r/Talesfromtechsupport This clueless person calls into tech support complaining that their WiFi is slow. They ask the tech support guy to refill it, like you refill gas into your car. Uh... that's not how WiFi works. Are you really that clueless? If you like this video, hit the subscribe button for more daily Reddit content!

Hello, I'd like to order 1 gallon of WiFi please.
Can you order some for me as well?
hello, i'd like to order 1 wholesome response please.
Hey rSlash!! Love your videos. :)
2 wholesome responses 1 gallon of free wifi
I would love you to please give me all your belongings because I am a very big fan of yours meaning I am entitled to all of your belongings.
“I started having problems with my WiFi three days ago.”
“Just restart your router.”
“Oh I got rid of that.”
“When?”
“Three days ago.”
*long heavy sigh*
This made me lauuggghhh😂😂😂😂😂😂😝😝
It's so funny ... you'd think "Naw, that story has to be fake, there can't possibly be people THAT stupid"
Working in IT has kinda shaken my faith in humanity a bit ... People really are THAT stupid, and I can't understand how or why ...
The sad thing is, it is not the exception but the norm that customers calling tech support are not able to make those simple temporal deductions.
@@prinegonbevaris1788 I know, it's horrifying. You inevitably thing about the fact that these people are *walking around* out there! They're not locked up or anything. Nobody's taking care of them, they're likely not getting professional help either. It's scary, man.
OMG THIS HAPPENS TO ME SOO MUCH, I GET RID OF MY ROUTER AND THE WIFI STOPS!!!
"Yes we sell Wifi refills. They're over on aisle 6, above the headlight fluid."
Don't forget to get some blinker fluid for the car too.
Don't forget the elbow grease.

"I can't log in"
"did you capitalize your ID?"
"Do I need to capitalize the numbers too?"
I had to go on mute
LMAO
😂
Happened to me once too, "are the numbers upper case or lower case?"
I kind of find it funny that the caps lock key doesn't let you push the numbers and give you the symbols it just gives you capital letters and that's it it's not a shift lock if there even is such a thing
I know someone who remembers what symbols they have in their passwords by calling them "Capital Numbers". :P
As an example, instead of telling me "oh, and put a * in there at the end", it's "after the letters, add a capital 8".
"What happened to it?"
"I don't know. I left to go use the bathroom and when I came back it was like that."
Yeah, that didn't work with my mother when I was 5, either.
Joe Mama LOL!
That happened with my phone except the sun was shining on it and I was there next to it. The sun managed to melt the phone case and break the back glass.
"My TV stopped working."
"And how got the shoe in the screen?"
"I don't think, its related to the issue."
It's staggering how much tech suddenly 'breaks' when there's the possibility of an upgrade - these people, (as well as being selfish & juvenile) must believe that tech support employees are idiots.
I've known two guys that purposely broke their phones to get new ones when its been their partners "turn" to upgrade. Tech-thirsty people like that are just overgrown brats
@@rannvamacdonaldarnskov4794 I've heard of it happening once before, and it's an incredibly juvenile thing to do.
Anyway, your name is fantastic - I'm guessing Russian, but Macdonald?
Wonderful.
@@ianmacfarlane1241 not the first to guess russian :) but no. Rannvá is faroese and Arnskov is danish. My father is half dane half scot, mother was faroese.
@@rannvamacdonaldarnskov4794 Ah! Sorry - the 'kov' suffix sounded Russian, or to me it did anyway, and I'm not too familiar with Faroese or Danish names, (apart from the 'sen' and 'dottir' suffixes).
Anyway, still a very cool name ✌️
@@ianmacfarlane1241 ah, "skov" isnt a suffix, it's just the danish word for forest, but i understand the assumption! :) and thank you, i do like my name
At least the guy with the WiFi wasn't rude or anything, just assumed WiFi was like a car
He was really polite. Just didnt understand how wifi works. I dont think people should laugh at him for that, not everyone is tech savy. We all have to start learning about it somewhere.
I pictured the ladies from that commercial where one has made a Facebook wall on her living room wall, and when she verbally unfriends the other lady, Lady 2 says, That’s not how this works! That’s not how any of this works!
How the heck does “low connectivity” get interpreted as “your container of WiFi needs to be refilled”? Some people, man. Some people.
Because people are stupid.
Well... low washer fluid, low oil, low gas... low wifi. So I mean I can see why someone would make that mistake, if they didn't have the slightest idea that wifi is actually a radio signal. And frankly, most people don't. As far as our call centre could figure, most people figured the Internet ran on pixie dust. :/
I mean, the symbol looks kind of like a bottle with fluid in it. Kinda, depending on the OS. Don't know how the little radio logo would look like that.
@@IamCoalfoot I mean, mostly it looks like stacked umbrellas, or a weird slice of pie, lol. But have you ever seen the old icon for "your engine is overheating"? It kind of makes sense that the icon doesn't make sense, if you know what I mean, lol

