IT Support
Our IT support guy has been in the job since 1979, and never misses an opportunity to pick up a mouse and say "Hello computer" into it, Star Trek-style. Tell us your tales from the IT support cupboard, either from within or without.

Yes.
We have many many more than just the well known 'PEBCAK', 'ID10T' and 'RTFM'.

Yes
but many users have access to the incident reporting system, so I can't tell you what they are.
We don't use ID10T, PICNIC or PEBCAK any more as the users have found out what they mean.
