I'll go with this one first since it happened today... Client: I can't access the video conference that is going on right now!... its giving me an error! Me: OK Sir, let me check to see if there is a problem. I'll call you right back. I check and call back - Me: Sir, there does not seem to be a problem, let me see if i can connect to your computer to see if i can fix the problem. Client: Do you need to be connected to the domain for that? Cause I'm not... Me: -_-

Let's just say I'm glad I didn't spend much time on a slideshow presentation I was ask to do because I'm "good at, you know, prettying up stuff". Kept it simple. Done in PS but asked to make an "editable" version in MS Powerpoint today. Which they edited... Now there's, -Cool spinning transitions for text. because "i just like how" -Some odd ass font -Orange type on a purple background (only one page thankfully -_-) -etc Its going to be running in the background tomorrow as they launch the new committees or whatever. Just hope no one says i had anything to do with it :s
Manager from hell... ppl who don't know how to read emails... Email thread as follows... (edited a bit) Customer: Hi manager, I would like to request an extended loan of a projector (until 4th June 2012). This is to facilitate presentations at company and industrial sites for students who have done their final year projects with me. Thanks in advance. Manager: Were you all aware of this loan. What documents was sign for this loan? Do we have nything on file? Why is he taking this projector? Sent from my BlackBerry® wireless device available from bmobile. Me: Hi manager The customer is just now asking for the loan of the projector. He wishes to and is asking permission to carry the projector off campus to various company and industrial sites. Regards Manager: Guys Extended means that you have this in your possession? How come he can now request? Is it just poor grammar? Another Tech: Good day, the customer is requesting the use of a projector. He may have had the use of a projector during his classes and would like to use it offsite for final year presentations. I will enquire further tomorrow from Stephon and we will update you accordingly. Manager: oh... ok... noted Me: so wait nah 2 different ppl need to breakdown one customer email that he send to you, just for you to understand, do you not read before you reply /rage!!!
