Flash's 'Tip of the week'

Recommended Posts

...Don't trust Computer Technicians.

As nice as they may seem, and as qualified as they look, their constant reassuring comments and important sounding techno-babble is no more than a mere hoax to make you believe they have everything under control...

But they don't!

All they do is poke around in your files, and look for really important stuff to play the deleting game with! Then, when you go to pick yer Computer up from them, they say; 'Oh, we're still working on it. It'll be ready for you tommorow.'

So anyway, 3 weeks later you get your computer back. It's slow, it freezes up every 20 seconds, and you can't go online... So you ring them up...

'Hey, my Computer is messed up! What the hell did you do to it? I said fix it, not f*** it up!'

'Oh, Okay, just bring it back in.' They'll tell you. So you take it back in... Sure enough, another few days go by and you FINALLY get it back.

But the Modem STILL doesn't work.
Rinse, Lather, Repeat.

So, after all that, you finally get your Computer back. And the one lesson you've learned is; DON'T TRUST COMPUTER TECHNICIANS!!

---------------

(Heck, I've been gone close to three weeks now. I wonder If anyone still remembers me... Hmmm...)

[COLOR=darkblue]Computer Technicians are like plumbers, or V.C.R. repair men...... they don't have lives, so they like to screw with people who do. This is why everyone must get a G.E.D., get into college, and become smart..... so your name tag won't say, "Bob.. Plumbing and Waste Specialist." :lecture:[/COLOR]

[SIZE=1]Lol, I've never had to resort to a comp. tech.. if my computer starts to be weird then I just :cussing: about it until my mom or dad breaks and eventually gets a new one, lol. This is our second computer, we should have gotten a new one YEARS ago though.. lol, our old one was from about 92ish :eek:[/SIZE]

well, my uncle ron is like a computer god, so when i have a problem i call him. but never call compaq people. i called them, all this one guy wanted to do is sell me stuff. i hung up and called again, and the next guy sounded like he was high and didn't know what he was talking about. i called my uncle, fixed in 5 mins. :smoke:
