This is an actual e-mail reply from a customer:

"I didn't said that it don't send email always. I said that sometimes it behaves so that neither give any error message nor any email. may be that's due to load of visitors or what."

The first line just says it all...

I used to do support via email and it was always so hard not to reply to those in a smartass way. Oh, so hard...

Sometimes I did it in a sneaky smartass way, anyway. I just couldn't resist.

I sure there's reason that write that. Know they feel hurry they useing other word. That's my best guess.

This from someone whose username says "LOOSING my faith"?
hahahahaha

[loosechanj.livejournal.com]

Why of course.

[dmsalem00.livejournal.com]

wtf is with that anyway, is "loose" a legitimate spelling of "lose"?

That's always bugged me, b/c to me, "loose" does not mean to misplace something. "loose" means the opposite of tight.

Anyway, that sounds like some of the emails from the foreign outsourced techs I run across sometimes.

The reason for the whole "LOOSING my faith" thing is because losingmyfaith has already been taken, that an the concept of faith and belief isn't always so off and on, you can have a deep, devout faith, or a more lax (loose) view of things. That and the human brain only registers the first and last few letters of a word.

Wow, let's make fun of people who don't speak English as their first language! That's GREAT customer service!

There are approximately 20,000,000 people on AOL who speak english as a first language, and have worse grammar than that.

How do we know english isn't his first language?

I *don't* know it for a fact but given my experience it's a good guess.
