IF RESTAURANTS FUNCTIONED LIKE MICROSOFT!
Patron: Waiter!

Waiter: Hi, my name is Bill and I'll be your Support. May I have your
telephone number, area code first? Your visit may be monitored for purposes
of quality control. Now, what seems to be the problem?

Patron: There's a fly in my soup!

Waiter: Exit the restaurant and re-enter, 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!

Haha; I like. That IS good, and very true!
Did you see that one on here about the bloke that upgraded his girlfriend to
a wife? Same vein as this.

True Story, lol
Microsoft Technical Support

One of Microsoft's finest techs was drafted and sent to boot camp. At the
rifle range, he was given some instruction, a rifle, and bullets. He fired
several shots at the target. The report came from the target area that all
attempts had completely missed the target.

The Microsoft tech looked at his rifle and then at the target again. He
looked at the rifle again, and then at the target again.

He put his finger over the end of the rifle barrel and squeezed the trigger
with his other hand. The end of his finger was blown off, whereupon he
yelled toward the target area: "It's leaving here just fine. The trouble
must be at your end!"

Customer: Hello, I'm running Windows Vista...
Helpdesk: Yes...?
Customer: ...and now my computer stopped working!
Helpdesk: Yes, you already said that.
