Someone send this to me today, laughter is still the best medicine when you have a stressful week. Everything is due this Friday, 20th Oct. 😥

=================================
Tech support: What kind of computer do you have?
Female customer: A white one…

=================================
Customer: Hi, this is Celine. I can’t get my diskette out.
Tech support: Have you tried pushing the Button?
Customer: Yes, sure, it’s really stuck.
Tech support: That doesn’t sound good; I’ll make a note.
Customer: No, wait a minute… I hadn’t inserted it yet… it’s still
on my desk… sorry….

=================================
Tech support: Click on the ‘my computer’ icon on to the left of the screen.
Customer: Your left or my left?

=================================
Tech support: Good day. How may I help you?
Customer: Hello… I can’t print.
Tech support: Would you click on “start” for me and…
Customer: Listen pal; don’t start getting technical on me! I’m not Bill Gates.

=================================
Customer: Hi, good afternoon, this is Martha, I can’t print. Every
time I try, it says ‘Can’t find printer’. I’ve even lifted the printer
and placed it in front of the monitor, but the computer still says he
can’t find it…

=================================
Customer: I have problems printing in red…
Tech support: Do you have a color printer?
Customer: Aaaah………………..thank you.

=================================
Customer: My keyboard is not working anymore.
Tech support: Are you sure it’s plugged into the computer?
Customer: No. I can’t get behind the computer.
Tech support: Pick up your keyboard and walk 10 paces back.
Customer: OK
Tech support: Did the keyboard come with you?
Customer: Yes
Tech support: That means the keyboard is not plugged in. Is there
another keyboard?
Customer: Yes, there’s another one here. Ah…that one does work…

capital letter V as n Victor, the number 7.

=================================
Customer: can’t get on the Internet.

Tech support: What anti-virus program do you use?
Customer: Netscape.
Tech support: That’s not an anti-virus program.

on my computer, but every time I move the mouse, it disappears.

get the circle around it?

=================================
A woman customer called the Canon help desk with a problem with her printer.

The man sitting in the cubicle next to me is under a window, and his
printer is working fine.”

=================================
And last but not least….
