Customer: Hi, this is Celina. I can't get my diskette out.
   Tech support: Have you tried pushing the Button?

   Tech support: That doesn't sound good; I'll make a note.
Customer: No, wait a minute... I hadn't inserted it yet... it's still on my
desk... sorry....

Tech support: Good day. How may I help you?
   Male customer: Hello... I can't print.
   Tech support: Would you click on "start" for me and...
   Customer: Listen pal; don't start getting technical on me! I'm not Bill
Gates.
===============
Customer: Hi, good afternoon, this is Martha, I can't print. Every time I try, it says 'Can't find printer'. I've even lifted the printer and placed it in
front of the monitor, but the computer still says he can't find it...
   ===============
   Customer: I have problems printing in red...
   Tech support: Do you have a color printer?

   Customer: My keyboard is not working anymore.
   Tech support: Are you sure it's plugged into the computer?
   Customer: No. I can't get behind the computer.
   Tech support: Pick up your keyboard and walk 10 paces back
   Customer:! OK
   Tech support; Did the keyboard come with you?
   Customer: Yes
Tech support: That means the keyboard is not plugged in. Is there another
keyboard?
   Customer: Yes, there's another one here. Ah...that one does work...
   ===============

   == =============
   Customer: I can't get on the Internet.
   Tech support: Are you sure you used the right password?

   Customer: Five stars.
   ===============

computer, but every time I move the mouse, it disappears.
   ===============
   Tech support: How may I help you?
   Customer: I'm writing my first e-mail.
   Tech support: OK, and what seems to be the problem?

circle around it?
   ===============
A woman customer called the Canon help desk with a problem with her printer.
   Tech support: Are you running it under windows?

man sitting in the cubicle next to me is under a window, and his printer is
working fine."
   ===============
   And last but not least...
Tech support: "Okay Bob, let's press the control and escape keys at the same
time. That brings up a task list in the middle of the screen. Now type the
letter "P" to bring up the Program Manager"
   Customer: I don't have a P.
   Tech support: On your keyboard, Bob.
   Customer: What do you mean?
   Tech support: "P".....on your keyboard, Bob.
   Customer: I'M NOT GOING TO DO THAT!
