  LOL, just this past week I had a quick conversation with 'The Helpdesk Gestapo' when they came upstairs to install a new software package on my laptop:
  
  helpdesk guy: Oh, so you don't use Outlook for mail then?
  me: Er, no, I prefer Mozilla thanks.
  helpdesk guy: Well you do know that Outlook is the corporate standard and we don't support any other software.
  me: Yes I'm well aware of the corporate standards with regards to Microsoft software.
  helpdesk guy: Well, you really need to use Outlook going forward.

    At some point last year we were given a fancy four-color booklet titled "[CompanyNameWithheld] Antivirus Quick Guide". I pinned it to my cube front wall and used a black marker to make it even quicker: "Step 1: Don't Use Microsoft Products."
