techrecovery-Gleaned from almost 3 1/2 years of working in the dungeons of an internet company.
1. We don't need to know how many fans your computer has. - And if your the CTO of a company and think this information is absolutely necessary, I worry for your company.
2. We don't need to know what kind of credit card you are using or what the limit is. - Unless of course the credit card company is regularly blocking charges and then we'll ask but otherwise we don't care.
3. We don't need to know what your IQ is - Even geniuses can be complete morons when it comes to computers. Telling us that you ARE a genius only gives us more to make fun of later.
4. We don't need to know what color your CPU tower is. - We don't have to see your computer. We don't have to know that if it's black, white or paisley and we don't care! ...Again if you're the CTO of a company, I fear you.
5. We do not need to know that you paid for the service. - Of course you did - unless you're a free customer. Paying for something does not guarantee that it will work 100%. Please refer to Murphy's Law.
6. Exactly how bad you think our staff is. - Telling us that you think our staff belongs in welfare lines will not put you in our good graces and may make things worse for you, since we'll probably cancel your account on principle.
