  • store workers=liars 2007-07-04 20:46:20 got a call where the lady's computer was running slow. so she rebooted it and didn't know the password to get back in.


    me: you know, you're not supposed to reboot any hardware without calling us first.
    her: uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ya, i know. but i called twice and it was busy for a long time.
    me: really? cause i'm the only tech in the building today - and i havn't had a call in over an hour. (was watching volume 2 of haruhi the whole time. love my job.)
    her: well...uhhhh......i had called it was...busy.......


    idiot.

    me: ... hold on I'LL take a look :|
    *logs him out, shuts down computer*

    me: ok, now unplug the register's power.
    him: ....................................ok, it's unplugged
    me: ok, now press the power button to make sure theres no power
    him: ok, ya. it's off.
    .........

    him: ya, it's resetting

    *pause* at this point in typing, i just finished the call*

    *continue*


    me:......wait, what? so is there something on the screen?
    him: ya, but it's resetting
    me:...............which wire did you unplug?
    him: the power just like you said. theres only one wire i've got here.
    me: whats on your screen: it just says OFFLINE all across the top

    (this means he turned the computer back on, and even re-launched the point of sale application without telling me. nice.)

    him: ok, mike, i reset it again!
    me: but i want it OFF. and unplugged.
    him: theres only one wire and we ONLY have a reset button

    *fast forward like 30 seconds of confusion*

    him: ok, i've got 3 cords here.
    me: unplug the POWER cord.
    him: which is that?
    me: the others should look like phone cords.
    him:..........so which one do i unplug?
    me: the fat one
    him: the fat one?
    me: the fat one.
    him: ok, unplugged.
    me: great! now goto the front of the register.
    him:.....i'm here.
    ok, now pull down the panel:
    him: in the back, right?
    me: no. in the FRONT of the register.
    him: but you said the back!
    me: no. i want you in the front of the register.
    him: ok, now what?

    *i walk him through a 5 second restart. not gonna explain it. the short explaination is, i got about 25 seconds of not having to talk to him*

    me: ok, now plug it back in:
    him: which one?
    me: the one you unplugged.
    him:............ok


    and after that everything was fine :|
