[QUOTE="SoonerP226, post: 3531418, member: 26737"] Back in the day, when I was in CNE training, one of my instructors worked in IT for a large national bank, and he had plenty of help desk stories. He worked out of their office in Dallas, but they had offices all over the country, so he never even met most of the people who called him. One day, one of those people he didn't know called for help. She said her computer was making strange beeping sounds, so he asked her to hold the phone near the computer. Sure enough, it was beeping a fairly standard POST failure beep code, but his inner six year old kicks in, so he hollers "OH MY GOD, IT'S GONNA BLOW!" The next thing he hears is the handset clattering on the desk followed by the sound of high heels running away. Fortunately, he said, a senior VP in New Jersey had a very good sense of humor.
