If
restaurants functioned like Microsoft....
Patron:
Waiter!
Waiter: Hi, my name is Bill, and I'll be your
Support Waiter. What seems to be the problem?
Patron: There's
a fly in my soup!
Waiter: Try again, maybe the fly won't be there
this time.
Patron: No, it's still there.
Waiter: Maybe it's the way you're using the
soup; try eating it with a fork instead.
Patron: Even when I use the fork, the fly is
still there.
Waiter: Maybe the soup is incompatible with
the bowl; what kind of bowl are you using?
Patron: A SOUP
bowl!
Waiter: Hmmm, that should work. Maybe it's
a configuration problem; how was the bowl set up?
Patron:
You brought it to me on a saucer; what has that to
do with the fly in my soup?!
Waiter: Can you remember everything you did
before you noticed the fly in your soup?
Patron: I sat down and ordered the Soup of
the Day!
Waiter: Have you considered upgrading to the
latest Soup of the Day?
Patron: You have more than one Soup of the
Day each day??
Waiter: Yes, the Soup of the Day is changed
every hour.
Patron: Well, what is the Soup of the Day now?
Waiter:
The current Soup of the Day is tomato.
Patron: Fine. Bring me the tomato soup, and
the check. I'm running late now.
Waiter leaves and returns with another bowl of soup
and the check.
Waiter: Here you are, Sir. The soup and your
check.
Patron:
This is potato soup.
Waiter: Yes, the tomato soup wasn't ready yet.
Patron:
Well, I'm so hungry now, I'll eat anything.
Waiter leaves.
Patron: Waiter! There's a gnat in my soup!
