For the last f***ing time, computer science engineer DOESN'T mean I repair computers!!!

...and no...I won't build you a site...tomorrow...for free

but..but.. printers!

but surely you know more than me...plz fix it so I can watch pornhub tonight

I'm usually say no. I think perhaps breaking it worse than it was before or basically just wiping it and putting gentoo Linux on it (deliberately) so that it becomes almost useless to the user.

Not only will they never ask you again, they'll tell everyone to not ask you for help...

I'm studying to become a computer science engineer and I used to work in a computer repair shop. No escape.

I think my family encouraged me to study CS so I can fix family computers. And printers. And phones. And routers. And set up the network for family friends. And create a useful Excel spreadsheet.

@nmunro you evil evil... I like you :D

@nmunro Been there, done that! But seriously it was a lot of fun. I wiped the guy's drive clean with Darik's boot and nuke and then installed FreeDOS!

@divayprakash FreeDOS? What did that person do to you? Monster... :D

@KeyWeeUsr Yeah, I am and I hate the imposition of being handed a job I'm not qualified to do with the expectation that I can just do it.

@nmunro That's the most eloquent way to put it.

@KeyWeeUsr Well, I was pretty pissed.....
