Re: False calculations

Yeah - in what world? First you have to get through to your professional, navigate the 'all our staff are really busy, but if you leave a message we will get right back to you' phone system, then wait for them to get back to you (Tuesday next week work for you?). Then suffer the 'Oh - you have a BT router - don't think I've ever seen one of those, we always use CISCO' , then have them set the router up in such a way that yes, you can get onto the corporate VPN but Netflix stops working. Then realise 24 hours later that the printer has stopped working, and go back to stage 1, and now with the added 'what Cowboy set this up...' commentary.

And at $15 an hour you won't get much of a professional.

(disclaimer, I don't have teenagers in the house and our small IT support team are wonderful and actually nothing like the above - just in case I forgot to tick the AC box)
