Actually you make a good point. I was never a customer service rep, an 
SE or CE, but I did have to make some field trips. I learned not to ask 
"did you do this". I was taught to ask the tech on site to open up the 
skins and tell me what the rev level of a particular board is, or in 
Linux and Unux, run things like uname and tell me what they say. I once 
flew down to Florida to trouble shoot a system because the SE down 
there lied.
