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…

Tech support : Do you have a color printer ?
Customer : Aaaah………………..thank you.
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 : Yes, I’m sure. I saw my colleague do it.
Tech support : Can you tell me what the password was ?

Customer : Well, I have the letter ’a’ in the address, but how do I get the circle around it ?
A customer called the Canon help desk with a problem with her printer.
Tech support : Are you running it under Windows ?
Customer : “No, my desk is next to the door, but that is a good point. The man sitting in the cubicle next to me is under a window, and his printer is working fine.”
