This is a question Oldies vs Computers

As someone who is "good with computers" I get a lot of calls from people who've got problems. Some of them even have problems with their computers.

Back many years ago working for a telecoms company, I was called to a senior secretary who "had put a disk into the drive and couldn't get it out". She had one of the first Mac II machines with two drive slots. But only one drive.

Opening up the case revealed stacks of floppy disks that she'd been posting through the hole in the case for weeks. She'd only decided there was a problem when her boss wanted one of them back...

Good with computers? My arse.
A bloke I used to work beside, who we'll call X to protect me from libel (I'm not giving a toss about concealing his identity!), was renowned for being a bit of a computer whiz. So my boss called him up one day to fix a minor problem, and X then sent a rather uncomplimentary e-mail to our IT service telling them what he'd done and that my boss was "a nice enough chap but a bit thick with computers". But he copied the e-mail to my boss, who to his credit took it well, but sent an e-mail to X informing him of the error. That embarrassed him, but I subsequently found out another example of his lack of competence in the PC department.

I had got hold of a work laptop which I needed to do some data logging. X had been using it previously, and so naturally (knowing what he's like) we did a quick check for "*.jpg" to see what would appear. Lo and behold, hundreds of porn pics of blokes putting condoms on, ladies in positions which left nothing to the imagination etc. So when one of our mates came upstairs, we said, "Hey, you'll need to have a look at what we found on this computer that X has been using".

So I fired it up, did the search and picked a few images at random. Only what appeared this time was not an internet download of some anonymous girl - it was X's cock, seemingly fully engorged (although not too impressive...), taken using a webcam. Now before you ask, no we didn't recognise him by his distended member - we recognised the office in the background and his fat belly at the top of the picture.

In order to check if it was indeed his work, we checked the creation date and time, which was about 11pm, and checked the sign-in book. Indeed, X was there at that time on the correct date.

We never yet told him about this, but it's something we're keeping in reserve!

Sorry about the lack of X's length.
