PLEASE don't do this! I have ENOUGH trouble when I get addicted to The Daily WTF: Curious Perversions in Information Technology , etc...! I am STILL wondering if I should make a contribution to The Daily WTF: Curious Perversions in Information Technology .

It is JUST funny enough to be true! I HAVE been in places where you could easily kick out the cable, etc.... HECK, I have accidentally done that myself, though I ALWAYS check such connections and the like BEFORE calling the help desk. But I know people that don't DARE to check such things. They are like the guys that call 911 because they didn't get fries from mcdonalds.

I usually get a guy that assumes I know NOTHING and s/he goes by a stupid script, and/or accuses ME of creating the problem, even if half the company, or all the company, has the same problem.

I love the idea of telling the guy to just pull, and then saying it is a hardware problem though!
