Probably makes 6 figures but doesn't understand how walpapers work.

    Real talk it was probably Heather works under her and asked "hey what do I do when a large picture of mustard appears on my screen" and Director Of Finance said "reboot and if it's still there I'll let so-and-so know from IT, then emailed it off to so-and-so from IT directly instead of entering a ticket

    Edit: actually reviewing the screenshot it looks like this email was to the ticketing system so Director of Finance appears to have followed the correct prcoess

    My headcannon is more like, Director stops by and wants to know why Heather is looking at mustard bottles again, she has been warned about this, you see. She suddenly jumps and says "Oh, it uh, I was just working and then this happened." Well that's not fair is it? It's not like she was intentionally looking at mustard again

    And that's the thing about IT, we save people's jobs. Even freaks. Blame us, Heather, our shoulders are broad.

    True. I tell my clients when they do something dumb to blame IT. We can take the heat. It's part of the job.

    It's like being a day care center employee. You're always responsible even when little Johnny puts a fork in the electrical socket.

    TBF, Johnny is in daycare because he can't look after himself. Johnny isn't supposed to have unsupervised access to forks, and the electrical sockets are supposed to be covered. So I would consider the daycare at fault.

    Unless that was the joke the whole time and I just got wooshed.
