I thought this was funny?

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 stupid to own a computer!!!!!';I thought this was funny?
Lol! Id say the same as her to be fair!I thought this was funny?
Lol that is sooooo funny!
funy
haha =]
ROLMAO............................... I can't stop laughing!!!!! Star for you!!!!! OMG!!! =)) You're right! He should have gotten promoted!
OMG that is funny!! I would do something dumb like that!!
omg thats got to be the funniest thing i've ever read!!! can u post anymore of these? lol xD
That was frustratingly funny...lol
Too funny!


lol
wow this was a funny one!what a dumb caller i probably would make the same mistale ,lolll
Give that operator the job back.
I don't know why the operator would insult her like that;--I've been having the same problem with my computer every time the power goes off.---But I never had to return it to the store, because when the power comes back on, it magically starts working again.---I think it just takes a little patience, and you must pay your electric bill a little more often.


Since I've been paying my bill every other month, I never have that problem anymore.


Baffling isn't it?


Maybe it had something to do with the fact that I changed my hair from blond to brunette.


Hope this helps.
Funny but I seriously hope that you copy/pasted that and didn't type the whole thing out.
Wow that was good :-) :-)
LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
