Honest, Machines know people in the office. The mass fax/print/scan/copy/store/whoever else knows what else it do? at my old job had favorite people.
It knew if you were talking bad about it and it would find a way to spray you with toner or belch ink on your shoes or create the Worst Paper Jam Ever in the middle of a huge job.
It knew if you were being nice, I swear it knew how to PURR.
It PLAYED PRANKS ON ITS OWN!!! I kind you not.
It was either SENTIENT or possessed by rogue office gremlins. The ones that steal the good pens and take your best white out as tribute.
But I think it was sentient.
At my current job, there is one computer that refuses to work correctly for me. It eats data I input. It goes on the fritz and shuts down right when I need it. It hates me. And it knows I am annoyed with it. It won't tell me what it wants either, so I call it Oscar and I don't think it likes that.
awwww!!!!!!!