Oh tech support...sometimes I miss having my own stories from tech support hell. My personal favorite was the financial analyst who called complaining of issues with some application, asking if it was down. After I told him it had been down a few hours back but was restored now, he got quiet for a moment then gave me his "aha" moment. He said "well you're on Eastern time and I'm in California, so if it was affecting you guys a few hours ago, it would just now be down for me." I laughed at what I thought was a good joke, only for him to go off on me for laughing because he was DEAD SERIOUS. I then had the wonderful experience of explaining to a 40 something year old man who is responsible for other peoples' money that being in a different time zone does NOT mean he is talking to the future. Good times.
Good lord, he reached levels of stupidity that shouldn't even be possible :O
That's it. Mr Greystone summon the cylons
@@TheNotoriousDUDE your comment suddenly has me think about the Kung Fu Panda movie where Shifu is like " there is now a level zero"

Hi i didn't even read your comment but it didn't have any replies so I replied to it for you. :)
@@xx_elijah7990 I love how your account still has the about page and channel banner.
I think she suffered from stupid.
I used to work at this advertising place and when I first started (I was the youngest by like 10 years of all employees) my computer was kinda slow, weirdly slow for an iMac and after a while I found that whoever had used it before me had set up over 40 desktops (I usually have three or four just to be able to switch between programs). I brought this to the attention of the art director and they didnt even know you could have several desktops.
"I accidentally dropped it"

I would have responded with something exceptionally snarky about karma and ‘accidental damage.’

MacOS is significantly better than Windows for literally anything to do with software development, unless you're working with .NET... Macbooks also have considerably better displays and keyboards than 99% of other laptops. If you work in tech, it makes a lot more sense to use a Macbook than a Windows based laptop.
jarrod Yeah no, Windows is way more direct and clear on what to do and how to do it.
jarrod MacBooks can’t run scrap mechanic, so they are garbage. Macs are only for people who want to spend $5000 in order to use Facebook. Personally, I have used MacOS, Windows, and ChromeOS. Overall, the best is Windows, and while I cannot speak for Linux, I still am very much a Windows person.
Nothing beats going to your neighbour's house to borrow a cup of Wi-Fi.
Got to love the taste of wifi 😂
Yes I would like a cup of Wi-Fi
"How do I refill my WiFi ?"
*45 seconds of silence*
"Yeah I can direct you on how to refill your WiFi, more than glad to help.
Turn off your computer.
Now unplug it to make sure is disconnected from the wall socket.
Please go ahead and walk to your window and put the computer on the edge of it, so the Sun can charge the WiFi.
Go ahead and push the computer over the window and let it fall. You are too stupid to own one".
They'd probably just drop the monitor out the window instead of the computer.

