The winner of the moron of the day award goes to the director of IT at Dade Behring.
His question that earned him this award was.
"what the heck is the blue screen of death?"
how in the hell can you be a director if IT and not know that?

Because, management positions such as that are not merit based positions, they're for the stupid cousins/nephews and such of the higher ups.

Amen, hallelujia.
One of the major drawbacks to the corporate culture is that the folks who would make really great managers refuse to manage, 'cause they're already doing what they love and don't wanna have to deal with idiots. So, the company is forced to hire morons from outside to fill positions that they aren't really qualified for.
Nyrr -- if it weren't for the money, I'd quit.

HAH! I remember that problem. I left it to a certain couple of people to deal with.
Imagine how it felt having 2 or 3 people show up still drunk from the night before.
However, you've got to admit, it went well - all things considered.
Now you see why particular people were needed to balance the outright stupidity of others.

Yeah, but it was just ridiculous...and I assume you know who I'm talking about, right?

And I could probably do better tech support piss drunk than some of the ninnies who are doing tech support sober.
For example, true story:
TS: How can I help you today? kuru: My monitor is not producing a viewable image. TS: What do you see on the screen? kuru: A green box that is flickering and rolling horizontally. TS: Are you sure it's not the screen saver? kuru: I turned off the screen saver. TS: What operating system are you using? kuru: Windows NT Server TS: Your monitor is not compatible with Windows NT Server. You need to uninstall it. kuru: The monitor is just a display device, so there is no way it can be 'incompatible' with my operating system. TS: Well, this one can only be used with Windows 95. Using Windows NT will make the monitor not functional. kuru: Let me talk to a supervisor. TS: Ma'am, I'm telling you, Windows NT caused your monitor to break. kuru: I want to talk to someone who knows what the hell they're talking about, and I want to talk to them now. TS: How long have you had Windows NT? kuru: Two years. TS: And this problem just started? kuru: Fifteen minutes ago. TS: I'll transfer your call now.
Five minutes later the Tier 2 tech support guy had my name and address and was shipping me a new monitor.
