A little English humour - November 2002
Here's proof that everyone says something stupid once in a while. These excerpts are taken from customer support centers in the UK:
---------------------------------------------------------
Customer: "I deleted a file from my PC last week and I have just realized that I need it. If I turn my system clock back two weeks will I have my file back again?".
---------------------------------------------------------
Customer: "I've been calling 0700-2300 for two days and can't get through to enquiries, can you help?".
Operator: "Where did you get that number from, sir?".
Customer: "It was on the door to the Travel Centre".
Operator: "They are our opening hours, Sir".
---------------------------------------------------------
Customer: "I'd like the Fire Service, please".
Operator: "Where are you calling from?".
Customer: "The Kitchen".
---------------------------------------------------------
Customer: "Can you give me the telephone number for Jack?".
Operator: "I'm sorry, sir, I don't understand who you are talking about".
Customer: "On page 1, section 5, of the user guide it clearly states that I need to unplug the fax machine from the AC wall socket and telephone Jack before cleaning. Now, can you give me the number for Jack?".
Operator: "I think you mean the telephone jack on the wall".
