Subject: THIS IS A MUST READ;;;; VERY FUNNY

transcribed from a recording

Needless to say the Help Desk

> PC Tech "Ridge Hall computer assistance; may I
help you?"
>
> Customer "Yes, well, I'm having trouble with
WordPerfect."
>
> PC Tech "What sort of trouble?"
>
> Customer "Well, I was just typing along, and
all of a sudden the words
went

>

> PC Tech "Went away?"
>
> Customer "They disappeared."
>
> PC Tech "Hmm. So what does your screen look
like now?"
>
> Customer "Nothing."
>
> PC Tech "Nothing?"
>
> Customer "It's blank; it won't accept anything
when I type."
>
> PC Tech "Are you still in WordPerfect, or did
you get out?"
>
> Customer "How do I tell?"
>
> PC Tech "Can you see the C: prompt on the
screen?"
>
> Customer "What's a sea-prompt?"
>
> PC Tech "Never mind, can you move your cursor
around the screen?"
>
> Customer "There isn't any cursor: I told you,
it won't accept anything I
> type."
>
> PC Tech "Does your monitor have a power
indicator?"
>
> Customer "What's a monitor?"
>
> PC 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?"
>
> Customer "I don't know."
>
> PC Tech "Well, then look on the back of the
monitor and find where the
> power cord goes into it. Can you see that?"
>
> Customer "Yes, I think so."
>
> PC Tech "Great. Follow the cord to the plug,
and tell me if it's plugged
> into the wall."
>
> Customer "Yes, it is."
>
> PC Tech "When you were behind the monitor, did
you notice that there were
> two cables plugged into the back of it, not
just one?"
>
> Customer "No."
>
> PC Tech "Well, there are. I need you to look
back there again and find
the
> other cable."
>
> Customer "Okay, here it is."
>
> PC Tech "Follow it for me, and tell me if it's
plugged securely into the
> back of your computer."
>
> Customer "I can't reach."
>
> PC Tech "Uh huh. Well, can you see if it is?"
>
> Customer "No."
>
> PC Tech "Even if you maybe put your knee on
something and lean way over?"
>
> Customer "Oh, it's not because I don't have the
right angle - it's because
> it's dark."
>
> PC Tech "Dark?"
>
> Customer "Yes - the office light is off, and
the only light I have is
> coming in from the window."
>
> PC Tech "Well, turn on the office light then."
>
> Customer "I can't."
>
> PC Tech "No? Why not?"
>
> Customer "Because there's a power failure."
>
> PC Tech "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?"
>
> Customer "Well, yes, I keep them in the closet.
>
> PC Tech "Good. Go get them, and unplug your
system and pack it up just

to the store you bought it

>
> Customer "Really? Is it that bad?"
>
> PC Tech "Yes, I'm afraid it is."
>
> Customer "Well, all right then, I suppose.
What do I tell them?"
>
> PC Tech "Tell them you're too stupid to own a
computer."
