<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">First thing that I usually ask when I hear these problems is if she's inserting the disc right side up (yes.. some people still insert discs shiny side up, but hey that’s pretty much usual procedure for us). She insisted that she was inserting the disc label side up though. I cringed and couldn't quite believe that a PS3 was faulty out of the box as this rarely happened. So anyways, I told her she should pass by to check if anything was wrong with the console, and change it with a new one if this was defective.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Today she came to my office, unpacked the box, and put the console on my desk… upside down.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">A client called in this morning, panicking that she bought a game '<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galaxy_2">Mario Kart Super Galaxys 2</a>', as soon she inserted the disc in the console many 'letters' came up, ending with an "<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terms_of_service">I Agree</a>" button. She was baffled whether or not she should press the button. o_0</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Eventually, I persuaded her to press the god damn button, as if it would self-destruct the console if she did the wrong move. She told me that there is another problem though after that.. her exact words were: "What shall I do now? It's telling me to Please Wait!!"</span><br />

He also stated that a disc is stuck inside and he couldn't eject it.</span><br />
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">I switched on the mistreated console, pushed the eject button, nothing happened, so I decided to dig in and pull out the disc manually. About 20 minutes later, with the help of a ruler laying on my desk, I managed to eject a total of 7 different Barney DVDs.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">when I have to give up on a client just so he/she can state he/she is right (although he/she is so so SOOOOO wrong) before leaving (most likely without doing a purchase). </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">This <a href="http://jakeellis01.blogspot.com/2008/04/progress-what-be-that.html">happens a lot in my work place</a>, say today; A client asked me about a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_fantasy_13">specific game</a> which its <a href="http://www.square-enix.com/na/company/press/2008/0130/">release date is still unknown</a> as of today. The client kept on rambling that he's 100% sure that the game is out (<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h6tt9YiycUU">damn you teasers!</a>) and he was not determined to leave until I agreed with him. I have proof, I know I'm right but I also know things could get worse if I disagree, so eventually...</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">A guy came to my office for some small setting on his PS2 and while we were talking he asked me if any new <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resident_evil#External_links"><span style="font-style: italic;">Resident Evil</span></a> game is coming out. I told him the next installment will be on PS3 next year. He said that he was the BIGGEST <span style="font-style: italic;">Resident Evil </span>fan in the country, he kept saying that he played all games, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">bla bla bla...</span> and continued babbling for around 15 min. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">As I am a Resident Evil fan, I asked him<span style="font-weight: bold;"> "Did you like Resident Evil 4?"</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">He promptly replied "<span style="font-weight: bold;">Oh my God! There's a Resident Evil 4?"</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">I answered <span style="font-weight: bold;">"It came out almost 2 years ago!"</span></span><span style="font-family: "verdana"; font-weight: bold;"><br /></span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8128777.post-78508313351872675292008-05-22T16:35:00.007+02:002019-09-22T10:30:35.888+02:00Hello? Hello??<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">A lady bought a cordless phone from us last week. The next day she came complaining that her phone wasn't working. We checked it out and found that it was working properly.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">The next day she showed up again and ended up arguing with my boss. They decided that the best thing to do is to send someone at her house. <br /><br />The 'repair guy' connected the phone and when he picked up the handset and dialed a number he heard a message on the phone:</span><br />

Once a console is registered (via Serial Number) on their official website, goodies, newsletters and 'points' are given to the user. <br /><br />The registration usually asks for the User details. The client was confused whether he should type in his actual Date of Birth or the Console's Date of Birth.<br /><br />Apparently he was going to enter today's date as the console was 'born' today.</span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8128777.post-19468042371521676632008-05-07T18:18:00.007+02:002019-09-22T10:22:15.411+02:00Cover Version<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 100%;">Don't ever ask for a Book, DVD, Game, etc... by describing what the cover looks like.

This is frequently solved with a simple automatic update which any console does when connected online, but a client usually misinterprets what an update really is. Here is a simple example:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Client:</span> I have this PS3 and when I play a game normally say 'Assassin's Creed'... at certain times it freezes.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Me:</span> Is your console connected to the <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Internet</span>?</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Client:</span> No.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Me:</span> No problem its just a simple update sir, I'll do it myself for you.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Client: </span>Update? What's that? I just purchased this 2 weeks ago and you're telling me it's already out-of-date? You should be ashamed of yourself!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Me: </span>Sir, <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">update</span>s are important to keep the console "Healthy" and always up to date with latest software. Also you can have more features in your console.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Client: </span>But I still don't understand how this 'thing' does not have the latest update. In my opinion your company is not professional; You're importing expired stuff.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Me: </span>The update got released this week...<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Client: </span>Whatever... hurry since I have my car double parked!<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">*me bangs head against wall*</span></span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8128777.post-35720624615299606982008-04-23T20:10:00.023+02:002019-09-22T10:21:22.407+02:00Why-Her-Less<div style="text-align: left;">
