'What the [hey] was I supposed to do?': AP Supervisor of small company scoffs at manager who's upset that he can't control the WiFi

Well, well, well. How the tables have turned. We millennials and Gen Z might have needed help from an adult or two when we were growing up and didn't know how to boil an egg. But look who STILL doesn't understand new technology—how many times do we need to show you how to use the remote?

Reddit user u/GoGoNJDevil recently shared a moment with his manager that truly had him "laughing in millennial." It isn't new to OP that this manager is toxic and rude, and, frankly, annoying. He is already on the hunt for a new job. So it wasn't just this recent interaction that made him reconsider his employment there, but it truly does add the cherry on top. OP is the AP supervisor for this small company. The AP supervisor is the "accounts payable" supervisor, so he deals with all the paying stuff, which means he figures out how to pay for the company wifi. So when Comcast had to do some work on their end at 8 am, and it cut out the service, the boomer manager called OP. He demanded that OP call Comast and remedy the issue immediately. Ok, so, like… Just call Mr. Comcast? Say, "Hey man, can you do me a solid??" LOL

Nope, OP just rolled his eyes and tried his best. He called Comcast, and they told him exactly what he thought they would tell him, that there was nothing they could do. He relayed this to his manager, and apparently, now the wifi not working was HIS fault. What a wild rollercoaster of a job it must be to work for an entitled boomer.
