Phone support - Was Re: Kclug Digest, Vol 39, Issue 9

A co-worker and I tried to do phone support for a woman in Cincinnati once for over a week. Finally had a techie go to her desk and do things for us like send a screen shot. Found out everything she said she was doing was a lie. Not even close!

Ah yes, phone support.
