Speaking as the writer of the technical support scripts, it's not as easy as you think.
First, there is never a good way to search for articles and find them every time given the abundance of different. symptoms.
Second, the trees/flowcharts are never going to be perfect and are never going apply to the symptom 100%.
Third, most calls are spyware or OS. You just can't make a script for that kind of thing. Remove startup items, repair, reinstall is usually the way you go if you can't get a customer to download Spybot or Adaware as it's the fastest. I mean, sure, we put things in there like "Delete the winsock and winsock2 keys and reinstall TCP/IP over itself" but do most people want to do that? Not really.
This totally had me fooled until the Rock Hudson part. The Southern Baptist portion of the Religious Right-Wing party would hate to see Chet drinking. I think he should be the one giving something to the boys in their back doors.
Obviously you don't understand Dell's strategy in outsourcing. There are many jobs that cannot and will not be transferred to India and I happen to fill one of those jobs. Many of us do.
There's only one reply to your well though out response:
I make more than I would at Joe's. And if I made tips at Joe's I'd not report them. I'm also in a higher tax bracket than the greasy-faced student who works at Joe's, which means the government makes more per worker than Joe's. Also, the govt. isn't spending for head start, medicaid, WIC, and suchlike as they are for many Joe's employees (and WalMart employees).
I mean, shit. Look at WalMart. They're employing Americans left and right but dammit, they're paying barely anything and offering no benefits. Look at how much the govt. spends per WalMart worker just to help keep their heads above water. At least Dell can give out the shit work to people who are paid peanuts and like it.
There was a woman who slept with a donkey. The donkey woke up in the middle of the night and pissed and shat all over her room. When she woke up in the morning the donkey had kicked open the door and escaped. The woman said to herself "That's the last time I go looking for a piece of ass at the Grand Canyon".
Ok, it wasn't funny but I made it up just for you,friend.
I have. Have you seen the article in Wired about those estimates being high because of the way the EPA tests? My estimate was very conservative using real-world, city miles with the damn CHOKE on. The EPA estimate is 70 MPG for my motorcycle and that's using a carburator.
I think that's the secret to success as a motorcyclist. Drive like a rabidly paranoid conspiracy theorist who believes that everybody on the road woke up that day with the express urge to take their big box of death and personally see to it that you end up as a patch of grease and some plastic and metal spread out over the road. It's not far from the truth in any case, and it makes you quite a better driver.
I drive a motorcycle to work every day. A 250cc bike gets more than 50 miles per gallon and is nice and flexible. Also, the insurance costs about $100 a year. For protection from the weather you can have a cowl, windshield, and rain gear. Stop whining because it's not everything a car is and do something to make things better. Besides, it's fun!
The best fix for Winsock corruption in XP is to delete the Winsock and Winsock2 keys from the registry, reboot, and install TCP/IP over itself (you have to browse to c:\windows\inf to get it to show up in the list) but it works nearly every time. I've been having techs do it for about a month now and it's been very successful.
But it got boring so I looked at my fingers for a while and forgot what I'd been doing in the first place. Then I saw some lint on the desk and cleaned it up for a few seconds...
or does Ballmer's quote sound like "Ms. Couric, the only thing I find wrong with this interview is that I have not yet had butt-sex with your mother"?
It's like the scariest thing most people could hear. If Microsoft doesn't burn your retinas for a few seconds after each click on a link he's not doing his job. That's scary on so many levels.
I see you're listing the:D command. That looks like a vi command but I don't know what it means. Is it case sensitive? To end this message I'm going to issue the colon-p command::P
Actually, the term shouldn't have a bad meaning to gay people as it's only an insult to breeders. If someone calls me gay, I don't like it because I'm not. And I don't get naked with other men when it's Happy Time. But a gay person does get naked with other people of the same sex during Happy Time and that's not an insult to them. It's only an insult because you're being accused of something that you're not.
If you mistake an Army guy a Navy guy he might be insulted. Because he's not a Navy guy. He doesn't get naked with other people of the same sex during Happy Time so that's offensive to him (ok, just kidding). But seriously, if I were a gay guy and someone told me that something I did was "so gay" I'd tell them that I did it on purpose because I'm gay through and through so all the things I do are "so gay".
but since she knew about the tickets already (and had bought me tix to the Barenaked Ladies) I kept three Valentines day cards as a surprise. I hid them all over the house along with clues that pointed to other clues and then a card (make sense?) and then gave her the first clue with a kiss. She totally loved the game and we had a bunch of laughs and kisses. All three cards are on display on the mantle and she's told her mother, her aunt, and my mother about them and the fun she had finding them.
I ride a small motorcycle year-round and carry my laptop to work every day. As time has gone by, the amount of stuff that goes with me has shrunk:
Laptop
I get by easily without extras. I have a brick both at work and at home and the laptop has integrated wireless. I never run into a time when I need anything else.
Frankly, there isn't much water in the bathroom when I'm browsing the web and what water there is, I'm carefully blocking with my butt cheeks. I do concur, however, that it's a bad idea to shower or bathe with your laptop.
I have dish and I love the fact that they cost so much less than Time Warner cable in the Austin area. I recently moved into an apartment and unfortunately it faces the wrong way apparently and I can't get reception. I wish the dish could point somewhere other than southwest because then I'd be golden. And for about the same service dish costs half what cable does.
Grand Theft Auto has always made any type of killing rewarding given the person has some cash on them. But killing people always comes with risk and doesn't make enough money to make it a viable way of going through the game. In fact, it becomes boring. Most of the time you'll really want to drive through town without even denting your car or attracting the police. The most reward comes from role playing your part as a bad guy and killing other bad guys! Imagine that...
I was wondering how sending data on both the rising and falling edges of a clock cycle would help me lose weight. I figured RDRAM would make me fat, but I couldn't see Double Data Rate actually helping me shed the pounds.

They usually make jeans or dockers. Unless he was talking about buying a pair of jackets. But that's a bit odd isn't it?
- The money I pay in taxes.
- The money my coworkers pay in taxes.
- The money Dell stockholders pay in capital gains taxes.
- The sales tax from the computers Dell sells.
- The cost Dell pays DHL to ship the systems (DHL pays people and they pay taxes.
Any questions?There was a woman who slept with a donkey. The donkey woke up in the middle of the night and pissed and shat all over her room. When she woke up in the morning the donkey had kicked open the door and escaped. The woman said to herself "That's the last time I go looking for a piece of ass at the Grand Canyon".

2 folding chair, an ironing board, and three bags of groceries on a honda rebel with no saddle bags, thank you very much!

- Do the needful
- Kindly see the following attachment
- I was tensed
- Why do you use the word "revert" rather than "reply"?
- Why is verb/noun agreement not important? eg "None of the emails is being sent to me"
- "Customer is irate"
- Why do you pronounce Wipro "Vipro" and Vehicle "Wehicle"?
I hear these things all the time and wonder why we're so dependant on a country with such awful grammar to handle so many customer issues.I have dish and I love the fact that they cost so much less than Time Warner cable in the Austin area.

If you have a BitTorrent link I'd really really like that.
