Everyone has them. The users who call and call and call and CALL for utterly trivial stuff. Timewasting bonebrains of the first water. People who don't understand "We are not providing you support any longer. Stop calling us."
As a corporate helpdesk, we can cut these people off (both phone and email) and direct them to their supervisor for all future interactions. Well, when I say 'cut off', I really mean "One of the low-level managers gets stuck dealing with them", but for the people on the phones it's the same effect.
We're somewhat fortunate to have this system in place, even if it's a little flawed. But it could be a lot better. What's your favorite way to tell certain individuals they won't be receiving any morebeersupport?
