I heard this on a radio segment dealing with the topic of stupidest people you've ever met .
The caller said his job was selling and servicing office equipment . He said a lady called in to him and said ,"I recently purchased on of your very expensive fax machines. It's not working! I'm very frustrated and angry!"
The salesman trouble shoots the problem with her for a full 20 minutes , going through everything from the machine being plugged in to verifying that the fax number she's sending to is a valid number , to making sure she's hitting the "send" button . She still is insistant the the machine is not functioning . Everything seems to be in order . Still not understanding exactly what the problem is , he says , "So what leads you to beleive the machine's not working?"
She says angrily , "Because when I open up the tray where I placed the origional document , IT'S STILL HERE ! It didn't get sent!"
