If Microsoft ran a restaurant

[Guest guest]

(G)uest: Waiter!

 

(W)aiter: Hello, my name is Bill and I will be your server tonight.

Your stay may be monitored for quality control reasons.

First, may I have your address and phone number?

Good, now what can I do for you?

 

G: There's a fly in my soup

 

W: Leave the restaurant and come back in. Possibly the fly will not be there

the next time

 

G: No, the fly is still there...

 

W: Maybe you are eating the soup incorrectly, try it with the fork

 

G: Even if I use the fork, the fly is still there!

 

W: Does the dish fit the soup? what kind of dish are you using?

 

G: A SOUP DISH!

 

W: Hmmm, that should work. Maybe it's a configuration problem. How was the

soup dish delivered?

 

G: You brought the soup dish on a serving dish, but what does that have to

do with the fly in my soup?

 

W: Can you remember everything, before you realized there was a fly in your

soup?

 

G: I sat down and ordered the soup of the day.

 

W: Have you considered switching to the latest soup of the day?

 

G: You have more then one soup of the day?

 

W: Yes, we change the soup of the day hourly

 

G: Ok, what is the current soup of the day?

 

W: The current soup of the day is tomato soup

 

G: Great, bring me the current soup of the day and the check - I'm

running late by now....

 

The waiter brings the soup and the cheque

 

W: Here is the soup and the cheque

 

G: But that is potato soup?

 

W: Yes, the tomato soup got delayed by about 6 months while we try to

remove some lumps...

 

G: Fine, I'm so hungry, I'll eat the potato soup...

 

The waiter leaves

 

G: Waiter! There's a mosquito in my soup!
