Yes, incredulous IT guy, I can (and did) map a network drive.
"All by yourself?"
Uh-huh.

Heehee.

BTW Did my workaround work?

LOL.

I, too, am CAPABLE of doing so. Unfortunately, our network permissions are set up such that I am physically incapable of doing it.

I have, however, trained my IT department not to ask me stupid ass "end users are clueless morons" questions and convinced them that I do, in fact, know what the hell I am doing. They've even stopped trying to argue with me when I tell them one of our people has a corrupted printer driver. *grins*

I'm quite proud of myself.

Good ones do. The poorest ones react to any sign of competence or knowledge as an affront to their Awesome Priestly Power and react defensively.

"Well, damn, why didn't I know this before so I could get you to do IT stuff when I was too busy to come up here."

The best compliment I ever got was when my manager told me to go map someone else's network drive without previous knowledge that I could.

She was computer savvy enough to observe that I was, too.
