If Restaurants Functioned Like Microsoft

Person: Waiter!

Waiter: Hi, my name is Bill, and I'll be your Support. What seems to be the problem?

Person: There's a fly in my soup!

Waiter: Try again, maybe the fly won't be there this time.

Person: No, it's still there.

Waiter: Maybe it's the way you're using the soup. Try eating it with a fork instead.

Person: Even when I use the fork, the fly is still there.

Waiter: Maybe the soup is incompatible with the bowl. What kind of bowl are you using?

Person: A SOUP bowl!

Waiter: Hmmm, that should work. Maybe it's a configuration problem. How was the bowl set up?

Person: You brought it to me on a saucer. What has that to do with the fly in my soup?!

Waiter: Can you remember everything you did before you noticed the fly in your soup?

Person: I sat down and ordered the Soup of the Day!

Waiter: Have you considered upgrading to the latest Soup of the Day?

Person: You have more than one Soup of the Day each day??

Waiter: Yes, the Soup of the Day is changed every hour.

Person: Well, what is the Soup of the Day now?

Waiter: The current Soup of the Day is tomato.

Person: Fine. Bring me the tomato soup, and the check. I'm running late now.

[waiter leaves and returns with another bowl of soup and the check]

Waiter: Here you are, Sir. The soup and your check.

Person: This is potato soup.

Waiter: Yes, the tomato soup wasn't ready yet.

Person: Well, I'm so hungry now, I'll eat anything.

[waiter leaves.]

Person: Waiter! There's a gnat in my soup!
