Me: Thanks for calling. What do you want?

Cust: I haven't been able to get on the internet for several days.

Me: Sorry 'bout that. What's the modem doing?

Cust: It only has the top two lights on.

Me: Did anything unusual happen at the time time it quit working?

Cust: Well, we had a house fire. Could that have messed things up?

not a half hour of troubleshooting
