By opening your co-workers .docs

Or by downloading not-so-legal software.
Or by visiting sites with "nice" pictures.

I got mine from a hooker named Sam who, interestingly enough, had a larger adams apple than I do. *shrug* Who am I to judge...

That's how I can tell. You're thinking "how can I explain to this retarded moron that he should do what I want because I am so much smarter than he is?"

This is why many of us in computer administration prefer non-psychic retarded morons.

For what it's worth, the difference between IT and IS is not hardware/software. There's never been a firm consensus on which means what, exactly. Across the industry as a whole, they're basically used interchangeably.

That having been said, I'm in IS, and I care about your data - at least, so far as I don't want it to become my data. I especially care about your data if it includes any portion of my data (such as my email address).
