Microsoft Help - second one

Another of my responses when Microsoft throws up an error dialogue box.

Enjoy:

I've got this message for months now and nothing is ever fixed. I'm guessing the error message isn't correct, since there wasn't any errors occurring. Unless by "serious error" you mean "Restart even though I told it to Shut Down" then I guess there was a serious error. Perhaps the message is over dramatic and it's not serious at all. The thing is, if it were serious I don't think the computer would be able to even tell me that.

That's all I got this time. Talk to you tomorrow.

Microsoft Help

I thought I'd share some of my messages that I send when Microsoft puts up an error message. I truely believe there just isn't anyone on the other end of those things.

Enjoy:

This one refers to radio buttons that had to be selected.

The above 3 choices don't explain why it isn't useful. The reason it isn't useful is because it doesn't solve anything. You should add that as a selection. "Nothing Is Solved".

Either that or instead of asking if this information was useful, ask if this information was "useless". Then I'd pick "Yes". Because it is useless. I have never, in the very long time using Microsoft products, have ever got a solution. This all is very pointless. My perception of the "Problem Solving Department" at Microsoft involves a lot of donuts, coffee and perhaps many rounds of Halo 3. I kind of want to work there. Sounds like a hoot.

Cheers, have a good afternoon. Enjoy your lunch.

Magic

Through the magic of iPhone Apps I may have found a convenient way to do this. But I have said that before. So we'll see. If I'm back in the next day or two then it's working.

See you then.

I'll tell ya how you can give me great customer service!!

If you've ever dealt with Bell Canada (either mobility or satellite), their customer service department will always answer the phone with a pleasantly practiced "Thank you for choosing Bell, how can I provide you with excellent customer service?"

At first you may think that this is a cheesy phrase that they need to say. As a directive from their superiors. Something written on official letterhead as the approved telephone greeting. But really I think that this is a blatant plea. A desperate question saying "Please help us!! How the hell do we give you excellent customer service!? Because we sure as hell don't have a clue!!"

Do not have a problem that falls outside of their realm. I actually had a service rep say to me "That's not possible. It just can't happen." When I indicated that they in fact did charge me for a service I never asked for they said "We can't change that because it just can't happen."

Much the same as a small child covering their ears or eyes and pretending that it's just not there as long as you can't see or hear it.

That's my thought, as usual, if you don't like them, who gives a rat's ass.

T out.
