Little Things that Irk You: Episode V

Sunday shoppers who think it's acceptable to walk in at 5 minutes to close and proceed to ask ridiculous questions and spend ages browsing.

You've had since 10am FFS. Why leave it so late?!

This but replace "Sunday" with "Saturday".

You'll have gotten over the cold by the time the Wii U has finished updating.

Ha! Certainly seems that way. It seems to like its slow updates.

'Writers' on the internet.

If you're going to make a forum post or a tweet then you go ahead and write whatever gibberish you like; I'll work out what you mean. It's fine. But, if you aspire to be a writer and you're writing an article then please at least try. Use a spellcheck, get someone to proofread for you, take classes if necessary.

Dear Dell,

I don't know what you think S/N means but here in the real world it means serial number and is almost always unique to an item. Please explain to me why ten wildly different monitors of yours have the same S/N.

They've changed our delivery schedule at work.

It used to be Mon-Thurs at 7am.

Now it's Mon then Weds to Fri with the Thurs being a 6am drop.

I'm the only manager who lives in the same town as the store so guess who's drawn the short straw?

Hooray...balls!!

Yeah in Dell world the asset tag is unique.....obviously.

I got into an argument with Dell some years back about a faulty hard drive. I explained it was in warranty and you could see on the circuit board that something had burnt out as it was black. She wouldn't believe me that I hadn't opened the drive up to look at the circuit board. She said she'd never seen a drive with it exposed, I explained I'd never seen one not exposed.

Exhibit A:


She finally relented when I was adamant I'd never opened it, but she stuck to her story about never seeing a drive with exposed circuits.

When the replacement came, it was the first time I'd seen a hard drive with a rubber case all the way around!

Which would be great if they had them. Only one of our monitors has a service tag(not sure why it does but there you go). The rest have nothing of the sort.

When the replacement came, it was the first time I'd seen a hard drive with a rubber case all the way around!

Sounds like those old Seagate drives(e.g. Xbox ones). They had that.
