words cant describe them

and get him to jam a pencil into something important. You could see the writing on the wall.

It all comes down to liability issues. And as fun as the above suggestion might be the guy would then have a valid reason to sue VRS and the company he works for. Not a good thing to be getting yourself into.

[Tigress]

I used to get this stuff all the time when I worked in Geek Squad. 90% of the time, it wasn't something we could fix over the phone. The other 10%, the customer was either so stupid or uncooperative (or both) that we couldn't walk them through how to fix it. Then, we would get the inevitable: "I BOUGHT IT FROM YOU! YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO FIX IT! THIS IS BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE!"

Eventually, I just learned to automatically say, "Bring it in and we'll take a look at it." If they didn't want to drive "all the way" from whatever po-dunk town they came from, too bad.

[ralerin]

But...wha...huh? GAH!

*watches brain fly out the window*

[jjllbb]

WTF?

Seriously, you have the most entitled-bastard customers ever! How do you stand it?

I second that!!!!

[CrazedClerkthe2nd]

See if it were me, I'd give him a detailed set of instructions which would include formatting his hard drive, but I'm evil that way.

[chainedbarista]

kiss my ass? hmm, well, pick a spot, because he's ALL ass.

[Blade]

Makes you wish that stupidity hurt, hurt very badly...

Ah, but stupidity does hurt, it just hurts the wrong people...


It's long been my theory that molecules of stupidity are heavier than other molecules, which is why having them jammed into your brain makes your head hurt (and also why ditzy people always seem so "bubbly"- their heads literally get lighter every time they speak).

[Salted Grump]

Yeah, but Ditzy people are generally harmless. The Anus Munchkin Guild that seems to be taking up residence in VRS' Phone system is, for lack of a better descriptor, an Epic waste of space, skin and air, and frankly, should be shot out of a cannon into the sun before they can sodomize more innocent brains with their entitlement and whining.

[depechemodefan]

yeah, my brain wanted to escape my skull. It's very afraid of the asssucks that vrs deals with.

*pets brain, try to calms it*

Last week this guy called the library:

Guy: I have a new laptop and I want to hook up my old computer to it. It's from 2005. Can you help me?
Me: you probably should contact the company that makes the printer.
Guy:Can you give me the number to the company that makes it?
Me: what's the company?
Guy: Lexmark
Me: *Looks up Lexmark* I'm on their website and they don't provide a tech. support number (or maybe it's not toll free, I forget). You can go to their website and follow the steps to get your printer hooked up.
Guy: nah. Can you give me the number to Best Buy?

[Bliss]

Depeche, do you realize if you guys continue to patronize every moron asking for the most innane things, eventually you'll do all their brain work for them?

Do you know what that means? It means their brains will rot, if they've not already, and your brains will be large and juicy from all the workout! What will happen when the zombies come? they'll head straight for the library!!

And then, maybe your managers will insist you attend to the new patrons...

[XCashier]

Makes you wish that stupidity hurt, hurt very badly...

Ah, but stupidity does hurt, it just hurts the wrong people...

Yeah, it's like every time the stupid say or do something, everyone around them gets an excruciating stress headache, while the stupid are blissfully unaware of their own idiocy. VRS's customers are like the Typhoid Mary of stupidity.
