Hey...I am looking for good IT cartoons to post on the door to my office that would subtlely get the point across that users are stupid when it comes to computers....you folks have any good ones to share?

 

No catoons but go to illwillpress.com and click on toons watch the cartoon Tech Support. It does have Bad language!!

 

I like this one:

 

I guess what I am looking for is more along the lines of this:

Lets say instead of wanting to show that USERS are frustrating to IT....I want to show that ENGINEERS are frustrating to Contractors....I would show this cartoon:

 

I have several posted on my cubical of that nature but that doesn't help you.

Here's a Dilbert, text only

Now What?

Create a passwrd that's at least six characters long with a mix of letters and numbers

How about 123?

Uh, no. It has to include letters and be at least 6 characters long.

How about ABC?

LETTERS AND NUMBERS AT LEAST SIX CHARACTERS LONG!!!

Foursome??


** The reason I have this on my cube is because I had to have this argument with a co-worker......Get this, he's our programmer. Damn idiot

 

Not a cartoon, but I have this on my door

1. When you call us to have your computer moved, be sure
to leave it buried under half a ton of postcards, baby
pictures, stuffed animals, dried flowers and children's
art. We don't have a life, and we find it deeply
moving to catch a fleeting glimpse of yours.
2. Don't write anything down. Ever. We can play back the
error messages from here.
3. When an I.T. person says he's coming right over, go for
coffee. That way you won't be there when we need your
password. It's nothing for us to remember 700 screen saver
passwords.
4. When you call the help desk, state what you want, not
what's keeping you from getting it. We don't need to know
that you can't get into your mail because your computer
won't power on at all.
5. When I.T. support sends you an E-Mail with high importance,
delete it at once. We're just testing.
6. When an I.T. person is eating lunch at his desk, walk right
in and talk incessantly about your problems. We exist only
to serve.
7. Send urgent emails all in uppercase. The mail server picks
it up and flags it as a rush delivery.
8. When the photocopier, office alarm, heater, desk fan, doesn't
work, call computer support. There's electronics in it.
9. When you're getting a NO DIAL TONE message at home, call computer
support. We can fix your telephone line from here.
10. When you have a dozen old computer screens to get rid of, call
computer support. We're collectors.
11. When something's wrong with your home PC bring it into work,
dump it on an I.T. person's chair with no name, no phone number
and no description of the problem. We love a puzzle.
12. When an I.T. person tells you that computer screens don't have
cartridges in them, argue. We love a good argument.
13. When an I.T. person tells you that he'll be there shortly, reply
in a catching tone of voice: "And just how many weeks do you mean
by shortly?" that motivates us.
14. When the printer won't print, re-send the job at least 20 times.
Print jobs frequently get sucked into black holes.
15. When the printer still won't print after 20 tries, send the job to
all 68 printers in the company. One of them is bound to work.
16. Don't learn the proper name for anything technical. We know exactly
what you mean by "My thingy made a wooshing noise".
17. Don't use on-line help. On-line help is for wimps.




18. If the mouse cable keeps knocking down the framed picture of your
dog or children, lift the computer and stuff the cable under it.
Mouse cables were designed to have 20kg of computer sitting on
top of them.
19. If the space bar on your keyboard doesn't work, blame it on the
internal mail system. Keyboards are actually very happy with half
a pound of doughnut crumbs and nail clippings in them.
20. When you get a message saying "Are you sure?" click on that Yes
button as fast as you can. Hell, if you weren't sure, you wouldn't
be doing it would you?
21. When you find an I.T. person on the phone with his bank or on a
personal call, sit uninvited on the corner of his desk and stare
at him until he hangs up. We don't have any money to speak of
anyway.
22. Feel perfectly free to say things like "I don't know nothing about
that computer crap". We don't mind at all hearing our area of
professional expertise referred to as crap.
23. When you need to change the toner cartridge in a printer, call I.T.
support. Changing a toner cartridge is an extremely complex task, and
Hewlett-Packard recommends that only a professional engineer perform
it with a master's degree in nuclear physics.
24. When something's the matter with your computer, ask your secretary
to call the help desk. We enjoy the challenge of having to deal
with a third party who doesn't know anything about the problem.
25. If you receive a 30mb (huge) movie file, send it to everyone as a
mail attachment. We've got lots of disk space on that mail server.
26. Don't even think of breaking large print jobs down into smaller
chunks. Somebody else might get a chance to squeeze a memo into
the queue.
27. When you lose your car keys, send an email to the entire company.
28. When you bump into an I.T. person at the supermarket on a Saturday,
ask a computer question. We do weekends.
29. Don't bother to tell us when you move computers around on your own.
Computer names are just a cosmetic feature.
30. When you bring your own personal home PC for repair at the office,
leave the documentation at home. We'll find all the settings and
drivers somewhere.

 

I dunno about comics, but I always liked the Bastard Operator from Hell.
