'Do it or you're fired': School technician refuses to do science teacher's bidding after she demands he install 'wireless electricity', leaving her high and dry right before class

The twenty-first century is notorious for its unstoppable and quickening pace of technological progress. That being said, some people may find it challenging to keep up with the rapid pace of development.

What follows is a story about a tech support guy who is completely astonished. The Original Poster (OP) is employed at the primary school in his community. Therefore, part of his daily responsibilities is to assist teachers and ensure that their classes go off without a hitch. But OP wasn't ready for the science teacher, who couldn't figure out why the overhead projector wasn't working. The science teacher had trouble understanding that the projector was not wireless and required an electrical outlet in order to function. OP attempted to explain the situation, but she would not listen, insisting there had to be a problem with the projector.

Having said that, be sure to read the story below to learn how OP dealt with the challenging teacher! In addition, don't forget to read the story of an IT worker who cleverly complies with the micromanager, works sixteen hours on a task that should have taken two, and gets the client to refuse to pay the hourly rate!
