1. Customer buys a laptop with Win Me on it.
2. Customer buys Win2K upgrade.
3. Customer reads web site, where it says his application recovery CDs will not work under 2000.
4. Customer does a fresh install, and not a "clean" install, which would have allowed him to dual-boot between Me and 2K
5. Customer now has 2k only on his system.
6. Customer tries application recovery CD anyway.
7. Recovery CD tell him "Screw you, you Win 2k hippie!"
8. It's MY fault?
Some people should be charged for the oxygen they use.
1) "We accept Discover, Wal*Mart and Sam's Charge Only" signs are posted throughout the store. Literally throughout the store. You can't ENTER the store without seeing one. You can't PICK UP AN ITEM without seeing one.
2) Customer waits in line for ten minutes, waits an additional six minutes for me to scan all her items (without bothering to prepare her method of payment, another issue in and of itself) and tries to pay with a Visa.
3) This is my fault how?
People are stupid.
It's your fault because a whole lot of people have lost sight of something called 'personal responsibility'... sad, but prevalent.
/em continues hugging Mighteon until the bad people stop... this could take a while...

* is hugged
Don't worry... I'll stand being hugged as long as you want... I work until 9:30 EST, though..
I needed a hug anyway. 
*offers Mighteon chocolate*
*more hugs*

And I was all like 'Oh yeah?' and Kel was all like:
*realizes that hugging alone isn't enough...**offers Mighteon chocolate*
*more hugs*
Hugs are nice, and while they're not all that I need, they are welcome.
/me keeps hugging, not because she's Kel, but because she's in range...
Feel better?

Reminds me of a classic Futurama moment:
Store Clerk: How will you be paying sir?
Fry: I'll use my Visa card.
Clerk: Visa hasn't existed for a thousand years.
Fry: I'll use Mastercard then.
Clerk: Mastercard hasn't been around for 900 years.
Fry: I'll use my Discover card then.
Clerk: Ooooooo, sorry. We don't take Discover.
2)customer gets instructions on operating pressure washer, and is told to keep it upright
3)customer is helped to load pressure washer into car, and it is put in upright
4) customer calls and says it won't start, on closer inspection there is oil in the carb cause it was not kept upright. Customer is asked, and explans that it was only half in his truck, so he put it on its side so it wouldn;t fall out.
5)I get to drive 3 hours each way to replace the damed thing in rush hour traphic, and end up getting home 2 hours late. This was a weekly occurance at least.

I Work In a Sears Service center...I bet we can top you.
Had a cust come in. "Won't start i just had it tuned up"..Oaky we will look at it, its in warrenty. take it out of the car..It was in sidesways. Tech goes well it won't start becuse all the oil is in the carb now, i told you not to put it insideways when you picked it up. give you three guess how the cust puts it in their car again..
Or "It won't run, I just bought it", tech open oil spout. There is no oil in it. And no we won't fix it, tis abuse. cust whines "Sears is such a rip off le me see you manager!" Manger goes "WTF why are yo bothering me, you just ruined ou machine, didn you not notice the big tag attched to the more tellingyou to add oil, we even give you a bottle of oil to fill it. Go away"
Better is when I get ppl asking how to turn off the safty eyes on Garage doors after I tell them it's a federal law that requires them to be put on...
But hey, be glad this isn't as bad as it could be....
The preceeding statement was false..
