    Default The Extra One

    The place where I work decided to replace the company-paid mobile phones for the "suits" upstairs.
    After negotiating a deal with Vodafone, we arranged for the phones to be sent directly to the homes of the various VIP's.

    The day after delivery, I received a call from a partner screaming about how his mobile phone didn't work.

    He said he charged it overnight just like the sheet said, but in the morning, it wouldn't power up.

    I asked EXACTLY what he did with the phone when he got it.

    "I took it out, plugged the charger into the wall and into the phone."

    "Did you put the battery in the phone?"

    "Not the extra one."

    "Sir, the phone only came with one battery."

    (Pause) "Oh, I think I figured out what's wrong with it."

    I thoTrue story.

    I work a lot from home, the office is down the road a few km.Had a call from the new secretary the other day, the usual informal help wasn't to hand.

    "The icons are missing."

    Hmm, I thought, and had visions of spinning beachballs (it's a mac) and wondering what to ask.
    I decided I needed to go.

    On my arrival, she showed me she was using Mail, and a toolbar was missing. "View/Toolbar"
    done.
