It’s time to swap the swear jar for systems support

It’s time to swap the swear jar for systems support

Swearing can feel therapeutic, especially in those stressful moments we all experience in the workplace. It’s as if profanity acts as a sudden spa treatment for the vocal cords. An instant release for whatever’s got under your bonnet.

Depending on where the gauge is pointing on my stress-o-meter, you might hear me grumble “goddamnit”. Or in extreme scenarios, such as forgetting my packed lunch or not finding a parking space, you might witness me bellow “son of a Klingon”. Different swears for different scenarios.

“This better be going somewhere, Captain”

I’ve got a theory the most common cause of swearing in the workplace is a result of desktop messages just like this:

‘ESSENTIAL UPDATES IN PROGRESS… 31 MINUTES REMAINING’

Although it gives you the time to pop home and grab your packed lunch, it’s not the best use of your time – especially when you’ve got a squillion things to do.

But that’s where our intergalactic IT support packages can help.

Depending on the contract you have in place with us, we’ll update all your devices at times that suit you. We can also backup your systems, update your antivirus protection, and generally keep your tech nice ‘n’ tidy. And all for a sensible monthly fee.

“I’m onboard. What’s next?”

If you’d like to learn more about our IT support services (and want to reduce your monthly swear jar contributions), call us today on 01903 25 99 23.

Until the next time. ????
