You work with computers.
Therefore you are an expert.
I often get calls from my father in law saying things like "why is the internet
broken?" (Translation: what have I got wrong in my email settings).
Every so often he gets a virus and loses a bunch of work. He then rings me,
and moans that it's gone. I ask him when he last backed up. He says "Why
would I want to do that?". Repeat ad nauseam.
