I was having trouble with my computer. So I called Richard, the 11 year old next door whose bedroom looks like Mission Control and asked him to come over.

Richard clicked a couple of buttons and solved the problem. As he was walking away, I called after him,‘So, what was wrong?’

He replied, ‘It was an ID ten T error.’

I didn’t want to appear stupid, but nonetheless inquired, ‘An, ID ten T error? What’s that? In case I need to fix it again.’

Richard grinned. ‘Haven’t you ever heard of an ID ten T error  
before?’’

No,’ I replied.

‘Write it down,’ he said, ‘and I think you’ll figure it out.’

So I wrote down: I D 1 0 T

I used to like the little shit.

You think that’s funny? I did this for real.

I do desktop support/level not 1 (lol) help desk/networking for an insurance company.

One day one of our security analysts comes down and has an issue which was user caused.

I told him, “It was just an I D 10 T error.”

“Really? What’s that?”

“Write it down.”

_writes it down_ “I don’t get it.”

I later saw the sticky note he wrote on. It said, “IDTENT”. No wonder why he didn’t get it.
