      I spent over an hour on a support call trying to walk an asshole lady through fixing her Adobe Illustrator, for her to stop mid-instructions to say she couldn’t tell me what the status was because her power was out due to a fucking hurricane in her area! 🤦‍♂️

      Side note: that was one of the two times my bosses didn’t get upset at me for telling off a customer.

        I’m the family tech support person so I know your pain

        It’s a pain in the ass when you have a parent who won’t even try to learn to do something after trying to teach them and they call you everytime they need to do something
