Reflections On Stupid People
The world is full of stupid people. That's obvious to anyone. But it becomes especially obvious when you work in tech support.
However, we should not underestimate the value of stupid people. Without stupid people, there would be no smart people, only average ones. The whole world would be a verifiable Lake Wobegone.
The Customer Is Hardly Ever Right
"Hello! Blah blah blah!! No I want it know!!! Blah blah blah! I wanna speak to a supervisor!!"
Routers
Fee fee fi fi fo fo fouters, boy oh boy do I fucking HATE routers!!
Stupid People Redux
Most of the people who call in to tech support have at least a modicum of intelligence. However, there are some that you just want to tell:
"Listen. Take your ass down to the local community college and sign up for some computer classes. Okay?"
Even with all the frustration...
Those that have jobs should be grateful for their employment.
