This is a question Clients Are Stupid

I once had to train a client on how to use their new website. I said, "point the mouse at that button." They looked at me with a quizzical expression, picked up the mouse and held it to the screen. Can you beat this bit of client stupidity?

'tis true
I have enough storys about clients, but here is a good one.

I made a website for a client, and it was all going well. Managed to get all the right places on google, and he was happy. The following week he phones up and starts shouting at me "WHY IS THE WEBSITE DOWN !!!!".

I on to check the site and it was fine. I asked him to point out the problem, and he said "It is down, look. I want my money back" and starts going off on one about legal fees due to the site being down.

After 30 minuites he logs onto the internet.


My Family
Like a client, im teaching my arnty and uncle to use the computer. They have a few observations that I found funny.

1: You have to press "start" to turn off the copmuter
2: You have to press the 'power' button to turn the power off

After point 2, It toke me a good 20 mins to explain that it is the same as the TV.
