The Teenage Techie: A Christmas Surprise Goes Awry
It's the most wonderful time of the year, or so we thought. The Holidays bring gifts, joy, and a chance to reconnect with loved ones. But what happens when your teenager's eyes widen with a mix of shock, disappointment, and utter dismay when they unwrap a gift that's more of a face-palm moment than a festive delight?
Meet our young protagonist, who woke up on Christmas morning to find an Avaya switch with no less than 24 ports staring back at him. Avaya, you may ask, is a well-known telecommunications company that's anything but cutting-edge in today's fast-paced tech world. To put it mildly, our young tech enthusiast had different plans. It seems he was secretly hoping to get his hands on a Mikrotik, a brand that's synonymous with modern networking solutions. As the festive atmosphere turned into a tense standoff, the young man's face twisted into a mix of confusion and disappointment. It was clear: this was not the gift he had been hoping for.
The lesson of the day? Make sure you know your teenager's tech preferences inside and out before making that all-important gift purchase. After all, the last thing you want is to face the wrath of a teenage tech whiz on a mission!
