As an IT professional.... I completely understand where this inhuman being could have originated from. We (the IT professionals) have VERY strong feelings about people interrupting us when we are busy. Any tech worth their salt knows that our bodies can conduct electricity as well....so TECHNICALLY intestines COULD be used as wires.... just probably wouldn't get the best results from then. Though I feel that this is less a thing of "best results", and more just anger issues manifested into reality.

As an IT professional, I’ve had extreme frustration when interrupted when working on the inside of a case. I can totally see how this creature manifested.

Never would have thought about intestines as wires though.

You've seen the ugly in the inhuman and the human alike.... we have to deal with those awful people on the DAILY. I'm not saying I'm team inhuman....but I can see where they are coming from sometimes. I get talked down too, ignored, forgotten, and then expected to drop everything when someone has a problem they created themselves.

Just recently I was forgotten in the office when everyone left early the last business day before a holiday.... they all left early and turned the lights off while I was still here. No one thought to say anything to me about everyone getting out early. So it's the accumulation of all these types of things that most likely gave birth to such an inhuman. I do feel pity for those just trying to do their work and getting the brunt of the collective anger of the IT field. It seems that those that ACTUALLY deserve the consequences never receive them.

I"m also not sure about that Tech gremlin (i mean they call US that...why not it?) but we really appreciate any show of appreciation, like small gifts or food or something. Maybe you can gain it's favor somehow?
