'Today I snapped': CEO's receptionist bosses around a tech support guy, guilt-tripping him into doing tasks outside his job description before getting hastily put in her place

Whether you're a computer wiz or technologically challenged, we can all agree that there's one office appliance that has earned the award for 'Worst Piece of Equipment Ever Made': The printer. No matter which way you approach it, printers always have something wrong with them, they never work properly, and their interfacing changes seemingly on a whim. I'm not suggesting that printers are out to get us, but if there were any mechanical appliance that was to take over the world just to spite humanity, I wouldn't be surprised if it was somehow orchestrated by the printers.

Although there are some companies where the tech support teams are in charge of printer management, the techy guy in our next story had the fortune to work for a company large enough to outsource this responsibility to professionals. However, the pushy, arrogant, and CLUELESS receptionist in our next story didn't seem to know the difference between the official printer company's tech guys and their own.

Scroll for the entire tale of how a tech support guy stood up for himself by setting healthy boundaries in the workplace, even when a bossy and incompetent coworker tried to push him around.
