Try to make it funny next time
Hey, someone's still posting to this blog! Today's lucky entry is a caller who was fairly nice, and he wasn't notable because of any severe technical problems. Instead, he was noticeable because 1) he couldn't see very well and 2) he couldn't tell jokes very well.
The fact that he couldn't see made it tough to troubleshoot is problem, since it was most likely just a cord that had come loose or something similar. However, he couldn't identify his modem or router, or really anything else. He was OK with having someone who could see a little better give us a call back. And someone who either didn't tell jokes or picked better ones. Here's a choice morsel.
Caller: "Can I ask you a question?"
Me: "Sure."
Caller: "Why don't you take a blind man skydiving?"
Me: "Um, I'm not sure."
Caller: "His dog will go crazy!"
Me: "..."
