Q) My computer went down last Tuesday so I called I.T. I told the tech guy that my computer was down. He asked me what was wrong; I told him my computer was down and I needed it up. He had me log off and log back on.
This worked. I asked him what the problem was. He told me I had an I-D-Ten-T problem. What is an I-D-Ten-T problem?
A) Computer techs invented the ID-Ten-T designation as a general category for use anytime they’re dealing with an ID-IO-T. They love it because It gives them a chance to have a good laugh with all the other techs, which is good for tech morale.
