WELCOME to WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 10th, 2026
Heres The Story…..
Actual dialogue of a former Word for Windows Customer Support employee.
(Now I know why they record these conversations!):
Operator: ‘Computer performance assistance; may I help you?’
Caller: ‘Yes, well, I’m having trouble with Word for Windows.’
Operator: ‘What sort of trouble??’
Caller: ‘Well, I was just typing along, and all of a sudden the words went away.’
Operator: ‘Went away?’
Caller: ‘They disappeared.’
Operator: ‘Hmm So what does your screen look like now?’
Caller: ‘Nothing.’
Operator: ‘Nothing??’
Caller: ‘It’s blank; it won’t accept anything when I type.’
Operator: ‘Are you still in Word for Windows, or did you get out??’
Caller: ‘How do I tell?’
Operator: ‘Can you see the C: prompt on the screen??’
Caller: ‘What’s a sea-prompt?’
Operator: ‘Never mind, can you move your cursor around the screen?’
Caller: ‘There isn’t any cursor: I told you, it won’t accept anything I type.’
Operator: ‘Does your monitor have a power indicator??’
Caller: ‘What’s a monitor?’
Operator: ‘It’s the thing with the screen on it that looks like a TV.
Does it have a little light that tells you when it’s on??’
Caller: ‘I don’t know.’
Operator: ‘Well, then look on the back of the monitor and find
where the power cord goes into it. Can you see that??’
Caller: ‘Yes, I think so.’
Operator: ‘Great. Follow the cord to the plug, and tell me if it’s plugged into the wall.
Caller: ‘Yes, it is.’
Operator: ‘When you were behind the monitor, did you notice that there
were two cables plugged into the back of it, not just one??’
Caller: ‘No.’
Operator: ‘Well, there are. I need you to look back there again and find the other cable.’
Caller: ‘Okay, here it is.’
Operator: ‘Follow it for me, and tell me if it’s plugged securely into the back of your computer.’
Caller: ‘I can’t reach.’
Operator: ‘Uh huh. Well, can you see if it is??’
Caller: ‘No.’
Operator: ‘Even if you maybe put your knee on something and lean over??’
Caller: ‘Oh, it’s not because I don’t have the right angle – it’s because it’s dark.’
Operator: ‘Dark??’
Caller: ‘Yes – the office light is off, and the only light I have is coming in from the window’.
Operator: ‘Well, turn on the office light then.’
Caller: ‘I can’t.’
Operator: ‘No? Why not??’
Caller: ‘Because there’s a power cut.’
Operator: ‘A power……… A power cut? Aha, Okay, We’ve got it licked now.
Do you still have the boxes and manuals and packing stuff your computer came in??’
Caller: ‘Well, yes, I keep them in the attic.’
Operator: ‘Good. Go get them, and unplug your system, and pack it up
just like it was when you got it. Then take it back to the shop you bought it from.’
Caller: ‘Really? Is it that bad?’
Operator: ‘Yes, I’m afraid it is.’
Caller: ‘Well, all right then, I suppose. What do I tell them??’
Operator: ‘Tell them you’re too ****** stupid to own a computer! 😁😂🤣
Have a great day or pretend to! That’s my story and I’m sticking to it!
Have a WONDERFUL WEDNEDAY’ people, stay safe, and whatever you do,
don’t forget to laff it up! Peace, I am outta here! Eucman! 😁
GUARNTED TO MAKE YOU LAFF!
Caller: ‘Can you give me the telephone number for Jack?’
Operator: ‘I’m sorry, sir, I don’t understand who you are talking about’.
Caller: ‘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 point on the wall’. 😳
TUESDAY’s Movie Trivia of the day!
Prison Break number 5!
Answer: The 39 Steps!
This 1935 film, “The 39 Steps”, is a perfect example as to why Alfred Hitchcock is held in such high regard as a master filmmaker.
Robert Donat is Richard Hannay, a man framed for a murder that he did not commit, fleeing London in a bid to make his escape and prove his innocence. Along this journey he becomes involved with a group of spies who, unbeknownst to him, are also tied into the murder plot.
The film is brief, at only 86 minutes in length, which is just as well, as it moves at a breakneck pace, effectively putting us, the viewer, in the same shoes as Hannay. Hitchcock displays his skills by leading us with a light touch, that seems to take the edge out of the paranoia.
