Widespread network issues in my office today. I try to explain problem to colleagues but they have no idea where their data was stored and never backed it up. In desperation, they call the overwhelmed IT help desk.

@Idoubtit I used to have a sign I would put up on my door. "Do you want it fixed, or do you want me to explain it to you?"

@skroo The trouble is, I overhear people without a clue. They don't ask me to help. I try but they assume I'm not qualified. It's kind of annoying. But,hey, my machine is working and my data is fine. I can't help them if they don't want to help themselves.
