Stupid things people say at work

[mejinks]

Ha ha Garp, that reminds me of a classic:

When I worked on the BT connect helpdesk, we would have a regular call from a guy who had an ISDN router (provided by BT). It would regularly go down, but because he wanted it logged how many times it went down he would call every time. This one day he rang in and I asked him to do a few more checks than norm (like serial and production number as I wanted to get it changed out) anyway, he puts me on hold for about 10 minutes.

When he comes back he is a bit sheepish and tells me he managed to solve the problem of why it wasn't connecting today....














Someone had broken into his comms room and stolen all the kit including a new Compaq server....
