Asking me, a network administrator, to explain every little nuance of everything I do each time you happen to stroll into my office is not only a waste of time, but also a waste of precious oxygen. I was hired because I know how to network computer systems, and you were apparently hired to provide amusement to myself and other employees, who watch you vainly attempt to understand the concept of "cut and paste" for the hundredth time.
When I worked in customer service for Electronic Arts I once got a call from a housewife that questioned everything I told her to do to fix her game. She was playing The Sims. Everything that I told her to do she questioned and told her husband who was next to her. She would then tell me that he thought doing what I was recommending would ruin her system. I was recommending that she shut down unneeded applications that were in her system tray so she could have enough free resources to run the game.

She wouldn't let me speak to her husband who was apparently driving this call nor would she do what I asked in order to help her. I have no idea why she was calling customer service. I hate people like that.
