This is a question IT Support

Our IT support guy has been in the job since 1979, and never misses an opportunity to pick up a mouse and say "Hello computer" into it, Star Trek-style. Tell us your tales from the IT support cupboard, either from within or without.

Head of IT (1st post, woo!)
The head of IT at one of my old jobs (who had a PhD in computer science no less!) had a foolproof method of fixing any minor IT niggles you had (such as a non-working network printer). Be busy all morning, wait until lunch time then sneak in and FORMAT your entire sodding machine without warning (& no chance of a backup - "you should of done it this morning anyway").

Nothing like coming back from your sandwiches to watch 6 months of research slowly dissappear before your suddenly tearful eyes...
