IT Guys Push the Power Button

Text on the meme

Why are IT guys such dcks? Last week I drove two hours to push the power button on a server that three separate people assured me was already on.

What it means

A Twitter post jokes that IT workers are difficult, followed by a reply about driving two hours to press a server’s power button after three people claimed it was already on. The punchline is the absurd gap between confident technical assurances and a painfully simple physical problem, making it useful as a reaction to incompetent or overcomplicated IT support.
