The Hobo Camp Fire Is going well #VII.. Stop In!!!

[ezdays]

Good morning everyone. Kind of humid out right now, it should rain, it looks like rain, but there's just no rain to see.

I don't know how many of you get calls from "Microsoft technical support" regarding something about your computer, but I get calls on a very frequent basis. Sometimes they need to "verify my registration number", but most often it's to "help" me combat a virus that they know my computer is infected with. Sometimes I like to just string them along for a while like the other day, the guy asked my what I could see on my computer screen and I told him 'nothing" since it was turned off. (I was really watching TV at the time). He told me to turn it on and I told him it takes about 30 minutes to boot up with all the viruses I have on it and I'll call him back when it's up. .. Oh, I did hang up before he had a chance to say anything.... no callback number.... Yesterday I got another one, this guy said that I had a virus on my computer. I asked him how he know and after repeating his printed spiel several times, he said he knew because it was on the Microsoft server. I played along and he asked my what I was seeing on my computer screen and I told him in return that it was none of his business what was there..... He called me a rather nasty name (MF) and hung up. I guess he didn't appreciate being jerked around when he could be spending time screwing up someone else's computer.
