Here are a few little gems from a favourite site of mine. :D :D

Tech Support: "Customer Support, this is David, may I help you?"

Customer: "Hello, yes, it's me."

Tech Support: "Oh, it's me too." [chuckle]

Customer: "No, Esmie. E, s, m, i, e."

Tech Support: "Oh, sorry."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tech Support: "Type 'fix' with an 'f'."

Customer: "Is that 'f' as in 'fix'?"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Customer: "How do you spell 'Internet America'? Is there a space between 'inter' and 'net'?"

Tech Support: "No space between 'inter' and 'net'. It's spelled normally."

Customer: "Ok. A-M-E-R-I-C-K?"

Tech Support: "That's A-M-E-R-I-C-A."

Customer: "I-C-K???"

Tech Support: "'A' as in apple"

Customer: "There's no 'K' in apple!"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tech Support: "Tell me, is the cursor still there?"

Customer: "No, I'm alone right now."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tech Support: "Are you reading an error message to me?"

Customer: "No, I'm reading an error message to you."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tech Support: "Do you have 3 1/2 inch diskettes?"

Customer: "No, I only have 3 of them."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tech Support: "Type 'A' and press Enter."

Customer: "Didn't work."

Tech Support: "What did it do?"

Customer: "Nothing."

Tech Support: "Hmmm...I'll send you a new set of diskettes."

The problem happened again.

Tech Support: "Hmmm...send me the diskettes back."

They ran perfectly on my machine. I had her print her config.sys and autoexec.bat files, etc. No problems. I called her back.

Tech Support: "Type 'A' and press Enter."

In the background, faintly, I heard these "tickety-tickety" sounds.

Tech Support: "What are you doing?"

It turned out she was typing, "Type A and press Enter." The error message at the bottom of the screen apparently didn't count as "doing anything."
