TechSideStories is a site based on the tech support stories told by all walks of people. The goal of TechSideStories is to realize how funny tech support is and to share it with others. To show how one person’s pain is another’s enjoyment. How something that may seem simple to some may be rocket science to others. We want/encourage everyone to share their stories here, so that others can see laughter is found in every situation.

All stories are submitted, selected, reviewed and posted. And where possible, we’re going to place a graphic/illustration with the story. To submit your story go to the submit page and fill out the form. You can also leave us a voicemail by calling 469-248-5877

Most company security polices say that you have to use their equipment, the way they say, when they say it and any deviation from that is prohibited. And any violations of said terms are grounds for termination.

Well then… okay.

Bring on the pain…

Maybe because you buy the cheapest pieces of crap PC’s and then load them down with piles of high intensive security crap and then it takes 10 minutes to boot the damn PC and then they wonder why their damn electric bill is higher; it’s because the workers don’t want to turn the PC’s off- so they can just come in and go to work.

That’s why they don’t want to reboot their PC in the middle of the day!

And while Microsoft moves on with Windows 7; there’s always gonna be good ole’ Vista in the rafters… like a retarded kid with a hammer.
