The I.T. Guy: A Tribute

Do you have an It Guy in your office? Here's a handy field guide on how to recognize an IT Guy from quite far away. Urban Dictionary defines the I.T. guy as "A person who works in a small closet setting up computers and answering help requests all day with at least 3 of the following 4 symptoms... 1 - Uses Linux 2 - Believes other employees exists to serve him, not the other way around 3 - Has told the coffee holder joke to friends/family  4 - Smug beyond belief."

Perhaps there's one of these guys in your office. If he knew you were reading this, you could hear his eyes roll from three counties over.

And he's not a guy you wanna cross, trust us.

So, be nice to the I.T. guy. Maybe bring him some muffins. Not that it would make a difference. Not at all. He'll always be sneaky and disdainful, your I.T. Guy. And he has access to everything on your work hard drive. So, watch out.
