Help Desk Haikus

[rishi083]

I hate myself for choosing this Job....after 4 long years Ive decided to study furthur and locate a proper job where I can implement my skills.

But I have to thank this job as its shown me how tough and competative the world is.....!!

[rozeboosje]

If it doesn't kill you it can only make you stronger ;-)

[ByT3R]

You made my day!!

Really nice vid, I know the pain, thank god I'm not working at helpdesk anymore, moved to the developers after my degree.

So you keep on wielding your LART at some Lusers for me, the least relief you get ;P

[rozeboosje]

Thankfully my pain has ceased too. I'm in a new job. Hurray!

[Rhonda9]

I work at a call center. Amazing how many idiots are in the world. Truly amazing and there are millions of them. Just when you think you heard it all..another one comes along. Can't quit smoking.

[rozeboosje]

"we've got a cigarette"....

[Rhonda9]

Thanks Rozie but I just bought a carton.

[DLSS]

nice :P

[rozeboosje]

Thanks :-)

[mrsmuso]

Ah ha! I guess we're alright then. :-D

[rozeboosje]

I hope people check out the link in the video description to see other people's efforts. Of course you can also add them here as comments ;-)

[mrsmuso]

B-b-b-but you didn't include my haiku! :-P

[rozeboosje]

No, I only included my own work, but the link to the whole thread is in the video description.

[theinsidiouslack]

hee hee. i used to make haikus about one of my old jobs. ah those were the days! young, full of wise cracks, and bored out of my mind!

[rowsdowersavesus]

Groovy, rozey baby! Groovy!

[rozeboosje]

LOL

[Barklord]

I feel compelled to change my passwords...

:P

[rozeboosje]

:-) As long as you remember them.

[patflix]

Oh that was GOOOOD!!!!

"Which one is the "ANY" key?"

[rozeboosje]

LOL. Yes indeed. Which one, eh?

[ShortbusMooner]

Yep. Worked in a "long-distance" call center for about 1 1/2 yrs.

Uggghhhh.

[rozeboosje]

Yeah, that can't have been a picnic, Shortbus

[ShortbusMooner]

Luckily, I worked in the Collections Department, for a long-distance company, so I didn't have to take many inbound calls. I got to shut off people's long-distance, when they didn't pay their bill.

Kinda evil, huh?!

[DieselBodine]

Pino! That was definitely a "for real" video of the ordeals of customer service... both customer and service rep. Cool video!

[rozeboosje]

Thanks Scott!

[TheGiggler1]

I've been fortunate that in all these many years I have only been forced to call tech support on two occasions or so and they were always very helpful. Of course, who knows what faces they were making at the time?

[rozeboosje]

I've had good and bad experiences, from both ends of the phone line :-)

[PositiveLogic]

Either circular right shift your mind to drop the rot byte from your attitude -or- circular left shift it to add one's compliment temporarily to your ego! ;-)

[rozeboosje]

ROTFLMAO Thanks

[philhellenes]

Catharsis. :)

[rozeboosje]

Yeah. ;-)

[inmendham]

It a MAD MAD MAD...I occasionally get stuck attempting to troubleshoot problems with "technical support software" ... for some reason, it's nearly impossible to explain to company's why it's a-little-inefficient to attempt to continually fix software written in 1962.

[rozeboosje]

LOL. At least they survived Y2K ;-)

[Loreleila]

Breathe very deeply

Count to past infinity

Oh what insanity!

[rozeboosje]

And then.... start again.

[lirpa69]

I work in tech support, although I'm not on the phones.

Is that new Beck???? OMG OMG Thank you, Roze!!

[rozeboosje]

Yup. New Beck indeed. Life's good.

[CityzenJane]

NEW BECK! YAY!

[CityzenJane]

hahahah the old chair -to - keyboard disconnect...

[rozeboosje]

Yup. That's where the problem usually lies. Between the two.
