>> Computer guru... yeah rightFools ]

"I started work at the same time as this guy and over the last 4 years I have learned to hate him.We started at the same time and do the same job. When he started he told everyone what a computer guru he was, how he used to design systems as a consultant before he started working with me.I shortly learned that consultant meant temp, systems meant databases and design meant create.Not at all meaning to detract from the skill of other very good database designers, but about 6 weeks after I borrowed a book from the local library called access for dummies I knew more than he did about databases.About 8 months ago I played a prank on him as I was sick of hearing about him being a computer guru. I took a snapshot of his desktop and pasted it into MS Paint, set that as his wallpaper and hid all his icons. The other day I found out that the IT guy had been at his computer to fix his icons.For 8 months this computer guru was using the start button to launch all his programs and hadn't been able to fix it."
