If Microsoft Ran a Restaurant

(G)uest: Waiter!


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


W: Here is the soup and the check.


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! ....................
