As we Silver Surfers know, sometimes we have trouble with our computers.
 
Yesterday, I had a problem, so I called Georgie , the 11 year old next door, whose bedroom looks like Mission Control, and asked him to come over.
 
Georgie clicked a couple of buttons and solved the problem.
 
As he was walking away, I called after him, 'So, what was wrong?
 
He replied, 'It was an ID ten T error.'
 
I didn't want to appear stupid, but nonetheless inquired, 'An, ID ten T error? What's that? In case I need to fix it again.'
 
Georgie grinned .. 'Haven't you ever heard of an ID ten T error before?
 
'No,' I replied.
 
'Write it down,' he said, 'and I think you'll figure it out.'
 
So I wrote down:
 
ID10T
 
I used to like Georgie , the little shithead.
 
If you're not a Senior yet, then send this to someone who is.

That's always a good explanation.  Another one is PEBCAK (Problem exists between chair and keyboard).

When It worked as a IT specialist (10 years of it) and a person had problems with their computer, the first thing I ask them was "what were they doing?".  Put them on the defensive.  Most of the time it was user error.  Easily fixed.  Made me look good to the bosses.   

Since I have been gone (retired) nearly 6 years, may need a "Georgie" to come over to fix my problems when they develop.  uglystupid2 uglystupid2   (Actually have a son-in-law that is an IT guy for the local hospital who can help when I get stuck).

The next time your son or daughter gives you a hard time about needing them to help you with your computer, remind them that you had to teach them to use a spoon.   2funny