You have no clue how users are...they think that computers just wear out or something when they get older, I deal with this crap every day.
Based on the title, I now honestly hope that in the future, we invent a way to literally refill the WiFi of a WiFi network. I imagine the fluid would be coloured glowing cyan. And the only way to use the liquid would be to pour it all over a router. It then gets absorbed into the router and you can see the WiFi bars fill up.
It will come in small glass tubes the size of those mini soda cans and have a twist off cap that makes a satisfying fizzy noise when opened. You leave the empty tubes outside for the wifi man to take and your kids can send in the caps for stickers and pizza hut coupons.
Joseph Arellano no, pizza guys.

Wait so you're telling me a windows 10 computer was on for 2 years and was never forced to update??????

@@turkeyboy5543 Oof why not use a vps? I think it might be cheaper than having ur windows desktop on all the time
Open Core It sadly isn’t. At least none of the VPS’ that I’ve seen. The computer I ran it on at the time was one of those ultra-compact desktop toasters that I had upgraded by installing 16 GB of RAM (as opposed to the stock 4) and an SSD to replace the slow HDD. Now I just run it on the same PC that I game on, because it’s simpler and I don’t really need a dedicated server until my bot gets bigger. Thanks for the suggestion though!

Seems like I was the only one who traded the thinner MacBooks for the older white ones with better keys and chargers.

ReplayXPreplay my mother is like this, she’ll be 70 this year. It’s horrible, I’m not the greatest with tech myself so I have my son help her out.
Their defences are something incredible.
My mom calls: "x doesnt work. I says *errror message*"
Me: what did you just before you got error
Mom: nothing
Me. You did something
Then mom gives some explanation.
Last time it took 45mins and screenshots on WA to explain how to assign a programme for opening certain files.
Then she just goes OH!

Did you reboot it?
No.
Reboot and then call me again if doesnt work.
No call.
And the best of them. When things dont work right away, my dad starts angrily tapping things in tablet even he knows nothing about the system. So once my parents were on holiday abroad, mom used tablet as her camera because she had cheap phone.
She calls "your dad started tapping the screen, it said something about resetted to factory settings and i cannot find any pics i have taken".
"Well. Its all gone"
"Whaaat? But there was two years of photos and and"
"Yup. All gone, cannot restore. Thats why i have told you zillion times to make backups or get them printed. Have a nice rest of the holiday"

Comments section: Refill my wife!
Got to share this with you all. Back in the days of the really big floppy disks we had a new school leaver in the tech department. One day the manager saw her with one of the disks and asked her why it was folded in half? Her reply was that she had to send a daily backup to head office but they had run out of the envelopes she normally used so she was going to put it in a smaller ordinary letter envelope and post it. ..............

Being a tech support representative, I relate to this.
oh boy, the reboot one, i've told my dad like 3 times now he has to actually shut off the laptop he has when he's done with it, and exactly why in layman's terms (basically telling him the laptop needs "sleep" and only gets it when shut down.) he's gone through 3 laptops so far "because they're slow".

because apple products are designed to slow down after like a year to "save battery life" and apple products are generally inferior to a mid level pc build
Because Apple users are the only ones who think that the newest is the best, and they must have the best!
Because Apple users are elitists and think that having $1,000+ phone makes them better than everyone else even tho iPhones are built to die so you'll have to replace it with the new $1,000+ phone they release the very next year....

That Computer: kill me
The lady: Later
Years ago we had bad storms that took out our electricity for about 24 hours. My daughter, at the time about 3 years old, woke up and wanted to watch a video (her favorite at the time was either Schoolhouse Rock or Yellow Submarine -gotta teach 'em young!). I explained to her there was no electricity and she would need to do something else. She then asked if she could play the turtle game on the computer (Turtle Oddesy!) and I explained she needed electricity for that also. She asked me if I would play with her but I told her we had electricity at work and I needed to go in but Grandma would be able to play with her. Just as I was leaving she comes to me and says with the most serious look in her eye and says 'Mommy, would you bring home some 'lectricity from work so I can watch SpongeBob?
Perfect timing, the power was restored just before I got home. I was totally her hero that day!
