Bastard Operators from Dell: the cussing

Very angry. Stated what I wanted in the bluntest of terms: "A new, 40 gig or better HD sent to me, me shipping the 30gig one back, and I will install it my damn self. I have a fucking screwdriver."

Madwoman got the supervisor, after a lengthy silence where I was afraid I had broken my technician. Supervisor is escalating it.

10 gigs is not much these days, but DAMN.

Well, look on the bright side. At least you're not in as bad as straights as someone else I read about. They ordered a whole new system from Dell, including a snazzy LCD monitor. She was all excited when she got it because she lives in the Great White North and it takes forever, according to her, for stuff to clear customes. So, with great joy and squealing she starts unpacking. She pops open the LCD box and does it contain an LCD monitor?



No. It contains a Dell backpack.

I can top that: Dell UK sold some hapless individual a £2000 workgroup server because they needed a way to 'connect two computers together'.

What they needed was, at most, an ethernet switch.
