My words are my thoughts and I'm a pessimist person who just thinks that Murphy's Law is what defines me. I believe that anything bad that has ever happened will continue to do so. So, if anything just cannot go wrong, it will anyway...

It looks like a bunch of garbled text, huh? Well, you can actually learn how to decode using by reading this post.

If you hate challenges, you might want to try jlys@[remove-this]tm.net.my but I only used this sparingly as it's the primary target for junk mails.

 Some Idiots

Me: "Thank you for calling Technical Support..."
Customer: "Hello?"
Me: "Yes, can I have the serial number please?"
Customer: "I don't have a serial number. I'm on the outside."
Me: "Okay, may I know what product you're having over there?"
Customer: "Oh? It's a desktop"
Me: "Hmm, which model?"
Customer: "I don't have the model. Like I said I'm on the outside."
Me: "Uh huh, just to let you know that you've dialled to the notebook, PDA & projector support line..."
Customer: "So can you help me?"
Me: "Well, you ARE dialing to notebook, PDA & projector support..."
Customer: "Why can't you help me?"
Me: "Eh? I'm not sure whether you understand this, but I'm supporting notebook, PDA & projector..."
Customer: "How can you do this? You're an employee right? You should know how to support!"
Me: "I'm trying to tell you, I'm handling notebook, you know the computer you can carry around.... PDA, a handheld computer & projector?
Customer: "So what am I supposed to do?"
Me: "Just redial the toll free, push option 2."
Customer: "You cannot help me at all?"
Me: "I don't have the expertise. Look, just redial the toll free and push option 2."
Customer: "So what number should I dial?

ARGH! I just wish God added one more commandment: THOU SHALT NOT BE AN IDIOT.

I read Kevin Mitnick - Art of Deception and came across one of Albert Einstein's quote: "Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former."

Actually we have a strict rigid code to maintain politeness to the customer as they have a recording system in my company. However, sometimes the stupidity is overwhelming that I don't care for the company policy anymore...
