Recently , a surprising revelation was found at the technical director at the company where Dudley H. works : technical support should never arise. If the client has a question about one of their products, then the problem is probably in the product. Perhaps the UI is slurred. Perhaps a little documentation. Or the instructions are confusing. Regardless of the reason, each client’s problem means that someone - a developer, tester, or helpdesk employee - did a poor job and should try to improve his part.

Naturally, most of the helpdesk lobbied against the revelation of those. directors counterargument that most users are just lazy, stupid or lazy andstupid, and no amount of improvement will change that. Not that their protest affected anything ... Tech. The director has developed and approved a new rule according to which written problem-improvement reports should be prepared on all client issues, and all reports should be sent upstairs. As exemplary workers, Dudley and his helpdesk techies sat down to write these reports.
