Quite a few years ago...
I was playing around on the internet at work, and saw a photo that gave me the giggles. I'm 75% sure it was here on b3ta, but I may be wrong. If anyone knows who created it, please do let me know.
The photo:
The photo made me giggle like mad, so I immediately set it to my desktop background.
A few days later, our IT helpdesk "professional" came to my office to install some software updates. As I was playing on the internet again, I immediately hit Window+D to minimize all of my open windows. She spotted the picture on my desktop and said "Oh! That's a pretty picture! Did you take that?"
As I quickly right clicked and closed my windows, I muttered "Yes, of course. I managed to capture Darkwing Duck in his native habitat."
This same IT "professional" was the one sent to replace cartridges in printers when they'd run out. (Honestly, I think the IT dept was a bit baffled as to what to do with her.) Every time she had to replace a cartridge on a shared printer in our area, someone would complain that the printer wouldn't work. Every time, I would go out to the printer, remove the cartridge, pull off the tab, then replace the cartridge.
Every. Single. Time.

Maybe you should have just showed her
how to pull the tab off, then you wouldn't have had to go around after her to do it.
