All names changed to protect the innocent.. This one caused a Double Take and a "What the fuck..?"... screen Grab right from Support Centers Call Queue
I'm not a fan of illicit drug sales, except when the pop machine is out of Mountain Dew.
However, a terminal marked "Automated Computer Assistance" with several buttons labeled "cannot print", "no network access", or even "Windows slow" that when pressed cause a mechanical gloved hand to pop out and bitch-slap the luser...that'd be much more practical. ;-)
And here I was thinking it was a vending machine that would distribute a well-deserved SMACK! to those desperately in need of one. Or two. Or a hundred.
Not that I know anyone who needs such treatment. Not me, no.
hell, I was thinking of a way to implement a system where on the push of a button, a boxing glove shoots out of someones screen and punches them in the face! :D
ha.. not like you need either of those available buttons... the tack is to post a commitment to the case.. and the calendar is a scheduler feature...kind of useless in MHO.. but whatever..
Hey, look! If I put in a dollar and hit B1, it says I get a LART! Wonder what that is... Oh, but for two dollars if I hit G4, it says I can get a used needle! What a useful machine! Two kinds of smacks!
