I never had such fun experiences. It was always the usual nonsense;
program crashes with error (but never bother to read what the error
message said), or problems caused by malware, or dead hardware.
Usually the worst was when the user fucked himself (who needs
c:\windows\system32 anyway?) but it was all pretty ordinary in its
stupidity.

I think my most memorable support experience was a woman in accounting
(or was it HR?) who was complaining that her column of numbers, from a
database import, wasn't summing in Excel. I banged my head against the
wall for 10-15 minutes trying the usual stuff until it occured to me to
ask her to click the column header and check the "Format..." dialogue.
Sure enough, the entire column was formatted as "text." (*facepalm*)

YOU CAN'T SUM STRINGS.

To this day, I don't know if it was the import software or PEBKAC.

My boss said, "I never would have thought of that."
