As an industrial maintenance tech, I’ve had multiple operators adjusting dials with no wires on them claiming they do something.

Not in IT but once I learned what PICNIC means, I am very careful before I submit any tickets.

I’m not in IT, but a colleague of mine legit sent an IT ticket because our organization updated Zoom and the GIF feature was gone. His ticket read “PUT GIF BUTTON BACK - TIME SENSITIVE TO GET THROUGH MY DAY” 😂😂😂 it was made available within 24 hours

Worked on the IT desk for an online brokerage firm. One of our top traders called in and said his computer cup holder broke and he was worried his computer would fail. It was the CD tray! He was using the freaking CD tray as a cup holder!!!!

I got a ticket once that simply said "I lost my mouse". Turns out, the user still had his physical mouse on his desk, but he had three screens and literally didn't know where his mouse pointer was on his screens. I "found" it for him, turned it bright green and blew it up about 500% so he wouldn't lose it again.

One of our scanners started making a weird noise. I didn’t know how else to describe it besides “printer # sounds like a baby raccoon chirping.” My IT guy came in, listened to the scanner, YouTubed what a baby raccoon sounded like, and fixed it. Then told my manager I should put in all the IT tickets because it made them laugh.

One day when I came back from lunch all my windows kept closing. Everything I clicked on just kept closing. I restarted my computer, unplugged & plug wires back in & then surrendered & submitted an EXTRA URGENT ticket … turns out my stapler was on my ESC button. I wanted to crawl into a hole 🕳️

Worked IT at a hospital. Got an emergency call because the OR was putting a stent in a guys heart and the monitor they were using to watch the heart died. Had to sprint through the hospital and nurses were standing by to suit me up in scrubs so I could go in and replace the monitor.

Lady called said her computer wasn't connecting to WiFi. I told her to reset her router.
"Hold on I need to find a flash light."
"Why"
"My power's out"
