This was the last email I sent out many years ago, it heralded the end of me working the tech desk.

Inside that box on your desk... there is a whole world full of little elves and data fairies... they work hard round the clock to produce all the pretty colors you see on the screen.

Here are a few maintenance tips for their care!

If your losing data, or passwords or documents... its because the little buggers are escaping through the holes in the back of the magic box... tape those up and your troubles will go away.

If your system keeps crashing it means the elves and fairies are throwing a party... in order to get them to stop you need to tell them so in their native language. You go to a Command prompt (see how it got the name?) And send this command to make them get back to work.... type FDISK or FORMAT C: and they will drop the bs and get back to working hard for your entertainment.

I was lucky I was good at what I did cause there was a great cry for my being shown the door.

These days, the mini fairies who live in Blackberrys seem to rule the day.

One of my friends works in HR for a municipality (which shall remain nameless). One day, the IT guy told him and his office mates that they couldn't turn their desktops sideways because the bits would slide off the hard drive.

This was done totally seriously and literally. No humor was involved.
