Sometimes a confused fax machine calls me by mistake because someone it works with told it I speak Fax. I usually hang up in disgust because this is Alabama and we only speak English, Spanish, German, and several made up nerd languages here, NOT Fax.

Today though, I decided to jokingly transfer the call to my fax machine. OMG, they had a whole conversation you guys. And my fax machine took notes and printed them out! Maybe fax machines aren't so horrible after all. I'm still not learning Fax.

People seem to pay you more for stuff they are unable to do or just have the feeling that they can not. That might be the reason social work gives you a low income for a very hard work. People think they could also do it and no special qualification is needed, so they think the payment is OK. In tech, most people think it's witchcraft and pay absurdly high prices for support.
