a friend of mine monitors tech calls... makes sure the techs are doing their jobs right..

he tells me about this call from southern alabama.. a guy couldn't get his printer working

tech: okay, I need you to check and make sure that the cartridges are seated properly
customer: um.. ok.. hold on. *sets corded phone down*

4 minutes later

customer: ok looks ok
tech: alright sir, I'd like you to unplug the printer, then plug it back in, and tell me what the lights look like
customer: why does it matter? I always turn it off.
tech: sir, it matters.
customer: I dun think so. off is off.
tech: Sir, lets look at a hypothetical situation.
customer: ok
tech: you have a hairdryer. you're in the bathtub. would you turn the hairdryer off and throw it in the tub with you?
customer: *ponders* well.. I s'pose not
tech: that's right. now go unplug your printer.

Didn't happen to me, but a fellow cubicle mate here... setting up an account, and the guy wanted to use his daughter's name as the password... and so my mate here ask 'can you spell it'... he says ok, one sec please... then whispers "Brianne, don't tell mommy this, but how do you spell your name?"
