The IT Guy - Yesterdays Jam?

09-03-2009 12:23pm#1
Moss: You had a job?
Roy: Girl on fifth.
Moss: Did you and her, hit it off?
Roy: Define, hit it off.
Moss: Did she continue talking to you once you'd fixed her computer?
Roy: No! And while I was working on it, she rested a cup on my back. (***turns to point to the coffee cup ring on his back***)
Moss: No....!
Roy: Yup.
Moss: Unbelievable.
Roy: They have no respect for us up there. No respect whatsoever. We're all just drudgeons to them.
Moss: Yes. If there were such a thing as a drudgeon, that is what we would be to them.
Roy: It's like they're pally-wally when there's a problem with their printer, but once it's fixed...
Moss: They toss us away like yesterday's jam.
Roy: YES! Like yesterday's jam! That is what we are to them. (phone rings, Roy picks it up) Err you know what, that doesn't really to work as a thing 'cos jam lasts for ages.
Hello IT. Have you tried turning it off and on again?
Every woman has had the fantasy of being seduced by a sexy, muscular construction worker with a hard hat and a tool belt. If he just so happens to be sensitive and well-read too, she may have found her soul mate.
The Plumber
Mike Delfino from Desperate Housewives, anyone? The sexy plumber is a staple in romantic fantasy. What lonely housewife hasn't dreamt of, well, pipe metaphors abound.
The Musician
Try as they may, women cannot resist the allure of the musician. Whether it is something in his eyes when he sings, or his fingers when he plays the strings of his guitar, his music holds a power over women that they are helpless to displace. But beware, ladies. Musicians are notoriously unfaithful, and you are likely not the only one who noticed his charms.
The Surgeon
Every little girl dreams of growing up one day to marry a surgeon. While all doctors make the traditional "good catch," there is something inherently powerful in the man who is a surgeon. The ability to heal, to wield the knife, and to be the literal difference between life and death is unendingly alluring.
The Cowboy
Maybe it's so obvious that it doesn't need to be said, but I'll go ahead anyway. Women find cowboys to be some of the sexiest men alive. Cowboys have a grittiness, an honesty, and an ability to tame nature while being intimately connected to it. And those Wranglers look so good.
The Firefighter
Perhaps it is the ingrained fairytale of being rescued, of being carried to safety by a big strong man, that makes women find firefighters so appealing. The bravery of these men combines with their muscular arms and soot-colored uniforms to create an erotic ideal.
The Chef
The man who is a chef knows how to exercise control over his staff, is an artist in the kitchen, and will spoon feed you perfectly cracked creme brulee. What better choice in a man can a woman make?
The Furniture Maker
Okay, I'll admit that I may be influenced just a little bit by the character played by John Corbett on Sex and the City. You remember, the shy, long haired, and endlessly sexy Aiden, who chopped wood and stretched cow skin to make one-of-a-kind furniture. Carrie made such a mistake in letting him go.
So where does the IT Guy come in on the sexiest jobs surveys?
- Are us IT guys really just yesterdays jam to all of you......

this should be interesting, consider 90% of boardsies are male, and 99.99999% of them are in IT
uniforms suck anyways, i spent 12 years of my youth in a blue sweater/black sweater i really don't like uniforms, i do have a pair of sneakers though :P0 -

I struck gold, my gf's only brother is a hardcore nerd and she grew up around games and nerd talk, so it was easier for her to accept my nerdilicious ways. So the moral is, chase down all the nerds you know and see if they have any sisters 0

What about unemployed layabouts who do nothing but surf boards and Workout???? Where do we stand?0 -

IT guys come highest on my personal list... not really a conscious thing, just go all to jelly for a man who knows his way around a computer.
Something very sexy about a man who knows what he's doing, whatever the profession.0 -
the majority of i.t guys in my building are hot they say completley innocent things like 'wots wrong with your hardrive' that just send our minds crazy lol

Nothing worse then an IT guy who think cos you have tits that you don't know anything
about your pc and when they do turn up spend the time having a converstaion at your tits.
Actually you can replace IT Guy with nearly any trade monkier and pc with car/appliance ect.
I really don't see the point of this thread, it assume that most of the posters here are
not nerds or nerd friendly and I don't think that boards has reached that point yet.
It is the IT guys/gals job to fix the issue tbh even if the staff they are interacting with
are not the friendly and it's not part of the staff's job to be chummy with someone that they feel they have nothing in common with.
Seriously dude if the office chick you are getting wond up over doesn't see you for what
you want then it could be for a range of reasons all of them more to do with her then you so let it go, build a bridge.
Personally I think I would find it hard to be in a relationship with someone
that I had to explain pc/internet/gaming references to constantly.
Nah, its only meant to be a bit of fun playing off the whole IT Nerd stereotype and I suppose the fact that a good portion of the gals on here could probably write a thesis on nerdy
- But if I have to explain it......0 -

It's actually a kind of interesting sociological point... in ye olden days, women were generally housewives, so men like plumbers, builders, plasterers, firemen, policemen... they were the guys who 'came to their rescue' so to speak.
These days, we're all holed up in offices and the only thing we need rescuing from is IT issues :P :P
Tongue firmly in cheek there... but seriously, I think the 'fantasy man' adapts depending on the situation you're in, if that makes sense.0 -
the IT guy wins here to, because thanks to the internet we can be whoever we want. on weekends i'm a level 75 night elf with mana burning cloakTongue firmly in cheek there... but seriously, I think the 'fantasy man' adapts depending on the situation you're in, if that makes sense.

The wire gauge system. Oh my, what an interesting story there is to this name.
Except not really
Well I thought it would be far more interesting.
Dont search the word Gauge in google. However yours is quite nerdy, so you better start running, cause the women on this thread will be after you.0 -
