Even more hilarious is when my computer flashes a pop-up screen saying Microsoft has detected my computer is infected with covid-19 and to immediately call some toll free number before the virus kills my computer.

BOL! My wife and I each have a chromebook and have averaged 2-4 calls per week to save our Microsoft stuff.

They kept telling me I was having problems with Microsoft Windows—on my Chromebook? ;-)

The other funny one are the calls on my wife's 15 year old Lexus that our warranty is running out and needs to be extended.

MAYBE those constant calls will stop.

I have resorted to saying some very dirty things to the callers.

I get those, also-—and even thing in the mail.

I have a 1979 Buick station wagon. Been driving it over 39 years.

I also have a 1976 Chevy 1 ton truck. Been driving it over 34 years.

Both were bought from private parties.

NEVER had any kind of warranty on either one.

I particularly get the postcard ones right after I renew my registration....

Smells worse than the Microsoft cafeteria at lunch. Seriously? Do these people ever bathe?

I refuse to go business with any company that outsources its customer service to India. I refuse to listen to their foul, broken English.

Love screaming at Indian recruiters that tell me ‘to do the needful and revert my resume” what the eff does that actually mean?

If you want to really piss them off, ask them if their mother is still feeding them with her left hand. Or tell them that you enjoy wasting the time of barefoot dalit bhenchodes like them.

Nothing worse than rank, pants splitting curry farts in an enclosed space. Not to mention the sheep dip level BO.

My job,until I retired, had me traveling all over PA. One guy wanted to extend my warranty and I was pretending to be SOOO happy. My 2007 Tiburon with 600,000 miles was not accepted after 30 mins.

My man! One of them got my 95yr old dementia(ed) mother’s SS, two weeks after her daughter(my sister) died. I keep them on the phone as long as I can. My record is 36min.

After several reboots due to fictional freeze-ups, I dragged him all the way out to finally having the download button to click for his ‘remote support’ - right up to the edge - and then let him have it.

He ended up yelling back at me. I had to hang up on HIM.

ROFLMAO

Reference: your Pradep . . . . I call them all Timmy (a Brenda sound alike). Several have actually responded to Timmy.

Ring-Ring.
Hay, good day Timmy. Ya’ I know it’s you. We talk almost every day. Listen, regarding that Social Security Scam I was running in South Texas . . . I already saw the Judge and she Blessed Me Into the Democrat Party and all has been cleared up. She was suppose to call you and tell you. ’til then!
Bye.
