    is it just me, or does everyone else see the demise of the human race. After all if you cant read, (or let alone understand a picture) we really are doomed if these idiot clients are the majority of the human race

    I think it's always fun to share these stories with other fellow techs, but I believe the majority of the customers are not like that - as a matter of fact, I'm at a cool customer's site as I type these lines.

    But it's always the jerks that will stay in our memory, since they are the ones who make our job a living hell.

    For the most part the people you are referring to aren't necessarily idiots. They are just incredibly lazy and probably think that dealing with the copier is beneath them.

    Let's break it down a little further - 1/4 the system, 1/4 the teachers (for putting up with the system and allowing the teacher's union to support a broken system), 1/4 the parents, and 1/4 the politicians who keep blocking school choice initiatives, and expansion of charter schools, home schools, and accountability in public education.

    Let me finish by saying I've met a lot of really excellent teachers, parents, students, and politicians (well... not so much here, but a few) so its really the few bad apples in each case (reverse that for politicians) that are spoiling the bunch.
