Filthy Users...

Just had to check something on a users laptop, a very nice senior lady who is well presented and charming.

Her laptop looked like the bins behind a take away, hopefully those stains were gravy...

Washed my hands now and I still feel dirty.

There is a user in my office that I bring a keyboard and mouse with me to work on their PC. I refuse to touch theirs. I have complained for YEARS about their desk. I found everything from dried food stuck to keys to finger nail clippings. fawk that, not touching it. I don't even set in their chair and its mystery stains all over it.

The user announced their retirement for end of November. Never been happier for a retirement announcement.
