Following is the contents of a conversation between a client and a
representative of Word Perfect support desk.
This is a genuine text, from a record of a telephony system.
The client support employee has been fired, and the client is
now prosecuting the company for insulting and not providing support
according to the contract between them:

"WordPerfect Technical Desk, may I help you?"

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

"What sort of trouble?"

"Well, I was 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 that I type."

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

"How do I tell?"

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

"What's a sea-prompt?"

"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!"

"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?"

"Yes, I think so."

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

"......Yes, it is."

"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."

"......Okay, here it is."

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

"I can't reach."

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

"No."

"Even if you 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."

"Why not?"

"Because there's a power outage."

"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 it?"

"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. What do I tell them?"

"Tell them you're too damn stupid to own a computer."

E-MAIL ERRORS

It's wise to remember how easily this wonderful technology can be misused,
sometimes unintentionally, with serious consequences.

Consider the case of the Illinois man who left the snow-filled streets of
Chicago for a vacation in Florida. His wife was on a business trip and was
planning to meet him there the next day. When he reached his hotel, he
decided to send his wife a quick e-mail. Unable to find the scrap of paper
on which he had written her e-mail address, he did his best to type it in from
memory.

Unfortunately, he missed one letter, and his note was directed instead to
an elderly preacher's wife, whose husband had passed away only the day before.
When the grieving widow checked her e-mail, she took one look at the
monitor, let out a piercing scream, and fell to the floor in a dead faint.

At the sound, her family rushed into the room and saw this note on the
screen:

Dearest Wife,

Just got checked in. Everything prepared for your arrival tomorrow.

PS. Sure is damn hot down here.

Haha good stuff evil, Its so frustrating dealing with people that are computer stupid like that. This lady called the other day becuase she couldnt hook up her keyboard. I am like "the keyboard goes into the purple outlet on the back of your computer!" She couldnt get the keyboard hooked up. So later on she comes in with the keyboard and all the pins in the ps2 connector are mashed down, ARGH!
