    I honestly thought I have seen every stupid thing a person can do to a phone.

    I WAS VERY WRONG

    I just sent a friend back home with where to buy and instruction on how to
    replace the LCD on his Bold 9000.

    Why? This moron thought the battery cover looked a bit dull and needed
    to be "refreshed."

    His solution? Pour baby oil on it WHILE STILL ATTACHED TO THE PHONE.
    Within minutes the oil bled in between the screen and made this horrendous
    streak across the entire LCD.

    I have to get new friends

    What's worse is he wanted to know if "the rice thing" would help. I came 2 seconds
    away from slapping his a__ to sleep.

    Customer: Hi, good afternoon, this is Martha, I can't print. Every time I try, it says 'Can't find printer'. I've even lifted the printer and placed it in front of the monitor, but the computer still says he can't find it...

    ============ == =

    Customer: I have problems printing in red...
    Tech support: Do you have a color printer?

    Tech support: Are you sure it's plugged into the computer?

    Tech support: Pick up your keyboard and walk 10 paces back.
    Customer:! OK
    Tech support: Did the keyboard come with you?

    Tech support: That means the keyboard is not plugged in. Is there another keyboard?
    Customer: Yes, there's another one here. Ah...that one does work...

    ============ ===

    ============ ===

    Tech support: How may I help you?
    Customer: I'm writing my first e-mail.
    Tech support: OK, and what seems to be the problem?
    Customer: Well, I have the letter 'a' in the address, but how do I get the circle around it?

    A woman customer called the Canon help desk with a problem with her printer.
    Tech support: Are you running it under windows?
    Customer: 'No, my desk is next to the door, but that is a good point. The man sitting in the cubicle next to me is under a window, and his printer is working fine.'

    ============ ===

    And last but not least...

    Tech support: 'Okay Colin, let's press the control and escape keys at the same time. That brings up a task list in the middle of the screen. Now type the letter 'P' to bring up the Program Manager.'
    Customer: I don't have a P.
    Tech support: On your keyboard, Colin.
    Customer: What do you mean?
    Tech support: 'P'.....on your keyboard, Colin. Customer: I'M NOT GOING TO DO THAT!!

    Good stuff Laura

    I swear these people should be thanking the Lord that breathing and heartbeat
    are not functions that require conscious effort.

    I think that one does qualify for the Darwin award! I hope he does not have any kids, or if he does that they take after his wife, not him!

    He does not and that is a very very good thing

    Oil spill... Does this friend work for BP?
    No, but if I forward this story to their Human Resources Department
    they'd probably hire him on the spot.
