There's some ... well, let's call it playfulness among the project managers at this manufacturing company, according to an IT support pilot fish there.
"Their favorite target right now is our new PM," fish says.
"In the last two days, he has come down with his wireless mouse in hand once, complaining it wasn't working.
"I took off the piece of Post-it note covering the laser and handed it back.
"Then he called today, indicating he couldn't connect to the network.
"I told him to plug his network cord back in.
"I applaud him, though. He understands potential data-corruption issues, and has chosen his retribution path to be noncomputer in nature."
