Dumb Asses part 1,098,066
Had a call this morning at 5.30am.
"UMB, my office computer is not working,come down now!", the stupid German growled.
"Can you tell me what happened?", I asked.
"I don't know, the computer is not working, the fax is not working, everything is not working, you come down?", he barked.
"Sure, give me 45 mins, will be down there", I answered.
15 minutes later, when I got dressed and called him back, it turned out that he did not turn on the main supply switch. But yet, the e-mail was not working. So, off to the client's office I went.
"The e-mail's fault lies in the US", I told him after troubleshooting the problem.
"No, no, it must be something wrong with the office, you go and check your computers thoroughly", he insisted.
Nah Beh, I hate it when people doubt ability, especially people more stupid than I am, and know less than me. And so, I had to make a show of calling my tech guys up, and checking up all the IT equipment. In the end, I asked him to call the IT support guys in US to check. Turned out that they had a scheduled server upgrade, and e-mail was supposed to be down for the day. And no one was informed.
KNNCCB! Fucking waste of my time. But then again, I get paid to take all this crap. Just so to support my vices.
I think I need to change my line of work. Fast, before stupidity overdose kills my remaining brain cells.
