How many pople does it take

Okay how many people does it take to put on a keyboard tray. Apparently 3 people & 1/2 hour . Sorry just had to share this amuzing look into my work life.

2 to stare at the manual instructions and one to actually put it together!!

And one to call the help desk if there are any problems....

Just one...and the patience to wait for when he gets home

LOL ! Come on now, just plug that sucker in

OH.. keyboard tray.... that could take some work...

Couldn't it just be placed on a desk?

okay change time their still working on it, surposedly they needed screws. This is so sad they even have a drill & it's going on an hour now & it's still not in .

You lot seen this before - every time it makes me laugh

Technician: "Hello. Tech Support; may I help you?"
Customer: "Yes, well, I'm having trouble with WordPerfect."
Technician: "What sort of trouble?"
Customer: "Well, I was just typing along, and all of a sudden the words went away."
Technician: "Went away?"
Customer: "They disappeared."
Technician: "Hmm. So what does your screen look like now?"
Customer: "Nothing."
Technician: "Nothing?"
Customer: "It's blank; it won't accept anything when I type."
Technician: "Are you still in WordPerfect, or did you get out?"
Customer: "How do I tell?"
Technician: [Uh-oh. Well, let's give it a try anyway.] "Can you see the C:\\ prompt on the screen?"
Customer: "What's a sea-prompt?"
Technician: [Uh-huh, thought so. Let's try a different tack.] "Never mind. Can you move the cursor around on the screen?"
Customer: "There isn't any cursor: I told you, it won't accept anything I type."
Technician: [Ah-at least s/he knows what a cursor is. Sounds like a hardware problem. I wonder if s/he's kicked out his/her monitor's power plug.] "Does your monitor have a power indicator?"
Customer: "What's a monitor?"
Technician: "It's the thing with the screen on it that looks like aTV. Does it have a little light that tells you when it's on?"
Customer: "I don't know."
Technician: "Well, then look on the back of the monitor and find wherethe power cord goes into it. Can you see that?"
Customer: [sound of rustling and jostling] [muffled] "Yes, I think so."
Technician: "Great! Follow the cord to the plug, and tell me if it's plugged into the wall."
Customer: [pause] "Yes, it is."
Technician: [Hmm. Well, that's interesting. I doubt s/he would have accidentally turned it off, and I don't want to send him/her hunting for the power switch because I don't know what kind of monitor s/he has and it's bound to have more than one switch on it. Maybe the video cable is loose or something.] "When you were behind the monitor, did you notice that there were two cables plugged into the back of it, not just one?"
Customer: "No."
Technician: "Well, there are. I need you to look back there again and find the other cable."
Customer: [muffled] "Okay, here it is."
Technician: "Follow it for me, and tell me if it's plugged securely into the back of your computer."
Customer: [still muffled] "I can't reach."
Technician: "Uh huh. Well, can you see if it is?"
Customer: [clear again] "No."
Technician: "Even if you maybe put your knee on something and lean way over?"
Customer: "Oh, it's not because I don't have the right angle-it's because it's dark."
Technician: "Dark?"
Customer: "Yes-the office light is off, and the only light I have is coming in from the window."
Technician: "Well, turn on the office light then."
Customer: "I can't."
Technician: "No? Why not?"
Customer: "Because there's a power outage."
Technician: "A power--!?!" ...[AAAAAAARGH!]..... "A power outage? Aha! Okay, we've got it licked now. Do you still have the boxes and manuals and packing stuff your computer came in?"
Customer: "Well, yes, I keep them in the closet."
Technician: "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 store you bought it from."
Customer: "Really? Is it that bad?"
Technician: "Yes, I'm afraid it is."
Customer: "Well, all right then, I suppose. What do I tell them?"
Technician: "Tell them you're TOO STUPID TO OWN A COMPUTER!"

[slam]

Okay I can beat that one. This is my own personal experience yes this did happen when I worked in a computer software store. A person comes in to return disk he had bought like 2 days ago, he had the receipt & everything but we had to question due to the box being opened. He said that their not working anymore, the 1st one worked the 1st time but not since & he couldn't get the rest too. Now this was strange after all if he got them for the wrong computer, they shouldn't have worked the 1st time. When asked he said & this is a quote "yah they didn't work at 1st but after I cut them down it worked for awhile". He had cut 5 1/4 disk down to 3 1/2 & couldn't figure out why they didn't work, I was just amazed it worked once .

OH MY GOSH!!! LOL!!! IDIOT! I don't know of any keyboard tray that needs a drill, mine, you just stick it on there and manually tighten, no drill needed.

I had a client that called up and when I asked him if he was running under Windows (Windows 3.1 had just come out and our product was a DOS product) he said, "You know, you might have a point. Bob is by the window and he isn't having any problems."

I just stared at the phone until I could get back my nerve to speak.
