Once I got called to the office of a co-worker (let’s call him Joe User) to help him figure out his username (he knew his password).

* Me: “Your username is ‘Joe User’.”

* Him: “Unacceptable! How much am I supposed to remember? I can only remember a certain number of things.”

* Me: “Wouldn’t one of those things be your name?”

* Him: “I guess I’ll have to write it down.”

He proceeded to write his own name on a sticky note and attach it to his monitor.
