I was literally just about to post this. I refuse to make my password less secure though - and security questions really are just "alternate passwords".
I've never had a problem but I have had a few reps who are trying to not act really surprised. I've had one instance of someone trying to stifle laughter (of the "You can't be serious") kind. Taking security seriously is a rare thing. :(
They usually stop me after the 8th or so character. I'd be concerned but if any potential social engineer has the first 8 characters they likely have the full string anyways so stopping early makes both our jobs easier.
