    Or you can get your fat ass up. It is almost always PEBKAC. You aren't working and I am trying to. Go take a shit or smoke or gab in someone else's office.

    I will track you down when it is fixed or I need to show you what you are doing wrong.

    Especially annoying with laptop users.

    Look, I am a tall guy, and your desk is so damn low I could use it as a urinal.

    Just get out of the chair so I don't have to strain my back and eyes to figure out why you can't use your computer.

    If you come at me with that energy, I will grab an intern and have them waste your entire afternoon while they google how to fix something I could have done in two minutes had you just gone into the break room and grabbed coffee or some shit.

    I don't care if people like me, and if your distaste for me prevents you from talking to me its all the better

    And if everyone's distaste for being around you leads to bad quarterlies from your manager, bad peer reviews from your colleagues, your IT tickets being mysteriously deleted so they don't have to deal with you, your team filing reports with HR for harassment, and no one liking you enough to give you the benefit of the doubt, you can take that rudeness into the interview process at a new company and see how far it gets you with their HR.

    I fought this battle with the computer mechanics for 25 years, I always win, I will always win.

    If my tickets get deleted my boss will ensure they magically appear and are serviced, you can try HR for harassment but since there's none its all good. I don't need benefit of the doubt with anyone other than my boss, and my inherent rudeness and lack of empathy are why I generally get promoted.
