TechSup: "Ok. Right click again. Do you see a pop-up menu?"
Cust: "No."
TechSup: "Ok, sir. Can you tell me what you have done up until this point?"
Cust: "Sure, you told me to write 'click' and I wrote 'click'."

2)Cust: "I received the software update you sent, but I am still getting the same error message."

4)Cust: "Do I need a computer to use your software?"
TechSup: ?!%#$

5)TechSup: "Ok, in the bottom left hand side of the screen, can you see the 'OK' button displayed?"
Cust: "Wow. How can you see my screen from there?"

16) A plain computer illeterate guy rings tech support to report that his computer is faulty.
Tech: What's the problem?
User: There is smoke coming out of the power supply.
Tech: You'll need a new power supply.
User: No, I don't! I just need to change the startup files.
Tech: Sir, the power supply is faulty. You'll need to replace it.
User: No way! Someone told me that I just needed to change the startup and it will fix the problem! All I need is for you to tell me the command.
10 minutes later, the User is still adamant that he is right. The tech is frustrated and fed up.
Tech: Sorry, Sir. We don't normally tell our customers this, but there is an undocumented DOS command that will fix the problem.
User: I knew it!
Tech: Just add the line LOAD NOSMOKE.COM at the end of the CONFIG.SYS. Let me know how it goes.
10 minutes later.
User: It didn't work. The power supply is still smoking.
Tech: Well, what version of DOS are you using?
User: MS-DOS 6.22.
Tech: That's your problem there. That version of DOS didn't come with NOSMOKE. Contact Microsoft and ask them for a patch that will give you
the file. Let me know how it goes.
1 hour later.
User: I need a new power supply.
Tech: How did you come to that conclusion?
User: Well, I rang Microsoft and told him about what you said, and he started asking questions about the make of power supply.
Tech: Then what did he say?
User: He told me that my power supply isn't compatible with NOSMOKE.

17)CCO: "I need a product identification no. right now and may I help u in finding it out?"
Cust: Sure
CCO: Could u left click on start and do u find 'My Computer'?
Cust: I did left click but how the hell do I find your computer?
