    I had a boss who called that connector the “Samsung plug” when I had an external HDD and was trying to find a cable for it. I had an S5 for years, so I knew exactly what he was talking about, not that it quelled my shock given he was the team lead of IT support.

    Needless to say he was (and still probably is) a huge Samsung guy

        I think my initial shock was that he’s my supervisor and couldn’t even identify that it was a standard outside of the Galaxy S5, so it brings any IT knowledge of his into question.

        That being said, he was pretty open about us technicians knowing more about the nitty gritty computing than he did, so his lack of IT knowledge wasn’t a major issue as he was a decent team leader, which I found more important to his position.
