Makes me laugh...

Although I honest to goodness have the intentions to blog on a variety of topics, I have the feeling that this blog will serve mainly for my ranting and raving and discussing the things that dumb people do. That being said, here is my Top 5 list of things dumb people have said to me over the phone at work.

Oh, and in case you didn’t know, I’m a computer technician.

- - “I’m dumb, can you help me?”


- - “I’m 65, retired, and drive a 1975 Chevy. Now, I don’t know what you drive, and frankly, it’s none of my business, but I can guarantee you that I can fix my truck cheaper than you can fix yours. Now, I tell you this because I want you to know what kind of computer I need.”

- - “Oh, so I need to plug it into the wall outlet too?”

- - “I dun tol’ my man he shouldn’ be lookin at them naked pictures.”

- - “Does the warranty cover spillin mah beer on the unit?”

I’m honestly sometimes glad that I get to talk to some of these people. Even though it is oftentimes extremely trying on my patience, it does serve as a source of entertainment that can last anywhere from a few seconds to forever. I have to do something to stay sane, right?

I'm quite sure you have the Universe's permission to laugh at the stupid people as long as you also help them with their spilled beer, naked pictures and all the other viruses that infect their electronic life. Keep up the good work.

That's really staggering. I mean. I mean. It's like you make it up. But you don't so, I mean. Wow.
