I’m amusing myself at the moment by reading these wonderful Tales From the Help Desk from an employee of a Really big Internet service Provider (RIP). Like this:

Customer: “I think I may have forgotten the password… but I’m not sure if I have or not. Can you tell me if I did?”

Operator: “Yes, I can test that for you at this end. What’s the password you’re entering?”

Customer: “I don’t know.”

Operator: “…In that case, I think you’ve forgotten it.”

If ever you need to be reminded how stupid people can be, you need only to read something from here. In the FAQ from the site:

Are the stories really true?

Yes. Every story on this site happened. The calls were all taken by me or co-workers.

I particularly like the ‘They SAY… they MEAN…’ section. Enjoy.
