Operator: "Ridge Hall, computer assistance; may I help you?"


Caller: "Yes, well, I'm having trouble with WordPerfect."


Operator: "What sort of trouble??"


Caller: "Well, I was just typing along, and all of a sudden the words went away."


Operator: "Went away?"


Caller: "They disappeared."


Operator: "Hmm So what does your screen look like now?"


Caller: "Nothing."


Operator: "Nothing??"


Caller: "It's blank; it won't accept anything when I type."


Operator: "Are you still in WordPerfect, or did you get out??"


Caller: "How do I tell?"


Operator: "Can you see the C: prompt on the screen??"


Caller: "What's a sea-prompt?"


Operator: "Never mind, can you move your cursor around the screen?"


Caller: "There isn't any cursor: I told you, it won't accept anything I type."


Operator: "Does your monitor have a power indicator??"


Caller: "What's a monitor?"


Operator: "It's the thing with the screen on it that looks like a TV. Does it have a little light that tells you when it's on??"


Caller: "I don't know."


Operator: "Well, then look on the back of the monitor and find where the power cord goes into it. Can you see that??"


Caller: "Yes, I think so."


Operator: "Great. Follow the cord to the plug, and tell me if it's plugged into the wall.


Caller: "Yes, it is."


Operator: "When you were behind the monitor, did you notice that there were two cables plugged into the back of it, not just one??"


Caller: "No."


Operator: "Well, there are. I need you to look back there again and find the other cable."


Caller: "Okay, here it is."


Operator: "Follow it for me, and tell me if it's plugged securely into the back of your computer."


Caller: "I can't reach."


Operator: "Uh huh. Well, can you see if it is??"


Caller: "No."


Operator: "Even if you maybe put your knee on something and lean way over??"


Caller: "Oh, it's not because I don't have the right angle - it's because it's dark."


Operator: "Dark??"


Caller: "Yes - the office light is off, and the only light I have is coming in from the window.


" Operator: "Well, turn on the office light then."


Caller: "I can't."


Operator: "No? Why not??"


Caller: "Because there's a power failure."


Operator: "A power......... A power failure? Aha, Okay, we've got it licked now.


Do you still have the boxes and manuals and packing stuff your computer came in??"


Caller: "Well, yes, I keep them in the closet."


Operator: "Good. Go get them, and unplug your system and pack it up just like it was when you got it. Then take it back to the store you bought it from."


Caller: "Really? Is it that bad?"


Operator: "Yes, I'm afraid it is."


Caller: "Well, all right then, I suppose. What do I tell them??"


Operator: "Tell them you're too f ---ing stupid to own a computer!!!!!"

Should this guy be fired?

This has to be one of the funniest things in a long time. I think this guy should have been promoted, not fired. This is a true story from the WordPerfect Helpline, which was transcribed from a recording monitoring the customer care department. Needless to say the Help Desk employee was fired; however, he/she is currently suing the WordPerfect organization for "Termination without Cause."





Actual dialogue of a former WordPerfect Customer Support employee.

Oi... I think the world is moving on too fast for some people. LOL!!!





Star for you!!!

Out of all the funny tech support stories ive read, i think this one is one of the best! But the techie's right - the user is waaay too stupid to use a computer.





sea prompt?!! XD





I recently recieved a doc that listed all of the shortcuts for the computer, and decided to forward it to the secretaries and PAs here where i work. Later, i heard one of them couldnt find the "winky" (Windows Key) button! Not brilliant, but pretty funny when you think about it!

Reply:Lol - die waarheid maak seer or the truth hurts
Reply:This too funny for words, but a couple of years ago it could have been me. I went to computer class to learn before I purchased and the first thing I was taught was the plug into the wall , then second is it turned on and third was check for power!!!! C-prompt was a sign that I lost the program and upon occasion I lost it!!! It makes you feel so smart. Try buying the computer professor 80.00 a whack thats what he could have used!!!!
Reply:Great joke, thanks for the laugh that made my colleagues think that I,m on some of the drugs that we discovered in a raid this morning!

Ok, I'll shame facedly tell you what I did the very first week I had the internet connected.......I didn't know much about it at the time..........


I thought some malicious person was trying to access my PC remotely.....So, not knowing what else to do, I rang my ISP in a panic ~ I explained that I kept getting messages that my PC was trying to connect to a 'remote system'...........It turned out that it was my PC trying to connect to my ISP's system to get to the net.............


I heard a great guffawff of laughter being held in on the other end of the phone as the poor man tried to explain the basics to me........I was very red-faced by the time I hung up the phone.

%26gt;I like that idea!


