    Jay:
    I quickly stopped him from spraying the can, cleared away all the papers, and unplugged the monitor as fast as I could. Flabbergasted, I asked him why he was spraying the monitor with the aerosol can. He replied “the smoke smell was getting to me, so I wanted to use some air freshener on it.”

    In those pre-electronic filing days, I often wonder how bad it would have been had I not bolted up the stairs. That partner had almost set hundreds of records, case files, and other important documents on fire.

    You prevented a lawyer from setting himself on fire? Why?

    He didn't want to debase the memory of Thích Quảng Đức.

    Before you slag people off, learn the difference between "you are" and "your". It's elementary.

    Before you insult someone's intelligence, make sure that you are using the proper form or your(you're).

    I got two sentences into the first one and went, "Hey, I submitted this a few months ago!" Whee.

    People, if you have children in the public school system (hell, ANY school system) don't expect most of the teachers to teach them anything about technology. Yes, this even applies to the computer teachers. In fact, they're the worst, since they're so comfortably superior in their knowledge that they rarely bother to pick up new skills.

    Oh the stories I could tell you about college-educated adults unable to copy and paste... and I'm not even talking about the ones on their way out the door to retirement soon, I'm talking about the ones in their 20s and 30s. It's truly frightening.

    Troubleshooting Step #0: Verify that the problem still exists.

    Or, in this case, it was: Verify that the problem EVER existed.

    When you're trying to fix something, the assumption that there is something actually broken that needs fixing is so basic, people often forget to check it. :-)

    that first one reminds me of a story i read in an old book: the tech, over the phone, asked the user to do something, and he repeated the instructions loudly to someone else. the tech said, "can i please talk to the person AT the computer?" a minute later, he said to do something, and the guy REPEATED THE INSTRUCTIONS LOUDLY TO SOMEONE ELSE! the tech thought to himself, "oh, great, they switched places"!
