So, I get at least one question a week that I consider to be pants-on-head retarded. This isn't unusual, because my dumb ass went into a highly specialized field where 90+% of the population is only vaguely familiar with the rudiments of the equipment used to DO my job, much less actually perform any tasks related to the field.
I try to be understanding about this. I really do.
And the universe rewards me with email like this:
"I have your link on our site (_________________/resources.html). There is no scroll bar on the right to access more info. How do I get that?"
I decide to break this down.
1) yes. They do a have a link to our site on that page.
2) I'm not sure what the fuck he's talking about for the rest of it. There IS a scroll bar on the right, due to the page being rather long, and having a lot of information on it.
So. As far as I can tell, he's asking for something . . . that's already there? Not to put too fine a point on this, but I don't work for his place of business, so whatever happens on his site is not really a concern of mine. Forging ahead, because I am a fucking idiot, I send him a reply asking for some clarification. Which nets me this reply:
"If a page has more information on it than can be shown on the screen, there is no arrow on the right hand side to allow to move down the page to see more info."
Uh. Ok then. I'm not editing these to be a cocksucker, these are two separate email messages in their entirety, from someone with english as their primary language.
Fuck it, I'm done here in a couple days. I'm ignoring anything else this guy sends me.
