He looks like he works in IT.
Eh I never minded. I preferred printer problems. Fixing the default printing source made me cool. Downloading a driver or pointing a user to the right network printer made me a hero.

First me then the printer
Printer first. Let the guy die with some sense of satisfaction. What are we? Monsters?
