13. I love these calls

I tie them up for long stretches of time, pretend that I'm trying to follow their directions but keep screwing up...

Oh, hang on... it wants me to re-boot (go get a cup of coffee).... Okay, it's rebooted now.

Open a browser? What's that. Oh, you mean the internet? Oh, hang on. Hey, it's asking me if I want to save a file...

Alright, let me just close everything. Hang on. I think it will be better if I re-start again... hang on.

And, when it seems that their patience is reaching a limit, I give them a four letter word-laced verbal fusillade about how stupid they are.
