Sarah is having trouble on her PC with her Outlook emails, so she telephones Nigel the computer expert and asks him to come over and sort it out for her. As soon as he arrives, it takes Nigel only a few minutes to solve the problem. He then gives Sarah an invoice for £25, his minimum service charge, and turns to leave. As he’s walking away, she shouts after him, "So? What was wrong with it, Nigel?"
"It was an ‘ID ten T’ error," he replies.
Sarah doesn’t want to appear stupid, but nonetheless asks him, "An ‘ID ten T’ error? What's that...in case I need to fix it again?"
Nigel grins and replies, "Haven't you heard of an ‘ID ten T’ error before?"
"No," she replies.
"So write it down," he says, "and then I think you'll figure it out."
So Sarah writes out ..... I D 1 0 T
PS She used to like Nigel, but doesn’t anymore.