%26gt;


%26gt;When I worked as a customer service rep at the cable company, few things


%26gt;frustrated me more than vague customers.


%26gt;


%26gt;"Hi. My cable's not working right"


%26gt; [...]


%26gt;"How do I tell if my TV is on channel 3?"


%26gt;


%26gt;And on and on and on and on... this kind of call was typical of my day at


%26gt;the cable company





This reminds me of a call I got from a faculty member when I was


computer-assisting my way through college:





"Welch Hall computer assistant; may I help you?"


"Yes, well, I'm having trouble with WordPerfect."


[Instant voice-recognition: I know it's a particularly ditzy blonde French


professor with whom I have had prior dealings.]


"What sort of trouble, Dr. B?"


"Well, I was just typing along, and all of a sudden the words went


away."


"Went away?"


"They disappeared."


"Hmm. So what does your screen look like now?"


"Nothing."


"Nothing?"


"It's blank; it won't accept anything when I type."


"Are you still in WordPerfect, or did you get out?"


"How do I tell?"


[Uh-oh. Well, let's give it a try anyway.]


"Can you see the C:\%26gt; prompt on the screen?"


"What's a sea-prompt?"


[Uh-huh, thought so. Let's try a different tack.]


"Never mind. Can you move the cursor around on the screen?"


"There isn't any cursor: I told you, it won't accept anything I type."


[Ah--at least she knows what a cursor is. Sounds like a hardware problem.


I wonder if she's kicked out her monitor's power plug.]


"Does your monitor have a power indicator?"


"What's a monitor?"


"It's the thing with the screen on it that looks like a TV. Does it have


a little light that tells you when it's on?"


"I don't know."


"Well, then look on the back of the monitor and find where the power cord


goes into it. Can you see that?"


[sound of rustling and jostling]


[muffled] "Yes, I think so."


"Great! Follow the cord to the plug, and tell me if it's plugged into the


wall."


[pause]


"Yes, it is."


[Hmm. Well, that's interesting. I doubt she would have accidentally turned


it off, and I don't want to send her hunting for the power switch because


I don't know what kind of monitor she has and it's bound to have more than


one switch on it. Maybe the video cable is loose or something.]


"When you were behind the monitor, did you notice that there were two


cables plugged into the back of it, not just one?"


"No."


"Well, there are. I need you to look back there again and find the other


cable."


[rustle rustle]


[muffled] "Okay, here it is."


"Follow it for me, and tell me if it's plugged securely into the back of


your computer."


[still muffled] "I can't reach."


"Uh huh. Well, can you see if it is?"


[clear again] "No."


"Even if you maybe put your knee on something and lean way over?"


"Oh, it's not because I don't have the right angle--it's because


it's dark."


"Dark?"


"Yes--the office light is off, and the only light I have is coming


in from the window."


"Well, turn on the office light then."


"I can't."


"No? Why not?"


"Because there's a power outage."


"A p--!"


[ARGH!]





This woman was good friends with my supervisor, who was also a French


professor (still is, matter of fact--and in addition, she's now also my wife),


so I couldn't deal with her the way I really wanted to, and was forced to


explain sweetly and gently to her that computers needed power just like office


lights, and if the office lights were out, then the computer was too, and that


yes, if she hadn't saved her work she had probably lost everything she'd done


so far in WordPerfect. But I could still fantasize:





"A power outage? Aha! Okay, we've got it licked now. Do you still have the


boxes and manuals and packing stuff your computer came in?"


"Well, yes, I keep them in the closet."


"Good! Go get them, and unplug your system and pack it up just like it was


when you got it. Then take it back to the store you bought it from."


"Really? Is it that bad?"


"Yes, I'm afraid it is."


"Well, all right then, I suppose. What do I tell them?"


"Tell them you're TOO STUPID TO OWN A COMPUTER!"


[slam]





But that wouldn't have been a very nice thing to do, now would it?

Is this as good as the last?

There's always one. This has got to be one of the funniest things in a long time. I think this guy should have been promoted, not fired This is a true story from the Word Perfect Helpline, which was transcribed from a recording monitoring the customer care department. Needless to say the Help Desk employee was fired; however, he/she is currently suing the Word Perfect organization for "Termination without Cause".


Actual dialogue of a former WordPerfect Customer Support employee. (Now I know why they record these conversations! ) :





Operator: "Ridge Hall, computer assistance; may I help you?"


Caller: "Yes, well, I'm having trouble with WordPerfect. "


Operator: "What sort of trouble??"


Caller: "Well, I was just typing along, and all of a sudden the words went away."


Operator: "Went away?"


Caller: "They disappeared. "


Operator: "Hmm So what does your screen look like now?"


