They wanted me to troubleshoot a computer problem. I laughed inside so hard, but all I could do is rub the bridge of my nose and explain I worked on the wires only . . . . .[U][I][B]ONLY![/B][/I][/U] they still needed me to try and fix a problem that was only a software problem. I had to call a friend to get some help, charged them double for my time and my friend's time and still more just because they were too lazy to have called an IT person in the first place. My Boss was happy with what I did and gave me the extra I charged.
