If you liked that, try this site. It's full of horror stories from computer tech people:

Like this one:

I was giving instructions to a caller once, but his son was the one physically sitting at the computer, so all my instructions had to be relayed. Here's a snippet of the conversation:

Me: "Click on 'start', then select 'shut down', then select 'restart in MS-DOS mode'."
Customer: (to his son) "Ok, press 'start', 'shut up', and 'sit down'!"
The really scary part was what his son said then:

Customer's Son: "Ok, I'm at the C: prompt!"
Do we really want to know what goes on at that house?