Caller: "Nothing."


Operator: "Nothing??"


Caller: "It's blank; it won't accept anything when I type."


Operator: "Are you still in WordPerfect, or did you get out??"


Caller: "How do I tell?"


Operator: "Can you see the C: prompt on the screen??"


Caller: "What's a sea-prompt?"


Operator: "Never mind, can you move your cursor around the screen?"


Caller: "There isn't any cursor: I told you, it won't accept anything I type."


Operator: "Does your monitor have a power indicator??"


Caller: "What's a monitor?"


Operator: "It's the thing with the screen on it that looks like a TV. Does it have a little light that tells you when it's on??"


Caller: "I don't know."


Operator: "Well, then look on the back of the monitor and find where the power cord goes into it. Can you see that??"


Caller: "Yes, I think so."


Operator: "Great. Follow the cord to the plug, and tell me if it's plugged into the wall.


Caller: "Yes, it is."


Operator: "When you were behind the monitor, did you notice that there were two cables plugged into the back of it, not just one??"


Caller: "No."


Operator: "Well, there are. I need you to look back there again and find the other cable."


Caller: "Okay, here it is."


Operator: "Follow it for me, and tell me if it's plugged securely into the back of your computer."


Caller: "I can't reach."


Operator: "Uh huh. Well, can you see if it is??"


Caller: "No."


Operator: "Even if you maybe put your knee on something and lean way over??"


Caller: "Oh, it's not because I don't have the right angle - it's because it's dark."


Operator: "Dark??"


Caller: "Yes - the office light is off, and the only light I have is coming in from the window.





Operator: "Well, turn on the office light then."


Caller: "I can't."


Operator: "No? Why not??"


Caller: "Because there's a power failure."


Operator: "A power....... .. A power failure? Aha, Okay, we've got it licked now.


Do you still have the boxes and manuals and packing stuff your computer came in??"


Caller: "Well, yes, I keep them in the closet."


Operator: "Good. Go get them, and unplug your system and pack it up just like it was when you got it. Then take it back to the store you bought it from."


Caller: "Really? Is it that bad?"


Operator: "Yes, I'm afraid it is."


Caller: "Well, all right then, I suppose. What do I tell them??"


Operator: "Tell them you're too f*%king stupid to own a computer!!!! !"

Is this as good as the last?

Poor Planning


This letter came from a poor old bricklayer who had suffered an accident. He has been besieged with the bureaucracy of


an insurance company in filling out the forms for a Workmen's Compensation claim. I would like to read to you a little bit


of this letter that he wrote back to the insurance company.





"I am writing in response to your request for additional information. In Block 10 of the accident reporting form I put, 'poor


planning', as the cause of my accident. You said in your letter that I should explain more fully, and I trust that the


following details will be sufficient.





I am a bricklayer by trade. On the day of the accident, I was working alone on the roof of a new six story building.


When I completed my work I discovered that I had about five hundred pounds of bricks left over.





Rather than carry the bricks down by hand, I decided to lower them in a barrel by using the pulley, which fortunately was


attached to the side of the building at the sixth floor. Securing the rope at ground level, I went up to the roof, slung the


barrel out, and loaded the bricks into it. Then I went back to the ground, untied the rope, holding it tightly to assure a


slow descent of the 500 pounds of brick.


You will note that in Block 11 of the accident reporting form that I weigh 135 pounds. Due to my surprise at being jerked


off the ground so suddenly, I lost my presence of mind, and forgot to let go of the rope. Needless to say, I proceeded at a


rather rapid rate up the side of the building. In the vicinity of the third floor, I met the barrel coming down. This explains


the fractured skull and broken collar bone.


Slowed only slightly, I continued my rapid ascent, not stopping until the fingers of my right hand were two knuckles deep


into the pulley. Fortunately, by this time I had regained my presence of mind and was able to hold tightly to the rope in


spite of my pain.





At approximately the same time, however, the barrel of bricks hit the ground, and the bottom fell out of the barrel. Devoid


of the weight of the bricks, the barrel now weighed approximately fifty pounds. I refer you again to my weight in Block 11.


As you might imagine, I began a rapid descent down the side of the building. In the vicinity of the third floor, I met the


barrel coming up. This accounts for the two fractured ankles and the lacerations of my legs and lower body.





The encounter with the barrel slowed me enough to lessen my injuries when I fell into the pile of bricks. And fortunately,


only three vertebrae were broken. I am sorry to report, however, that as I lay there on the bricks in pain, unable to stand,


and watching the empty barrel six floors above me, I again lost my presence of mind and let go of the rope.
