Here is one that has happen to me. The person was dealing with an issue with a word document and I asked him if he backed it up. Well he said yes . SO I told him what to do to fix his problem which included turning off the cpu. When he tried to get his dcoument back he could not find it.
So I go down and try to find it but could not find it anywhere.
I asked him too show me what he did and he did everything oaky till it came to to backing and he pushed the monitor back . True story.
This what I call a id-10-t protocol :P :lol: :P
