Not so tech savvy

Today, I called Tech Support because the computer program wouldn't let me open files for my online classes. After an hour, and being walked through the downloading process multiple times. There was a pause and he said, "You're a fucking idiot." and hung up. It still won't work. FML

Sometimes I wonder if my computer skills will ever be needed... but then I hear another story like this. 1. Check whether you're using the right program to open the document. 2. Next, try and find the right program. 3. If that doesn't work, right click on the file and click on "open with." 4. Select "notepad." You can probably figure it out from there.

i give him the benefit of the doubt that you're a ******* idiot. i use to work in tech support and there's a lot idiots out there. i mean usually the answer to their question is that they either didn't turn something on or forgot to plug something in.

while he was rude and out of line, you probably are a ******* idiot. seriously, an hour to open downloaded files? I would have done the same thing.

As someone who's worked in IT before, YDI if a techie can't help you in an hour's worth of time.

If he was starting to lose it, then there's more to this story than you're telling us. I'm gonna go out on a limb here and assume you did what most people do before they write an FML. YDI for being a douche to him first. He has a right to refuse service for any reason.
