Internet Help Desk reminded me of many episodes in my (very distant) help desk past, but particularly of my Very First Time.
I was in grade 9, I think, and my friend’s family had just bought a Tandy 1000 SX (with three voice sound!) Of course, they were having trouble with it, and we had the same computer, so he called me. I already knew everything about computers, or at least how to run CopyWrite, so I gave it a shot, not even knowing that I was starting on a phone support path that would eventually pay many of my bar tuition bills.
I’ll save you the wind-up, since you just watched a whole video of similar nonsense - the monitor wasn’t plugged into the computer.
What, haven’t had enough yet? There’s always this classic…
