Coworkers are such fun, they give me opportunity for conversations such as this:
Them: My mouse stopped moving (and fiddles with the connection)
Me: Try pressing the Windows Key (to see if Windows responds, natch)
Them: I don’t see it. Oh there it is, but how am I supposed to press it when the mouse won’t move?
Me: (smacks forehead) It’s on the keyboard, the little Windows logo
Them: Could you give me a hint where to look?
Me: Between Alt and Ctrl
Them: The Spacebar?
Me: (slams head on desk) No, to the left
Them: Oh, the little windows flag
At which point Windows had stopped whatever it was doing and let the mouse move again. I shit you not, that’s how the dialogue went. These people are being paid to help other people set up their e-mail.
