http://rinkworks.com/stupid/ Here is a bunch of stories from people who work at Tech SUpport and the customers they deal with. It is so funny. And some are of peopel who work for tech support and are totally dumb! My favorite one is:

Customer: "When my computer boots up, all I get is a black screen that says, 'boot2/'."
Tech Support: "What operating system are you using?"
Customer: "I'm using Windows 98 and NT 4.0."
Tech Support: "Ok, I'm the Mac tech. The Windows tech is gone, but I can try to help you."
Customer: "Ok, what should I do? I've reformatted the hard drive and have fresh installs of both operating systems."
Tech Support: "Sir, have you put any cheese or mustard in your a drive?"
Customer: "What? Did you just ask me if I put cheese or mustard in my floppy drive?"
Tech Support: "Yeah, we've had that happen a lot lately."
Customer: (staring blankly at roommate, who was laughing uncontrollably on the floor) "I think I'll wait for the PC tech to get back. Thanks for the help." (click)

ok i LOVE THAT SITE LOL.....
Customer: "I just uploaded a file, but now it says I need to turn it off."
Tech Support: "If you sent us a file, that's uploading. If you got a file from us, that's downloading. Did you get a file from us?"
Customer: "Sorry, yes."
Tech Support: "No problem; it's easy to mix them up. When did the computer tell you to shut down or restart?"
Customer: "After I installed it."
Tech Support: "The file?"
Customer: "Yes."
Tech Support: "Which file did you download?"
Customer: "[program]"
Tech Support: "That's normal. You just need to restart before you can use the program."
Customer: "I was afraid of that. I can't afford to do that, so how to get rid of it?"
Tech Support: "Why is restarting a problem? Are you running another program?"
Customer: "I have lots of programs on there, and I don't want to erase them all."
Tech Support: "Have you been saving your work?"
Customer: "Yes, but I don't have a printer, and if I shut down won't I have to start over?"
Tech Support: "No, if you saved your work, when you restart, everything on your computer will still be there."
Customer: "Are you sure? That's not what happens on my calculator."
Tech Support: "I'm sure. I restart all the time."
Customer: "Thank you! This is such a relief. I had this thing a couple weeks now, and it keeps wanting to turn off."
Tech Support: "You don't need to do a shutdown, just a restart. Do you need some help restarting?"
Customer: "No, I'll just try this button."

Tech Support: "Sir, have you put any cheese or mustard in your a drive?"

lol


edit: My favourite story so far

* Tech Support: "All right. Now click 'OK'."
* Customer: "Click 'OK'?"
* Tech Support: "Yes, click 'OK'."
* Customer: "Click 'OK'?"
* Tech Support: "That's right. Click 'OK'."
* Customer: "So I click 'OK', right?"
* Tech Support: "Right. Click 'OK'."

Pause.

* Customer: "I clicked 'Cancel'."
* Tech Support: "YOU CLICKED 'CANCEL'???"
* Customer: "That's what I was supposed to do, right?"
* Tech Support: "No, you were supposed to click 'OK'."
* Customer: "I thought you said to click 'Cancel'."
* Tech Support: "NO. I said to click 'OK'."
* Customer: "Oh."
* Tech Support: "Now we have to start over."
* Customer: "Why?"
* Tech Support: "Because you clicked 'Cancel'."
* Customer: "Wasn't I supposed to click 'Cancel'?"
* Tech Support: "No. Forget that. Let's start from the top."
* Customer: "Ok."

I spent the next fifteen minutes re-constructing the carefully crafted setup for this lady's unique computer.

* Tech Support: "All right. Now, are you ready to click 'OK'?"
* Customer: "Yes."
* Tech Support: "Great. Now click 'OK'."

Pause.

* Customer: "I clicked 'Cancel'."
