Once again, names changed to protect the mortally stupid:


HIM: I need my password reset.
ME: OK, what's your username?
HIM: John Middleton.
ME: (going into "explain it" mode)  Sorry, your login ID, your login name? Your username?
HIM: My badge number is X4798.
ME: Sorry, what do you log in as?
HIM: (tone of voice clearly indicating his perceived mental superiority to me) Do you mean my user ID?
ME: (sigh, whatever)  Sure.
(He finally gives it.  I look up his account.)
ME: OK, it looks like the password has expired. It has to be at least eight characters. Do you have a preference for what it should be?
HIM: No. But what do you mean by preference?
