[Publib] Belated Friday: Favorite Interview Questions

[K.G. Schneider]

I can tell you all from personal experience that the exception here is if
said support person happens to be wearing a once-in-a-blue-moon skirt and
pantyhose, say for some fancy event. At that point the computer problem will
not resolve itself until she has climbed over a desk and is crouching behind
a computer, shouting "Are you getting a little blinky in the upper left
screen or are you seeing the Windows logo now?" The other rules here are
that she MUST get a hole in her pantyhose before the computer mysteriously
burps to life again and she must NOT have a spare pair in her purse, and she
MUST spend the rest of the day with strange grey dust balls all over her
dress. 

 

Also, if she is on the way out the door for any scheduled event, she must
avoid walking past computers, as they know this and will spontaneously
malfunction.

The experience at my library has been any body, male or female (although a
techie is preferable), standing behind you at the computer will make almost
any problem magically disappear!

They certainly can be ornery little things!

Sorry, Joe, your answer on #7 is incorrect.  Any woman can tell you
that the only absolutely surefire cureall for any problem you are
having with a computer is a small whiff of testosterone.   As soon as
the (male) tech guru gets within 2 feet of the computer it stops
acting up and behaves perfectly.  I wish this stuff came in a spray can.
