Breaking Bad Passwords
Computer Repair | Working
| July 26, 2014
(I work for a computer repair shop, and it is not uncommon for customers to forget to give us a password, or give us a wrong one. To save us a phone call, we try to guess the password in this instance.)
Coworker: “I can’t get in. The hint is ‘ice’. I’ve tried ‘frozen water’ and ‘cold’.”
Me: “Have you tried anything relating to drugs?”
Coworker: “I’ve tried ‘drugs’, I’ve tried ‘meth’, I’ve tried ‘speed’…”
(We burst into laughter and he realises how that sounded out loud.)
Coworker: “I haven’t tried DOING those.”
