So you feel you are lacking of praise, love and acceptance. Life would be so hard for You 😅
So here are shortcuts from old fart like me:
Patience is gold in IT since most of people on this planet don’t understand computers.
It’s always better to wait for people to do everything on their own and fail.
Help only when they ask and you have free time and want to help because the more time they waste the more they would value your help. Sometimes it’s good to ask people to wait for some help.
You will earn some respect and then praise and love.
If you help to much and to fast you would be their slave without any of above.
So saying no is also very important.
Now you are just annoying, selfish young gun that need to get used to that people would not respect you and won’t listen what you say.
Good luck! May the force be with you. -

@Bubbles Did you now realize why the IT guy told your mum to reinstall windows...
It's what he tells everybody, gets paid and has Peace of mind. :)
Peace is key here. He didn't even listen to the problem... Welcome to HumanInteraction101
Im so fucking pissed. so in my family (im an only child) im the computer expert. but everytime i touch something EVERYONE THINKS IM GOING TO BREAK IT OR TELL ME I DONT KNOW WHAT IM FUCKING DOING. FUCKING EXCUSE ME?
My mother was bitching about her laptop she uses for college about how something was not working and she was on the phone with a guy that told her "Its a JavaScript error and he told me I have to redownload windows" and im just like "MOm THERE IS NOT A DAMN NEED FOR YOU TO REINSTALL AN OPERATING SYSTEM FOR AN ERROR ON YOUR BROWSERS SIDE OR THE WEBSITES SIDE" (i didnt get to see the error)
I pick up the laptop and unplug it and she yells at me because the IT man told her it wouldnt work if she unplugged it. So i told her im done helping her with all her bullshit she can do what she wants. and comes in says it works now and she doesnt know why. then goes out and buys a new laptop bc she cant process moving her files on the cloud or a flashdrive.
my entire fucking family is like this.
