Oh, I could tell some stories. Like the senior manager at a large beverage company whose was boss to all the DAs and DBAs, but could not personally format a floppy. Or the client who had me drive 100 miles to his location because his computer wouldn't come on - it was plugged nicely into the power strip, but he failed to plug the power strip into the outlet. Or the time I was trying to troubleshoot a CD drive over the phone, and after asking the customer for the third time to put in a different CD, he said "there are two in tray already, I don't think anymore will fit." Or the accounting manager who would hit the break key on her terminal, sending it into debug mode everyday, because she thought she had to tell the company when she was going on break.
