6. Why does this remind me of....

This reminds me of the movie "Airplane 2."
Woman on plane: "The computer went bezerk and killed one of the crew! What should we do?" Captain: "Hmmm.....better consult the computer!" Narf!  |

14. Yeah, and they're too stupid to put a message on their tech line
|
After waiting ten minutes for a tech, all she could tell me was it was a nationwide outage. Gee, thanks - why not put a recording on during the hold to that effect rather than forcing your customers to listen to all the messages about getting help for your connection problems over the internet?
I spent all day yesterday trying out my new printer's features - I LOVE duplexing! |
