On a chat with HP support...

[Stormwalker]

I bought a piece of shit multifunction machine I saw on slickdeals a couple of weeks ago, and now the scanner/copier doesn't work after using it approximately two times. I went to hp's website to do the useless chat support so I could get an RMA number (which I guess they call you with now). Of course, you have to go through a basic "take out toner and shake, turn off/on printer" troubleshoot before they write up a ticket. My favorite part of the chat, however, was this:

That's why I only order shit from Amazon. Awesome return policy and great prices.

Darn, I saved the chat log as a pdf, so I can't copy paste. Y U make me type?!?

I said: Umm... CST 7am to 6:30pm I guess.. though all of those choices would be the same actual time range regardless of time zone...

Sam A says: Yes, time is the same on all zones.

Sam A says: The dispatch team is available in this time slot and calls accordingly






I didn't want to be too snarky, since I just wanted to get the RMA ticket as smoothly as I could.

man you have to step away from the number machine.

[Stormwalker]

man you have to step away from the number machine.

Yeah, man. That'll fix everything.

This whole thread is probably going a little over your head, as you likely aren't able to figure out the humor in the time zone selection given.

[Biff Tannen]

Since when is it an hour earlier in Denver, than it is in Sandy Eggo?

Lol, you should let them know how easy it is to fry up a cat. Maybe provide them with a delicious recipe for broiled cat w/ BBQ sauce
