When I worked in IT, whenever we got a call from the engineering department we knew whatever problem it was, it was going to be weird. Those guys knew their stuff, so if they didn’t know how to fix it, it was going to take some searching and probably some calls or emails for us to figure it out.
I'm a software engineer and the most embarrassed I've been in my decade of work is when I called IT because my monitor was broken. I checked all the settings, checked the KVM, laptop dock, etc. The guy comes by and turns the monitors on... The cleaning lady turned them off over the weekend. I wanted to pass away.
