When a computer starts smoking, it's typically an indication of a problem more severe than one tech support could remedy.

Customer: "There are smoke and flames coming from my computer."
Tech Support: "Uh, hang up, unplug the computer from the wall, and call the local fire department."
Customer: "That's not the problem. I need to know how to do a backup. Fastest possible method."


um should have thought about backup plans BEFORE failures.

I thought the funniest by far was:

Quote:
* Customer: "Hi. I have a Macintosh. I had a disk that I wanted to put in the computer, but it wouldn't go, so I pushed harder, and it wouldn't go, so I pushed REALLY hard, and now it's making funny noises. I think there was a disk in there already."
* Tech Support: "Unplug the computer, now."
* Customer: "I don't want to lose my paper!"
* Tech Support: "Unplug the computer right now. Your paper is lost. Your floppy drive is lost. If you're lucky the Mac will be OK. Unplug it now."
* Customer: "But I don't want to lose my paper!"

After a few more repetitions of this, I heard someone, presumably the client's roommate, scream. Then I heard the dorm fire alarm go off in the background. Those things are awful loud, but she didn't seem interested in unplugging the computer, fleeing the fire in her room, or anything else other than arguing with me. Figuring I was doing her a favor, I hung up.


That one almossst put me in stiches I laughed so hard.

LOL...

Tech Support: "Can I help you?"
Customer: "Yes, my mouse isn't working. It was working fine yesterday."
Tech Support: "Ok, what is it doing, or not doing?"
Customer: "Well, I have an arrow, but it doesn't move when I move the mouse."
Tech Support: "Have you cleaned it?"
Customer: "Yes, I dropped it into a five gallon bucket of water last night."
Tech Support: "You did what?"
Customer: "I opened the case and dropped it into a five gallon bucket of water and let it soak over night."
Tech Support: "Well, ma'am, I would have to say that is probably your problem."
Customer: "Nah, can't be! That won't hurt 'em as long as you let 'em dry out completely before you try to use 'em again!"
Tech Support: "Well, ma'am, that's not exactly the case..."
Customer: "Listen, that isn't the problem!"
Tech Support: "Ok, well...ma'am, I don't know what else do do..."
Customer: (click)

------------------------------------------

I was talking to a fellow co-worker on the phone yesterday:

Co-Worker: "My modem isn't working. I think my kid was screwing with my PC."
Me: "What's wrong with it?"
Co-Worker: "It won't dial or connect or anything."
Me: "Maybe the configuration got changed. Is it still hooked up?"
Co-Worker: "No."
Me: "Oh, well, you need to hook it up. Where is it?"
Co-Worker: "It's in the fridge."
Me: "The fridge? Why the heck is it in the fridge?"
Co-Worker: "Well, it started to get really hot, so I put it in there to cool off."
e to tell you except--"
Customer: "So you're telling me to buy a new mouse."
Tech Support: "I don't see anything else you can do."
Customer: (click)

------------------------------------------------

Customer: "Is it ok to clean my MAC in the tub as long as the power is off?"

------------------------------------------------

Man, this stuff is GREAT!!

Customer: "Hi, I think I've got a problem with my monitor."
Tech Support: "Ah. Do you still have an image?"
Customer: "Yes, best image ever. Thing is, when I look at it from the side, I see red hot components."
Tech Support: "Uh, when you look at it from the SIDE? How can you see any components?"
Customer: "Well, through that big smoking hole."
OMG
