Me: ok type cd\dodgypics
Her: done
M: ok type del *.*
H: done
M: what did it say?
H: nothing.
M: nothing? no messages about the numbers of files deleted, nothing about being unable to delete files
H: No, nothing
M: ok, do dir
H: done
M: ok what's on the screen
H: nothing
M: how can it be nothing? it should have something
H: its blank ok, look, I'll just take it to PC World
M: but they'll charge you.
H: look, some people don't like being given help when it's not asked for
M: but you asked me how to delete the files..
H: <general abuse>
M: block


Not an unusual call in the tech business.

I had a call once from a user. She started swearing at me from the second the forced call came in. Turns out her husband had downloaded a porn dialer and now they have a £475.00 phone bill

She was blaming us for it !!
