Amusing moments from the Help Desk

[jchrisobrien]

User: I'm having a problem with my computer, can you come down and fix it?
Me: Hang on a moment, and I'll access your computer remotely.
User: How long will that take?
Me: About a few minutes
User: A few minutes? It will take you that long to just walk down here.
Me: Well, I want to learn more about our remote software tool, and I already know how to walk downstairs.

from an email:

When is somebody available to get us on?

Oh baby, the responses I could write to this.

So far I've only been able to quote John Cusack in Gross Pointe Blank:

"It's not me. Why does everyone always think it's personal?"

Which is telling of my morning and not such a good sign for how the rest of the day is likely to go =(

Glad to see you're keeping yourself amused though!
