So I'm on my teaching prac and the support staff either love you or hate you in those cases...of course it depends on how you treat them. 
Today I was trying to print off some photos from my SD card and the IT guy helped me log on so I could buzz them through to the network. I then mentioned that I was having trouble getting onto the education department internet. His response was pure gold.
Not only is he letting me use the teacher login to access the computers, he's actually going to create logins for the student teachers to be able to use the computer and internet. I suggested that he make up ones for the three programs that are likely to access the school (two unis in my state and one distance education program) and not only did he agree, but he let me make up the details for them!
So I wound up putting our "mascot" for my uni's details, used the name of a campus for the other uni (their teacher program has been known to be something of a joke on occasion LOL) and gave the distance program the all-generic one of "teachers".
He also encouraged me to create a folder for all the teachers in our block so that we can trade photos and keep hold of stuff for each of the classrooms to benefit the students.
IT guy, can I marry you?
