    How is this worthy of an article? I feel like I wasted my life reading this.

      I mean, how would you think this wouldn’t waste your life just from reading the headline?

        “Guilty” in the title made it seem like there was some kind of legal repercussion.

        Instead it was just a story about an everyday occurrence of IT dealing with idiots.

    You never ask them if it’s plugged in. You tell them to unplug it for 10 seconds.

      Having read some software developers’ attempts at writing, or, god help me, contract drafting, I agree completely.

      Doctors are the worst about this though, and everybody WebMD’ing themselves before coming in is simply collective karma.
