They don't. At least, not until I came along. I went from selling cars to turning a car dealership into a tech farm. I sit behind my desk, all knowing, and whenever anybody needs any info, I fire up my dbase and out spits the answer. We went from one terminal and and antiquated (1988 era) CRM and accounting software package to nine PCs, 4 legacy accounting terminals, and custom software that doesn't take five minutes to generate payment plans. We also went from a single dial-up connection and shoe-leather network to aDSL and Satellite feeds networked to every machine. I'm kind of the hub of it all because the guys here are ... limited in their computer skillz (they can turn them on and play solitaire, but they need me to resize the windows for them because they don't know how whenever they want to do fantasy baseball on Yahoo at the same time). Teaching 65 year old technophobes how to use a word processing program is so entertaining ....
Needless to say, that's how I have time to be here all the time. I keep this in the background for when I'm not keeping the dbase afloat and responding to "technical emergencies" (HELP! I can't figure out how to download pr0n!).
The best part, though, is from the sales desk back, we have almost a complete paperless office. The worst part is that the fastest machine in the store is an old Athlon Legacy 700mhz that I brought in from home (do you know how hard it is to work on a 50MB dbase on a laptop that runs 133mhz on 16MB of RAM? ... that's why I brought in one of my old machines).
"Help! My machine is crashing!"
"It's because of a Redundant Logic-System Dereferencing Problem."
*Dummy Mode On*
"What do I need to do?"
"Flip the red switch on the back to 230V and push that button until smoke starts coming out of the back, then give me a stack of blank, signed purchase orders. Your machine will be running better than ever in about ... two weeks."
"Okay!" Drool drips from his chin ....
Later that day--
"Hello, NewEgg?"
