If you're under a certain age, odds are a family member has called upon you to assist in a matter of technical support. And usually, you're pretty good at solving it. You know that Chrome slows down when there are too many tabs open. You know how to rename a folder on your desktop. And you know that if all else fails, you should try turning it off and turning it on again. These are the tenants of boomer tech support. 

But if you're lucky enough to do that full-time, then every day might feel like teaching your nan how to turn off caps-lock, and we salute you for your bravery. We need tech support like we need life support. If you can't get your computer to work, then everything threatens to fall out of balance. So here are some memes that celebrate your highly necessary contribution to society. For the IT "it girls," if you will.
