Im the person who's been "chosen by the people" to do "IT stuff". Family, friends, teachers, and neighbours reach out to me for the simplest tasks. Stuff they could probably figure out on their own, but insist I do for them.
I'm a nightmare for my school administrators, as I know my way around every blocking and monitoring thing they've set up on the school equipment.
I've also caused headaches for the entire city wide school system, as I got cloudflare to (unintentionally) block traffic from our ip address, and since all traffic is funnleded trough a VPN to a central gateway (all schools in said city use the vpn) ,meaning I blocked 66k kids from using the internet for 15m. ( I didn't get in trouble :3)
