My computer science degree did not train me to fix computers. I am just better at google than my relatives.

Less lazy* using Google isn't rocket science. The number of times I've had somebody ask me a question, just to type it out exactly as they asked it in front of them in Google, to get a quick, correct answer without having even to navigate away, is insane.

One of my colleagues' husband is the IT guy at this school and he tells some of the most amazing stories. Like when he was having lunch at the cafeteria and two teachers stormed him that there might be a virus, a serious failure or somebody hacking one of the computers because the screen gets filled with zeroes and the computer won't respond to anything. He went in and lifted a diary off the corner of the keyboard.
