I have so many stories, but this is my fav.
I was a brand new sys admin for a large construction company. (I was the entire IT department.)
I had a lady call and tell me her keyboard was messed up and putting random spaces whenever she would type.
Easiest fix first, I just gave her a new keyboard. The problem stayed.
I gave her a different keyboard, still had the problem.
I think, ok, maybe its a bad connector on the motherboard or something. Since I am the only computer person, I go for the fast fix and swap out her pc.
Next day, same problem.
Ok, I have swapped out the keyboard, and the computer.
This was based on her comments, not actually having seen the error occur. (Hey, I was a rookie!)
Anyway, at this point, I go to her cube and watch. Sure enough, random spaces.
So, I move my seat to the side see if I am missing something. I sure was.
She was a large busted gal, and the way she sat, her massive bossoms would just reach down to the keyboard and caress the space bar.
I almost died trying not to laugh out loud. Then, I had to figure out what to tell her.
I made up some crap about the cable being to tight and that she would have to keep the keyboard on a keyboard tray under the desk, versus being on it.
Months later, after we were friends, I actually told her. She laughed...thankfully.
