Aaaaaand of course we've got a computer that won't connect to our network even when the password is correct. Of freaking course. Everyone else's devices have connected fine but for this one computer. The person having trouble is like just press the reset button. The rest of us are like that'll disconnect everyone from the net. I just can't think why it isn't working other than the person isn't typing the password correctly, and I have no way to visually confirm it. And people's brains will often think stuff is typed right as long as the first and last characters are in place. And I happen to be the most tech savvy of everyone in here. Kinda thought I wouldn't have to be tech support to everyone in here... So much for that idea LOL. I don't mind being Keith's middlewoman between himself and tech, but the people who have said they're computer literate are just... not. Yay! #Rant
