Ever see the light??

[VipFREAK]

I don't know if it's me or what I mean I've used computers and even though I don't know a whole lot I don't screw around with them in ways I'm not supposed to but I've never met any technology including computers that worked the way they claim or supposed to. I don't feel "free" like it's actually helping it's always well this doesn't work or there's this minor problem or well you can't do that. So do you have to live with it? I don't need help with any problems but there's always something even if it's not a big one.

And your point was?

Nick.
I'm a bloke who has worked in maintenance for twenty years.

The job is never finished.

That can be very frustrating, agreed.

But on the flip side.

There is always more to do.

Keeps us in work!

i think the reason is, it isnt the machines fault. its us who made it. if we had the capability, we could make machines that worked flawlessly. but unlike machines where everything is definate and concrete, literally either ON or OFF, us humans have the ability to go in the middle, ride the fence whatever you want to call it. we dont think the same way that computers do, and its hard to build a machine that can flawlessly work when it operates with concrete logic and we dont. if that made absolutly no sense at all, i understand, its late and im tired and a little buzzed but thats my opinion anyway...
