You'd wait more than 30 minutes to get any help from me with your box, I don't do tech support :p
Yeah I hate those help desk Johnnies too. Jumped up little nerds that they are...
But you DO do tech support - it's just not in IT, it's in woodworking:)Quote:

Been a long week for me. I should go home. :rolleyes:

The funny thing is, they keep producing a plethora of excuses for why the job has now become urgent, which you ignore and filter as: "he forgot it".
What we've discovered is that when the pressure bulids up to an intensity so complex and deep and life threatening that you feel like you're going to explode, all you have to do is turn the phone off and it all goes away. When you turn the phones back on the next day, there it all is again, just like a radio:
"Hello, it's John here from Bingle Homes, I've got a bit of a problem ...."
