And this guy's an MCSE?

[Viper GTS]

I just got this guy on the phone, who says he's an MCSE who wants "to learn something about NT." So he wants to install his internal DSL modem on NT. No big deal, right? The modem's installed, he can connect. He opens his browser, & gets a "The specified volume does not contain a recognizable file system" error message. And he thinks it's his DSL that's the problem. First place, this guy doesn't know JACK about NT. Knows even less than I do, and I don't know jack about NT. And he's supposedly an MCSE.

So I refer him off to Microsoft. His response? "There's no way in hell I'm going to call them, they'll charge me $100! I had a friend burn me a copy of service pack 2, but that didn't solve the problem either." So I suggest that he download Service Pack 6 on his 98 partition, & burn himself a CD of it. Then install it on his NT partition, since our DSL modems require SP4 or later to run. "I've never burned straight from DSL to CD..."

Oh my GOD this guy is a moron!

It's okay, Viper. One of these days, you can get together with Windogg and JonnyGURU and sit around a campfire, and vent alllll you want. Until then, please refrain from using the blotto box on customers.

RB...

He only had 'net connectivity on '98, &amp; I figured SP6 would at least be better than SP2.

At work I could burn directly off of our net connection, with networks shares anyway. Yes over the internet. Also it was only at 1X speed... It would take a hell of a network connection.. or burnproof to do it at 12X

I love paper MCSE's. Makes NCSEs (Copyright Resco Enterprises) look all the more impressive. Plus it saves me from having to pay for a bunch of overhyped tests.

I once went into a group interview with several &quot;MCSE&quot;s. one didn't know how to ping a IP, another had his MCSE, A+, and CNA but never owned a computer, a third didn't even know what MCSE stood for. They were told to walk and I was given an offer (turned it down).

What company do you provide tech suppport for? I was doing it for gateway several years ago, while in high school.

We just started some new hires where I work and I swear to GOD! There are people with friggin' MCSEs that HAVE NEVER EVER been inside of a PC.

I'm Paper Free and Proud of it!

I mean holy shmoly, you call a Help Center, what do you want? A doofus with a scrap of paper that (fundamentally) he bought, or somebody who knows what the %*#@*&amp;%#$@* HE'S DOING?

end of rant, please accept my apologies (unless you bought your worthless certifications, vile malignant scum).
