Do you enjoy tech humor? Tech Monday ~ 9-12-16

By
Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker Realty ~ 512.750.6899

What a great week-end! Handsome Hudson turned 4 and celebrated his birthday, two of my new listings went under contract and I have 2 listing appointments today! Why not grab a cup of your favorite morning brew and join me for some tech support humor to start your week.

 

 


Tech Support: “Ok, we’re going to check your modem settings.  First thing we need to do is make sure all programs are closed.

Customer: “How do I know if everything is closed?”

Tech Support: “Make sure all windows are closed.”

Customer: “But...I’m in the basement, I don’t have any windows.”

Good morning, Dorie and Happy Belated Birthday HH -- as far as your tech story -- I'm sure support staffs all over are nodding that they have heard the same from many customers.  Good luck with your appointments.

Dorie, sounds like you had a great weekend and thanks for for the morning chuckle!  We do get calls from individuals with heavy foreign accents saying they are from Microsoft and want to check Windows by giving them access to our computer.  I tell them our windows on our house work fine(they are Pella windows)  and then thank them for their concern and hang up.  Scam over!

You know there probably are people like that! Some people should not be allowed to drive a car or a computer!

Dorie,  Now that would be one clueless person for sure.  Congratulations on getting two listings under contract ... and on the two new listings you will soon be taking.

Good morning Dorie,

Happy belated Birthday to Hudson.

Sounds like more than the windows are closed.

Make yourself an astonishing day.

For sure, tech supporters can relate to this type of answer, and those of us in this business can relate to other wacky statements our clients come out with!

  It's funny, because it is regrettably true in many cases!

That's one reason I tell my buyers to buy the home with windows in the basement!

Dorie I can't believe Hudson is already 4 years old.  In another year he will be starting school!
