Rinse and repeat. #talesfromtechsupport

Busy day for Dodo today, I'm on site visits and have so far visited 3 stations. Dealing with a desktop I couldn't even log in to because the harddrive had 75Mb free space. There were user profiles dating back 2 ½ years! Over 1.2 million files, over 180Gb of wasted space.
But Windows is "best for business" 🙄

CW: Work rant
I'm so sick of middle management micro-managing things they don't understand!
I just had two of my tickets merged because "it's the same thing". Mate, if it was the same thing on two separate tickets, do you *really* think I'd leave them in my queue when there was an easy stat?!
Leave my queue alone and deal with the actual problems we're facing causing these tickets in the first place!!

Our VPN issue I ranted about last month has started to rear its ugly head with people being knocked off and not being able to work from home.
No Comms have gone out to users, it's not been tested on Windows 10 & 11, and we keep getting shot down being told that "it's fine".What really bugs me is that we have users who live the other side of the country to where our offices are, and the only way they'll get back on the VPN is to travel 100's miles. 🤷🏻♂️

User: How do I get rid of the pegasus spyware
Me: *looks up pegasus*
Me: Are you currently being targeted by the government of Israel?
User: No it's these--
Me: Then I highly doubt you have pegasus on your phone and if you do we can't really help with 0day no touch exploits of unknown sophistication.
**Then I woke up and started the process of going through every app on the phone to prove they aren't being hacked**

User: My flash drive isn't reading on my computer
Me: Does it happen on multiple computers?
User: Yes
Me: I think it might be the flash drive
User: No that doesn't make sense. Why would it give the same error on every computer? It can't be the drive it just worked this morning.

My shift ended 30 minutes ago. I've been spending 27 minutes listening to the user ebay shop.
On one hand, he keeps talking. On the other hand, I get overtime.
But he keeps asking me questions I can't answer. What do you call the end of the power adapter that plugs into the computer? How much would it cost to fix the letter `o` on the keyboard?
"Just take a guess"

It's one of those days...

Just had a really weird issue with a user's laptop: when we built it, we tested the camera using a website. Now, the user is getting a really weird issue whenever they use MSTeams. The check we did worked fine (still does). But for reasons known only to itself, teams doesn't use the camera, it uses the ambient light camera! So the picture is B&W and flickering. No obvious way of changing it. 🤷🏻♂️

Customer: I'm having trouble logging in to my account
Me: ok, what website/application is this?
C: it's the bridge site
Me: uh... What bridge site?
C: THE bridge site
Me: I don't work with your agency very often/at all so I'm sorry I didn't know much. I can try this...
*It works*
C: I'm in.*hangs up*
Me: happy to be of service.

Mikrowellen-Update: Noch unter keine neue Mikrowelle. #talesfromtechsupport

Dass die angeblich schon bestellte MIkrowelle nach drei Wochen noch immer nicht da ist, ist auch schon alles, was man über meinen Arbeitgeber wissen muss. *grml* #talesfromtechsupport

Die neue Arbeitswoche beginnt mit einer kaputten Mikrowelle in der Stockwerks-Küche. *kaltes Müsliessgeraäusch* #talesfromtechsupport

"everything we do regarding this job is all written down."
"What about a command's output that is different on every screen."
"Except that, we just have to memorize that."
