WORD PERFECT
There's  always one. This has got to be one of the funniest things in a long time.  I think this guy should Have been promoted, not fired. This is a true story from the Word Perfect Helpline, which was transcribed from a  recording monitoring the customer care department.  Needless to say the Help Desk employee was fired; however, he/she is currently suing the Word  Perfect organization for
"Termination without Cause".  Actual dialogue of a former Word Perfect Customer Support employee.
(Now I know why they  record these conversations!):

Operator:          "Ridge Hall, computer assistance; may I help you?"
Caller:               "Yes, well, I'm having  trouble with WordPerfect."
Operator:         "What  sort of trouble??"
Caller:               "Well, I was just typing along, and all of a sudden the words went  away."
Operator:         "Went away?"
Caller:               "They  disappeared.."
Operator:         "Hmm So what does  your screen look like now?"
Caller:               "Nothing."
Operator:          "Nothing??"
Caller:               "It's blank; it won't accept anything when I  type."
Operator:          "Are you still in WordPerfect, or did you get  out??"
Caller:              "How do  I tell?"
Operator:         "Can you see the C:  prompt on the screen??"
Caller:               "What's a sea-prompt?"  
Operator:         "Never mind, can you move your  cursor around the screen?"
Caller:               "There isn't any cursor: I told you, it won't accept anything  I type."
Operator:         "Does your monitor have  a power indicator??" Caller:               "What's a monitor?"
Operator:         "It's  the thing with the screen on it that looks like a TV. Does it have a  little light that tells you when it's on??"
Caller:                "I don't know."
Operator:           "Well, then look on the back of the monitor and  find where the power cord goes into it. Can you see that??"
Caller:               "Yes, I think so."  
Operator:         "Great. Follow the cord to the  plug, and tell me if it's plugged into the wall.
Caller:               "Yes, it is."
Operator:          "When you were behind the monitor, did you  notice that there were two cables plugged into the back of it, not just  one??"
Caller:                "No."
Operator:          "Well, there are. I  need you to look back there again and find the other cable."
Caller:                "Okay, here it  is."
Operator:          "Follow it for me, and  tell me if it's plugged securely into the back of your  computer."
Caller:               "I  can't reach."
Operator:          "Uh huh..  Well, can you see if it is??"
Caller:                "No."
Operator:           "Even if you maybe put your knee on something and lean way  over??"
Caller:               "Oh,  it's not because I don't have the right angle - it's because it's  dark."
Operator:          "Dark??"
Caller:                "Yes - the office light  is off, and the only light I have is coming in from the  window. "  
Operator:           "Well, turn on the office light then."
Caller:                "I can't."
Operator:           "No? Why not??"
Caller:                "Because there's a power failure."
Operator:          "A power......... A power failure? Aha, Okay, we've got it licked  now.  Do  you still have the boxes and manuals and packing stuff your computer came  in??"
Caller:                "Well, yes, I keep them  in the closet."
Operator:           "Good. Go  get them, and unplug your system and pack it up just like it was when you  got it. Then take it back to the store you bought it from."
Caller:                 "Really? Is it that  bad?"
Operator:            "Yes, I'm  afraid it is."
Caller:                  "Well, all right then, I suppose. What do I tell  them??"
Operator:            "Tell them  you're too f ---ing  stupid to own a computer!!!!!"
