@Root turns out it wasn't my cable that fixed it. Something else is wrong with the printer or the network switch. I don't even get to have bragging rights.
-
@Demolishun You can still brag about how long your cable was by comparison. :)
-
@Demolishun Was going to ask if you work at NVidia with their new GPU plug
-
@BordedDev a new GPU plug? Do you mean the cable you plug in the GPU from the PSU. NVidia changed it again?
-
@TheBeardedOne people are a bit more reserved. I limit this behavior as some people just seem like the kind of people who would complain officially.
So this conversation went to HR territory really fast:
ITGuy: Do you have a cable I can borrow?
me: Maybe, why?
ITGuy: My brand new cable won't work on this printer.
me: <hands my super long cable to him>
ITGuy: Hey that worked!
me: I will test the other cable.
ITGuy: <leaves>
me: <finds no issues and works fine with my computer testing with a speed test>
me: <talking to other guy> I think maybe he didn't plug it in all the way. Sounds like a personal issue.
OtherGuy: Wait, what?
me: I think anything I say after this is going to sound bad.
OtherGuy: Yeah, I think so too.
Things I thought about later:
My super long cable worked, but the ITGuy's shorter cable didn't. Maybe he needs training for plugging in cables?
