@travisdh1 You're welcome.
And that guy is completely insane. He wants his teachers to call the receptionist who then has to decipher what is wrong from the user who apparently can't explain it in writing.
Then the receptionist has to determine how to explain it in writing to the help desk, who then replies to the user directly!
WTF. . .
If you're a "good sized school" you should have dedicated helpdesk people. This seems like it would be a good task to move to the helpdesk and let the office manager actually do their job.
And while I agree, a proper help desk should already be able to collect this information. Which the portal can do, if it's built appropriately.
I've worked a Spiceworks helpdesk where all the pertinent fields were required, and we still got crap helpdesk tickets... It would take 5 or 6 back and forth replies to get enough info out of folks to actually start working on their tickets.

If there were a single image on the internet that captured my company this would be it

@wirestyle22 Sadly that picture sums up a lot of places.

@DustinB3403 This too

Rubbing alcohol would be my guess in what started that.

Posting for the posterity of it.

They treated us like garbage when we had a death in the family. We already had a flight with them and all they had to do to be nice was give us a deal on changing the flight time. We didn't even need a cheap flight, just a change of a few days on the return date. They wouldn't even let us change the date, it was "full price for new tickets, period." It was far, FAR cheaper to fly with a better airline than to use the tickets we already had with United.
