Maleko Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Tech: "Ridge Hall computer assistant; may I help you?" Caller: "Yes, well, I'm having trouble with WordPerfect." Tech: "What sort of trouble?" Caller: "Well, I was just typing along, and all of a sudden the words went away." Tech: "Went away?" Caller: "They disappeared." Tech: "Hmm. So what does your screen look like now?" Caller: "Nothing." Tech: "Nothing?" Caller: "It's blank; it won't accept anything when I type." Tech: "Are you still in WordPerfect, or did you get out?" Caller: "How do I tell?" Tech: "Can you see the "C" prompt on the screen?" Caller: "What's a sea-prompt?" Tech: "Never mind. Can you move the cursor around on the screen?" Caller: "There isn't any cursor: I told you, it won't accept anything I type." Tech: "Does your monitor have a power indicator?" Caller: "What's a monitor?" Tech: "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." Tech: "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." Tech: "Great! Follow the cord to the plug, and tell me if it's plugged into the wall." Caller: "...Yes, it is." Tech: "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." Tech: "Well, there are. I need you to look back there again and find the other cable." Caller: "...Okay, here it is." Tech: "Follow it for me, and tell me if it's plugged securely into the back of your computer." Caller: "I can't reach." Tech: "Uh huh. Well, can you see if it is?" Caller: "No." Tech: "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." Tech: "Dark?" Caller: "Yes-the office light is off, and the only light I have is coming in from the window." Tech: "Well, turn on the office light then." Caller: "I can't." Tech: "No? Why not?" Caller: "Because there's a power outage." Tech: "A power... 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?" CUST: "Well, yes, I keep them in the closet." Tech: "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?" Tech: "Yes, I'm afraid it is." Caller: "Well, all right then, I suppose. What do I tell them?" Tech: "Tell them you're too stupid to own a computer."
