i don't understand

why do customers call up and expect us to be able to help them when they're not on site and don't have remote access to their routers? how am i supposed to help you troubleshoot if your router is "in vietnam" and you can't login to it? oh, i forgot. since i'm the technical support rep, i must have magical little elves at my disposal i can send wherever i want to reboot your router and check your tcp/ip settings! these are also the same elves that tell me what "color" your cat-5 cable is that connects your computer to your router. mmhmm...

grrrrrrr. only...monday...

HAHAHA Magical elves! We always joked about having to sacrifice a chicken to get things to work. I guess what practiced Tech Support Santoria or something. I like magical elves much better. While they are at it, can they bake me some cookies and cobble my shoes? kthxbye.

yes! magical elves can: a) fix your network issues; b) make you cookies; and c) fix your shoes. however, be careful not to get on their bad side as they can also break your network. truly, magical elves are the root of all network issues.
