You sicko!!!
Leave poor IT alone!!!
Chances are the conversation went something like this:
Dan: "My %#$ phone cord broke, get me a new one."
IT tech: "OK, I need you to unplug the cord from the base unit for 30 seconds then plug it back in."
Dan: "Why? Its completely shot to hell."
IT tech: "OK, have you plugged it back in? Are you still experiencing the same problems?"
Dan: "Yes you moron, the cord is frayed and split in ten different places."
IT tech: "OK, let me try and send a test call. It may be our network that is experiencing problems."
Dan : "Will you put the lame scenario cards away and listen to me you idiot. My phone cord is a shot-to-hell POS. All I need is a new one."
IT tech: "OK, in that case I'll need to transfer you to a level 2 tech and he should be able to figure out how we can solve this. Please hold."
No this is probably how it went
Dan: (hmmm my phone cord is broken. I wonder who fixes that) (well computers are made out of electric thingys so tech support must do it)
Dan: Hi tech support my phone cord is broken.
IT: Thats nice how on earth is that computer related?
IT Boss: Just go switch it out so he'll stop complaining.
Dan: thanks IT!!
IT: (Grabs cord from box sitting right next to Dan's desk. Then has to hook it up for Dan because Dan can't figure out the technological marvel that is plugging in a phone cord. Only someone with IT experience could know such a complicated thing.)

IT goes and smokes a cigarette
Dan forgets how to use mouse
It's a mouse Dan, not a foot pedal.
