As was once observed in the hallowed halls of ATSR [1]

... does it seem our lusers only have a few occupations?

1. They're a "tech themselves," usually having "worked on computers since the Abacus was new."
   • My favourite one of these: had an OLD modem, and INSISTED all these new IRQ's (9-15) were screwing up the way the modem was working. After deciding I was nuts for thinking it could be fixed on the modem (how dare I) he told me he knew JUST how to fix it, and that he was going to cut some of the traces on the motherboard.

     Have a nice day sir. Good luck. Let us know how it turns out.

2. Doctors
3. Lawyers
4. Indian cheifs...er, wait...
5. Even better than lawyers, judges.
6. The head of MegaCorp, who will never buy a system from us again (We've stopped making them, bub... for about a YEAR now.)

I really don't see my day as complete unless I've been threatened with being sued at least once, and bought out once then fired.

So there you have it the current occupations of most people that talk to bob.
