We have a semi-new employee at the office and she's sweet as can be. But she's never worked in government before and I have to remember that...especially when she has questions that I really want to giggle at. The question, not the person.
The last little bit, she's been having problems logging in. Basically it's just taking way too long. On the one day she worked at home, she asked her techie husband what could be the problem. He said that the laptop may not have enough computer memory.
She came back to the office and she asked her manager if she could get more memorry for her laptop to run better. His response was, go ahead and ask the techies but don't be suprised if they laugh at you and walk away.
The techies aren't mean. But really, when it comes to certain government departments and technology, we are like 5 years behind. MS office 2003? WHATEVER. I'll have to wait until at least 2012. And that's probably ahead of the game.
So my co-worker didn't want to be laughed at...at least not today and decided not to ask the techies.
