Recently at work we received a defect report ticket addressed the tech team saying:
<Support 1>:
<Support 1>:
When documents are added to the <Client> system, pdf attachments are coming out upside down.
Referred the matter to <Account Manager>, who confirmed this is a technical issue.

For obvious reasons, I cannot show you the screen shot, but it effectively shows an upside down document.
One of the most enlightened members of the tech team followed up:

Then Support comes back.
<Support 2>
D'oh. Lesson learned: Don't trust <Account Manager>'s technical issue opinions.
