Oh, you have that aura too? I like it in that it helps me avoid spending time on fixes, but it's annoying too because deep in my mind I wonder what really went wrong.
The printers are playing the long game.
I've had users who had equipment that worked when I came in to help them with the problem. I think what actually happens is that the user, possibly unconsciously, realizes that they have to pay attention to the UI, because I will, and does the action to make the equipment work the way it's supposed to work.
I think this is correct. People tend to read the dialog boxes when I'm there to help because they don't want to feel stupid I guess. Now if I could just get my youngest nephew to stop using his full first and last name as his username on fucking everything.
I do that with my SO too even though they're not a tech person at all lol. I'm just like "can you come over for a second and watch this error because it'll work if I show someone else." And that genuinely does the trick maybe 30% of the time. One of the mysteries of the universe
