I've written a lot of instructions/documents. I've learned to include do this, "not this", here and there.

I don't do much end user support anymore. The extent of that is O365 permissions. Every time I grant someone access to a shared mailbox or another's mailbox I always tell them "it will appear below your own mailbox, not inbox".

I had a customer complaining about random reboots every day.

Went through the usual suspects and found nothing.

I was on the phone with her and she suddenly said "oh.....never mind" and said the tip of her shoe was hitting the reset button.

Reminds me of the woman who called 911 and said her battery was dead and she was locked in her car. She was beside herself with stress. The 911 operator told her to turn and look to her left, pull the button up to unlock the door.

Just curious. What’s the most damage you’ve gotten or seen someone land in one sortie in a bomber?

When you say "sortie" do you mean one real sortie or one AH3 sortie with unlimited rearms?

Back in the day I would take a single mossie with a 4k bomb and 2 500lbers. I would bomb a city, rearm, and bomb another city for a couple hours and rack up some ridiculous damage totals. I'm not sure if this is the "sortie" you're talking about or if you mean a single run with drones.

I remember a specific one where I got intercepted by 2 262s that appeared to not like me bringing milk to the babies. I climbed as high as I could and they were having problems getting up to me. I headed for a base near our strats (with 163s available) The 262s ended up chasing me for something like 6 sectors during which my fuel state became critical. I even shut down one engine in route. I don't remember the specifics but I know I was very close to the base but out of fuel when they got me. As soon as I died I grabbed a 163 and took off. One of the 262s was no longer there. I'm not sure if he was out of fuel or just didn't want to fly the 6 sectors back to base. I chased the other one down with my 163 and killed him in a brief fight. Was a bunch of fun.

I never bothered to look into these threads, because I never had any interest in the score system and who was best in this or that.. Mostly because I always thought people that get their names in these lists are people that only play it safe, timid, run from fights, use picking tactics or in some way or form game the game to get their high score. So what I try to do is sabotage my own score by getting into all sorts of bad situations, dying more than I land, never use attack mode for deacking, only fly one plane as long as ENY allows it.. etc.. But I have fun, and that has been my drive all these years. I fly to have fun, if I don't have fun I log. Simple as that. And I rarely ever look into this forum because I am not really a forum guy, I just like to play the game.

But here I am, scrolling, reading random posts. And then I find my name listed as a ranked pilot?! Not just that, but as a tour top ranked Jug M pilot?!? Wtf??
