Sometimes when people say \”Internet is down\”, it means that even if I ask them if they checked if everything is plugged in, I will arrive and find out that an ethernet cord had fallen out of the hub. So I put it back and Internet isn\’t down anymore.

Also \”computers are broken, everything is down!\” also means \”the printer is out of toner, bring a replacement cartridge part q1338a\”.

  1. Go to their place, look at the problem for a few minutes and frown, making comments like, \”Hmm…, uh oh, errr\”. Pace for a few minutes without saying anything. Finally, say, \”This is a pretty serious problem, give me a few days to figure it out\”
