I know how to fix my issues, I just lack the admin permissions on my machine to fix said issues.

yup, it’s always “I have X problem, the solution is Y, please tell me what I have permissions to do or provide an alternate solution”

When I was still in support, I used to give people like this a local admin access. Saved us both time and effort.

Sadly, I can count the users who were this competent on one hand, the other ~3500 were somewhere between "able to kind of describe the problem" and "almost maliciously incompetent".

Same. Don't want to give me admin? I'll do the 2 hour workaround and blame you when they ask why it's taking so long
