The blind teaching the blind.

Some people should not be permitted to own, use or be within 100 ft. of any technology, let alone employ it in the execution of their profession.

I get a call last night which goes something like this:

CALLER: "Where can I get a fire wire?"
ME: "What do you need Firewire® for?"
CALLER: "Because the kids say they need a fire wire to finish their assignment."

( Mr. Head, meet Ms. Desk, I hope you'll be very happy together. )

I Hate Doctors

Dr. Rectus-mindus: "Why the hell can't I get my email?"

Me: "Aaaaah... I give up. Why?"

Dr. Poopie-head: "It says my password is invalid! I just changed one password, and now I have to change my other password? Why can't you people make up your minds?!"

Me: "Actually, your Network password and your email password are the same. When you change one, it changes the other."

Dr. Toilet-lobes: "Why didn't you people tell me that? Huh? You should've informed everyone in this office that email is tied to Windows!"

Me: "We did, sir. We sent out an email 2 weeks before we changed mail servers, then we covered it in the up-training a week later. And I believe we had a conversation last week where I mentioned that email was now directly controlled by your Windows login."

Dr. Caca-cranium: "I don't remember that."

Me: "It was the afternoon when you called me from the airport? You wanted to check your email while you were on vacation? Remember? I said 'Just use your Windows username and password.' We also sent out a follow-up email on this issue."

Dr. Defecation-brain: "Whatever. I don't read email."
