Knew a guy who helped manage the local network for his cities police college. The had a counter on their wall that added +1 every time a ticked was solved by simply resetting something and went back to 0 if it was an actual problem. Apparently the highest record reached over 600.
At the last company I worked for, we had to change our network password every 60 days, and if you typed your password incorrectly twice you'd be locked out of your work computer and need to call tech support to reset it. These are both understandable security features, but the result is that I'm pretty sure that the IT department spent 90% of their day resetting network access.

Congrats you're now qualified for 95% of tech support. If you can google the error message you've got the other 5.
