This dates back several years ago when I locked myself out of my Cisco account and was trying to do a password reset. The following is a summary of the email back and forth across a little over a week.
Me: I'm trying to do a password reset but I'm not getting the email.
Cisco: We sent an email to ********@gmail.com. We'll send another.
Me: My email is ********a@gmail.com, not ********@gmail.com.
Cisco: Sorry for the confusion, we'll send an email to ********@gmail.com
Me: As I said, that's not my email address, please stop sending emails to it.
Cisco: Sorry for the confusion, we're sending an email to ********@gmail.com
Me: ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?
In the end, I had to create a new account and move my certification profile over to it. Surprisingly, this same guy somehow managed to get that done correctly.

Coworker 1: Someone's messing with Symantec again!
Coworker 2: What?
Coworker 1: Every time someone messes with Symantec, my computer doesn't work!
Coworker 2: There was no scheduled maintenance this week....
Coworker 1: Every time they mess with Symantec, the screen is up when I come in in the morning.
Coworker 2: That's the disk encryption login. You have to put your password into that literally every time your computer boots up.
Coworker 1: I don't know about all that, but someone's been messing with Symantec again. I'm not going to be able to get anything done today.

ticket title: connectivity issue
ticket body: firewall blocking vendor from getting to postage machine.
No contact, no idea who the vendor is, no idea what this "postage machine" is. Sigh.
