I propose that all new computers be equipped with factory operable self destruct devices consisting of no less than ten pounds of c4 and two pounds of lead shot

Dear god... I don't envy tech support people at all...

Too many. I still remember telling a guy to read step #2 and he told me there was no step 2, there were only 4 steps.

Sadly, I can, because I've been on the tech support guy's end of it and have heard very similar calls.

This woman makes my fucking brain hurt. Seriously, how does this guy not unleash the fury over the phone? What a hero, he should get a raise. I've called for some things that were sort of dumb but nothing that bad. I usually get pretty cool tech support guys, they must pick dudes that have a lot of patience for that job.

I took a call today from a lady that wanted to know how to crop a photo in PowerPoint.

I'm a software developer for a mid-sized logistics company. There aren't many of us here, so my secondary duty is to answer the support line if the regular support guy is busy. Today, he was on vacation.

In helping her, I discovered that she was opening up a photo in MS Paint, screen shotting her ENTIRE desktop and pasting it into PowerPoint. She was then in PowerPoint, struggling to crop her desktop parts out of the screen shot.

I showed her how to insert the photo directly.
