I do the elderly guy who can't remember what they just told me, taking several minutes to type in one line on the computer. Finally, when the computer supposedly has a screen pop up (not really) they ask me what it says and I tell them "It says this guys been stringing you along to set a new record for how long he can waste your time while not actually typing anything into the computer". Actually had one guy laugh and wish me a nice day.
