Sooo Not Ready For The Internet, Part 9
I was working at the Norwegian equivalent of a Best Buy, back in 2007. A customer is interested in a laptop.
Customer: “Could you also help me with my internet access at my house? I only have the internet at work at the moment.”
Our store cooperates with a couple of providers, so I show him a comparison chart of the different plans and bandwidths. He looked at it for a while and asks:
Customer: “These prices, are they for full access?”
Me: “What do you mean?”
Customer: “I only go to [two tabloid news sites]. There’s no way I’m paying for the whole internet!”
What really puzzled me is that he brought with him a printout of the computer he wanted from our website, so he must have had at least an idea of how the internet works.
