I don't usually mention work much but this has been brewing for a while and I need to let it out somewhere, otherwise I am likely to swear at the person concerned and end up with a disciplinary

I like to think that I can get around on a computer, but I'm no wizz. I can manage all the things I need to do for my job: Word, Excel, Powerpoint etc. However, it isn't my job to do anything more technicaland I have never really had any proper training in anything else.

Thats because in my office we have a "technical support" guy, and as far as I am aware, technical stuff is his job.

So when I can't do something, or I am a bit slow on the uptake of some new computer thing, why does he shout at me??? He gets paid to help, but every thing I've asked him about for several months now, he just shouts at me, and when I ask him not to shout, but to explain what I am doing wrong, he just walk off in a huff.

I can't help it if I didn't study computers, and don't have diplomas and things in IT. I get paid to help our customers, and I can't shout at them if they are a bit slow on the uptake.

This is starting to upset me now, and I must admit to having a little weep in ladies when he did this last week.

MEN!

(I would just like to point out that this is the same "technical support" guy who removed my old but working printer in June, and replaced in with a brand new one late July, but has so far made no effort of allocate it to my computer, so I always have to log off my own computer and print every document on someone else's)
