As you know, I work as an IT guy at a large corporation. I get calls from people who work at the company about a wide variety of things - mostly password resets, computer rebuilds, and porn cleaning. However, a couple days I received a very cryptic call.
ME: "IT, how can I help you?"
HER: "Um, so whats the remote for the password for the remote company site?"
this question makes no sense.
ME: "... I'm sorry, can you repeat the question please?"
HER: (flustered) "The remote password! for the site!"
ME: "Which site are you referring to?"
HER: (angry) "I need the remote password!"
after a few minutes of this, I realized she just needed the password to connect to our wireless network.

seriously, if you are employed by a major company, I expect you to be able to form coherent sentences. And if you can't, there's no reason to get pissy when people can't understand you.
