Not PC related, but I was a service technician for a company that sold ice cream machines and I had this one call that I'll never forget... This woman has a store built for her, we just came come to train her on how to use the machines (the important bit for this being a switch: day mode and night mode.) When you leave for the day you switch to night mode and when you come back you set it to day mode so it freezes. She calls us saying all the ice cream is too soft and almost liquid. She never switched from night to day... Like it's one step. Only one step. You come in and flip the switch from night to day lol

I felt terrible about having to charge her for it but I had no control over that.

Haha nice. That was essentially like my job. I went from upgrading PCs all over a hospital to turning on computers in a small office building. I'd get a max of 10 tickets a day in 8 hours, half of which were power button related.
