Every industry spawns some "in jokes" and ours is no exception.  I'll start with some video editing jokes since I do a lot of that:

Q:  How many editors does it take to change a light bulb?

A:  Change?   I'm not changing a thing!

Never trust an editor with a sun tan.

Anybody tempted by the dark side, remember AVID spelled backwards is DIVA

Q:  Why did the film editor decide not to make the change the non linear video editing?

A:  He thought it wasn't a reel job.

So, does anybody have any more?   They don't have to be video related...any "Creative" in jokes are welcome!

Not quite jokes in the traditional sense, but;

If you ever hear a programmer refer to someone as 'NSI', it means No Software Installed.

And one for anyone who has to solve computer Problems; PEBCAK:

Problem Exists Between Chair And Keyboard

That's like the guy whose password was always "Required". Because whenever he signed up at any new website, it always told him; "Password Required."

And yet another from the world of Information Technology;

You know you're an IT professional when; you hear the phrase "Users are losers." and it never occurs to you that they are talking about drugs.

Costello: Hey, Abbott!

Abbot: Yes, Lou?

Costello: I just got my first computer.

Abbot: O.K. Lou. What do want to know?

Costello: I am having no problem turning it on, but I heard that you should be very careful how you turn it off.

Abbot: That's true.

Costello: So, here I am working on my new computer and I want to turn it off. What do I do?

Abbot: Well, first you press the Start button, and then...

Costello: No, I told you, I want to turn it off.

Abbot: I know, you press the Start button-

Costello: Wait a second. I want to turn it off. Off. I know how to start it. So tell me what to do.

Abbot: I did.

Costello: When?

Abbot: When I told you to press the Start button.

Costello: Why should I press the Start button?

Abbot: To shut off the computer.

Costello: I press Start to stop.

Abbot: Well Start doesn't actually stop the computer.

Costello: I knew it! So what do I press.

Abbot: Start

Costello: Start what?

Abbot: Start button.

Costello: Start button to do what?

Abbot: Shut down.

Costello: You don't have to get rude!

Abbot: No, no, no! That's not what I meant.

Costello: Then say what you mean.

Abbot: To shut down the computer, press-

Costello: Don't say, "Start!"

Abbot: Then what do you want me to say?

Costello: Look, if I want to turn off the computer, I am willing to press the Stop button, the End button and Cease and Desist button, but no one in their right mind presses the Start to Stop.

Abbot: But that's what you do.

Costello: And you probably Go at Stop signs, and Stop at green lights.

Abbot: Don't be ridiculous.

Costello: I am being ridiculous? Well. I think it's about time we started this conversation.

Abbot: What are you talking about?

Costello: I am starting this conversation right now. Good-bye.

True story:

I was on the phone to my health insurance provider (in the USA). Long story short, I am in a long wait queue on hold, listening to their telephone MUZAK.

What's playing?  I kid you not.  I can't make this stuff up.  "Suicide is Painless"

Suicide is Painless (M.A.S.H Theme) - YouTube

REALLY Nice music guys!

Another true store from the EARLY days of the original IBM PC that had 2 floppy drives... one for the program disc, the other drive for data

An employee where I worked asked for my help to find his "lost" disc, which he swore was eaten by one of the drives (I was what passed for a computer technician there, because I had an Apple II at home so was supposed to know "everything" about small computers)

After looking very closely, I had to open the computer case and remove the bottom floppy drive... when the computer was assembled the upper and lower drives were just far enough apart that there was a narrow opening between the two drives

Just enough of an opening for him to slide the floppy disk into the gap between the drives, instead of into the actual disc opening

Hi

I will tell you one joke, that is the customer service in India for Adobe. You can get a different answer for the same problem, in the same conversation 5 different ways. Now, they offer 3 month free software in the place of 150-170 us dollars. They also refuse to give me the us contact information
