Technical support workers go through a lot in terms of what they see every day.
To be honest, every child or grandchild is a technical support worker in the eyes of their parents and grandparents. This is due to their limited capacity of understanding how technology work. Once my grandfather brought his laptop to me that had a black screen on it. He wanted me to fix it and he had high hopes that I would easily do it. All I did was tap on the trackpad and the laptop came to life from the sleep mode that it went into after sitting idle for 5 minutes (that’s the setting it was on). I set the laptop on “never go to sleep” mode and since then he hasn’t faced this issue. He thanked me and also gave me money. But all of this restarting the internet router or turning a laptop on is easy work. The real technical support people who work out there resolving real issues come with far worse situations than the ones I just mentioned.
These tech support people at times have to fix the dumbest issues. They often get called for matters that end up looking so hilarious and terrible at the same time. Some of these technical support workers decided to capture the most hilarious things they have seen on duty.

And the best part is they give it their everything to resolve the matter at hand. But these situations are hilarious and I am glad these workers decided to capture the moments and shared on the internet for everyone to have a laugh. Proper heroes!
