Printers Hate Tech Guys

Once again, the printers have proven that they are the bane of my existence. Steve and I went to the computer lab to do our compilers homework. It took a little over 3 hours to get the program working correctly. Apparently you can't just copy code from a pdf file to a text editor and have it work. Oh no. You gotta type everything in by hand or else the compiler things you did some weird stuff to it. I finally got it working, then I couldn't print it. OMG! There were no printers connected... We went to the gaming lab. The print option was grayed out... We went to the circuits lab. The printers were not there!!!! I found out that for some strange reason, the printers would not show up on any word/notepad/wordpad/IE document, but if I opened it in Firefox the printers showed up. I had to save my homework.out file to a homework.txt file, email it to myself again, open it in google documents, and finally print it. OMG that was the most retarded thing I have ever seen computers done.
