I'm the unofficial end-user support guy for my office. Since I know a lot (relative to the people in my office) about computers I get to fix their ****-ups. I couldn't do it for real. I don't have the patience, and swearing at your co-workers is not a generally accepted principal in the rest of the world. Apparently it's OK in the Army, though

Ooo Oooo... pick me...
Worked for Maui.net... did Tech Support....
Worked for Maui Gateway... more Tech Support...
Became SysAd for Maui Gateway... became tech support for Tech Support personal...
Work at Pacific Disaster Center... Win2k SysAd... Help Desk for 40 employees....
So yah... it only gets worse with time... it's bad enough when some goober that just bought a computer at Costco is asking "What do I do now that this box says 'Connected to the Internet' and has a timer? Where's the Internet?"... but it's even worse when someone that aquired a Bachlors of Computer Science from a supposedly reputable university is asking you why their "Main computer box thingy" is barking at them.... that oooo so recognizable sound being that of a hard drive trying to spin up and failing miserably...
Oooo... I love my job... really...

Plain and simple, users are dumb.
