for those that don't know what I do, I do tech support as a day job....

... and I'm going to shoot this ****ing moron customer.

me: "click on the option that says connect to the internet"
dumbarse: "but there are two options..."
me: "ok well click on the one that says dialup to the internet."
him: "but I don't have a modem."

by this point I'm already losing patience, right?

me: "ok so how do you plan on getting connected to the internet???"
him: "i have a modem inside the computer"
me: "so you DO have a modem...."

grr....

him: "ok but it's not plugged into the phone socket."
me: "so why don't you PLUG IT IN???"
him: "ok..." *trundles off*

comes back
him: "oh but i don't have a cord to connect it to the phone socket."
me: "then you can't get connected to the internet. you need to go to the shops and buy yourself a phone cord so you can connect your modem to the phone socket. you should be able to get one from kmart."
...

****ing hell :devil :cuss: :cuss:

LOL

a buddy of mine did that for a while. He told me this story

friend:Ok, go to the top of the screen and click on "my computer"
idiot: Why would I click on your computer?
friend: No, the my computer icon on your computer
idiot: How did your computer get on my computer? Are you a hacker?

Yes.... that's the sort of stupidity I'm talking about here....

LOL I would have lost my job long ago.

I heard stories about people using the CD rom for sandwich and cup holders. totaly classic

Believe me, I really don't need this job that much either... but I could do with the extra cash. I very nearly lost it. I just really wanted to ask

"Whaddya mean?? How the hell do you expect to connect to the 'net, mate?? Electrical signals shooting in and out of your wall socket directly to your pc?? Mate that's WIRELESS not a ****en dialup (read: modem) connection."

Oh god I had a thousand questions I wanted to ask him. But none that would have allowed me to keep my job... *sigh*.

- The Jake

I wouldnt last long at that job, I would bust up laughing at some of these idiots......

LMAO Jake, I never get tired of your tech support stories

Was he an aboriginee or something? I guess that's what they mean by Ignorance is Bliss!

Yep...tech support rocks!

Aboriginie!!! LMAO@ Zen

****ing people. I went to the bank today and asked the teller to deposite two checks and cash one. So i put my card in and enter my pin. So she said that you don't have enough money to cash it. So i say thats fine do them all. See the looks at me and says so you want to deposite these two and take this one. Like i didn't just say deposite all of them. Plus after that i had to go to my school and wait in a two hour line to change a class.

LOOK YOU FREAKING OVERSIZED KOALA ANSWER MY ****ING PHONE CALLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU!!!!!!!!!!

I get it too, I do the same thing for work.

Ever get the old lady who thinks the mouse is a footpedal?
If you do tell Mrs. Barnes to please sell her computer.

I feel your pain Jake! My first job out of college was for an internet helpdesk. You'd be surprised how dumb some people are when it comes to computers. I remember this one ****er would always type wwwdot instead of www. Thank God i don't do tech support anymore!!!!

I had a lady who's names was Shawanda. To login to the isp i work for you need @ISP.net in your username. I told her that so he is putting username@shawanda.com. I was like no at Isp.net, "ok ok, @shawanda.com" I was like no at I-S-P.net" Finally after minutes of this I got her connected, as she hung up I couldnt help but say "Shawanda why her DSL doesnt work?"

LMAO!
