Do you enjoy tech humor? Tech Monday ~ 11-30-15

By
Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker Realty ~ 512.750.6899

It’s the last Monday and day in November! Thanksgiving came and went for Geno and I with a great get away to Hyatt Lost Pines and plenty of time with family! Handsome Hudson and Beautiful Beckett were so much fun this year. Sunday I negotiated repairs for my buyers on a home they are closing the end of December. Sorry to see the week-end off come to an end. But it's now time to grab a cup of your favorite brew and join me for some tech support humor to help start your day: 

 

 

A lady was putting a credit card into her floppy drive and pulling it out very quickly. A fellow employee inquired as to what she was doing and she said she was shopping on the Internet, and they asked for a credit card number, so she was using the ATM "thingy."                     Good grief!!!!   Would someone really say this????

Good Monday morning Dorie. They were either very, very blond or they just do not need to own a computer.

Dorie - she must be going back to the 80's.  When was the last time you saw a floppy drive?

My kids wouldn't even know what a floppy disk drive was. I imagine there are some, shall I say "elderly" folks who might have tried this a time or two before someone showed them how to use the internet.

Good morning, Dorie --- A fun yet productive holiday weekend for you.  As far as your tech humor -- very appropriate for Cyber Monday.

Good Monday morning Dorie Dillard -

I'm glad you enjoyed more quality time with the family. I was with buyers Friday and Saturday showing homes most of the day.  Two separate buyers with two very different wants and needs.  When not working we enjoyed college and pro football.  That's about as exciting as it gets around here.

How can we be of service

I can figure what an "ATM thingy" is ...., but what in the world is a floppy drive. Whatever it is, it sounds illegal.

Dorie Dillard - Very funny!  I wouldn't be surprised if at some point we will be able to swipe our cards on our computer and save ourselves the type-in time! : )

Maybe she could add the cost of the purchase on the phone key pad, before inserting the credit card into the computer to pay.

Dorie well at one point I would have said, NO, someone would not say or do that, but these days nothing surprises me any more :)

Good morning Dorie. Yes, someone would really say that. Some of the customer service folks must really hear some crazy stuff.

Hi Dorie.  Nice to read that you and Geno had a wonderful Thanksgiving.  Just don't try to pay for it using the ATM thingy!
