You Mean It Isn’t Wireless?!
I’m working in a tech support call center. Answering the telephone as usual, I identify myself and ask how I can assist the customer.
Customer: “My cable TV isn’t working.”
As usual, I ask the customer to tell me about the lights on his modem.
Customer: “Okay, hold on while I find a flashlight. The power is out here.”
There is really no tactful way to explain to an adult man that his television needs electricity to operate.
