When you're the expert in your field, you can choose to be picky about what jobs you accept.

For those with the unofficial title of 'tech guru' in the family or the one often hailed as the 'PC prodigy' among friends, the quirky world of technology pitfalls is all too familiar. The moment you pair a device to Bluetooth or conquer the Wi-Fi printer setup, you're christened as the 'Digital Maestro'. Delve into our collection of 37 hilarious memes that echo every tech hiccup, from the anxiety-inducing loading circle to the timeless "have you tried switching it off and on?" mantra. Kick bac…

Verbal reprimands are usually a sign of a toxic workplace… with screaming, yelling, or explosive tantrums from your boss being a sure sign that you should start looking for a new place to work. Now, that doesn't mean that every piece of feedback falls under this category. Sure, it might not feel great when your boss tells you you've made a mistake or that you need to up your game… even if the Chief Executive answers to someone and feedback is literally just a part of the job. It can get confusi…

Things took an interesting turn in this post, where a candidate shared their story of leaving an interview after feeling that their time had been disrespected. The candidate recounted their experience of attending an interview where the interviewer was late to attend. They found themselves still waiting after the appointment had been scheduled to start. After being asked to wait for a moment, a representative of the organization returned, claiming that the interviewing manager had been delayed…

Don't you hate it when the texts go green?

Pulling far greater than your own weight at work—or in any team—is a common frustration to experience and can make you feel like you're carrying an incredible burden on your shoulders. What's worse, it can make you wonder whether any effort is even worth it… Why bother working so hard if your coworkers are just going to refuse to do their fair share (and get away with doing less) anyway? This is something that you first encounter in grade school in the form of group projects, with some members…

They made this dude's job too easy. A tech worker shared their story of what happened when their computer broke . Like many workplaces, some people have a knack for being able to troubleshoot technology . It's a valuable skill — many of us just don't have the technological know-how to fix these issues without recruiting someone from the IT department. To be fair, a lot of the time you only have to turn your computer off and on again, or clear the browser history, and for some reason it does fix…

Being a ruthless cutthroat certainly has its advantages. Being unencumbered by the usual social requirements like empathy, mutualism, and reciprocation really frees you up to make some agile and dastardly moves. Still, the only friends you'll make will be “yes men” and sycophants, who are really only there to ride your coattails and feed off your scorched-earth rampage to the top, hanging around begging for scraps like a dog at the dinner table. When the house of cards eventually topples, these…

A sad occasion has occurred. Seven years after initially building and upgrading my PC, the system has finally failed. Hours of diagnostics and prodding proved fruitless. My gaming computer has definitely bit the dust. I knew it was coming. The setup was already on its last legs. It's just sad to finally see the day come when it gave up. My desktop has been there for me through thick and thin. But when there's loss, there's room for growth. I'm assembling my new build . There's a lot to consider…

Good Sunday, code connoisseurs and CPU celebrators. Depending on your outlook on life, it's that incredible, or maybe not so incredible, time of the week when we welcome the new week with a company of computer programming comedy ! Buckle up, you're in for some meticulously tech-based memes. I admit this every week. I am by no means a programmer. I've dabbled, I've endured the introductory courses, and I've ultimately failed at my previous aspirations of becoming a programmer. That's not meant t…

If you consider yourself to be smart and clever, you might think that you can get away with gaming the system, and it's only when it blows up in your face that you realize how much you overestimated your intelligence. Congratulations, you played yourself. Maintaining one full-time job is a lot of work, so it really makes you wonder how some people have been, reportedly, managing to work two at the same time. Every now and then, you see a story pop up online about someone who has been holding do…

As a sales person, this employee still has to field a lot of customer service calls . Due to a mix up with the phone systems' phrasing, lots of confused customers get sent to u/d**nknife's phone line. They shared one story of a customer who just could not understand what they were paying for on their phone plan . I guess the customer isn't always right after all. If you've ever talked to someone who's worked a customer service phone operator job, they'll tell you that it takes some strategy. Th…

Your personal devices are exactly that: personal… and shouldn't be confused with tools that were provided to you by your workplace for—well, work... That's not to say you shouldn't ever use your personal devices for any work-related reason—but this should only be done on a case-by-case basis and shouldn't ever extend to allowing your boss remote control over your personal computer. At any rate, you'd probably expect your management role that requires the use of a laptop and a cellphone would pr…
