Alright I'm probably the outlier here but... I like helping people with their IT needs, and I've always found the problem solving and praise kinda nice. Maybe it's just a me thing tho
imo - you are not the outlier, you just haven't yet progressed to the mostly inevitable stage where people take advantage of your help, or their spyware ridden dumpster fire of a laptop breaks and they blame you because you "touched it last" - never mind that was 6 months ago and the only thing you did was change the screensaver timeout.
