"What do you need to know?"

"What does it do?"

"..." *shoots self*

On the positive side, I got some car paint so Larry doesn't look like he got cut up by a bitch, now he just looks blotchy. I can deal with that.

I repeat, the world is going to end; please take all of your belongings and exit the world to your left, thank you and I hope you enjoyed your life!

I received like three customer compliments today, and yes that word is spelt correctly, Tribbles. :|

Stupid stuff that happens at work:

After explaining a few things about a general camcorder subject...

Customer: So you know anything about this stuff?
Me: !? ... *blink* Did I not just answer your questions?
Customer: Oh, yeah...

Waiting in another department for someone to get off the phone to ask them something...

Kid walking over to me: Excuse me the *turns head and points in opposite direction*
Me: *Not hearing what he said* Sorry what?
Kid: The computer *turns head and points in same direction*
Me: I can't hear what you're saying when you face the other way.
Kid: The computer is frozen!
Me: Ok, let me get someone for that. *Walks over to computer to see its working fine.* -_-

Customer: You must be happy Circuit City is out of business.
Me: Not real exciting having forty thousand people lose their job.
Customer: Oh... *makes a sad face and walks away.*

Customer: What does this GPS do? *Points to the lowest end model*
Me: Tells you where to go.
Customer: I know THAT.
Me: ...
Customer: But what does it DO?
Me: *confused* Tells you where to go?

SOMEBODY ESPLAIN!

Customer: I have a Magellan GPS and I was wondering how to update it?
Me: Just go to Magellan's website and download the maps.
Customer: It's a Tom Tom.
Me: Then go to Tom Tom's website.
Customer: How are the Tom Tom's rated?
Me: Well, Garmin's are higher rated.
Customer: That's what I have, a Garmin.
Me: ???

Don't come up to me and ask for a discount if you have a starbucks in your hand. If you can pay $5 for a cup of shitty coffee, you can pay $179.99 for a camera.

At work today, a guy was browsing my department in this shirt:

It was awesome.

Speaking of work, CODE ONE BITCHES, I'm all over that shit.

I've always, for the benefit of the consumer, assumed a certain intelligent quota for customers who come in and need assistance. It is ok to not know anything about technology as I am here to explain it to you so you do.

However, when a consumer cannot understand simple words such as but not limited to the following, I cannot provide any more assistance other than silent mockery.

The word list is as follows:
Proprietary
Resolution
Low-Profile
Multi-tasking
Wall
Size

Actual list size is larger, but some terms have been forgotten/blocked from my memory.

I made a list of what I loved at work and what I loathed.

I think I don't really like working in Car-Fi. But hey, I get free donuts sometimes!

Mah services manager gave me this after I forced myself out of my department and into more important departments.

Too bad I don't actually work for the Geek Squad, I just get them monies.

Also, I used Picasa 3 to edit the image a little, very nice to have, but DOESN'T RESIZE IMAGES!! Wry Google, wry!?
