  • Software Guy Proposal Letter

    Have you ever wondered how a software guy would
    propose?

    Well, here is a template …

    Dear Ms. ABC,

    Baby, I’ve seen you yesterday while surfing on
    local railway platform and realized that you are
    the only site I was browsing for. For long time,
    I have been lonely, trying to find a bug in my
    life and you can be a real debugger for me now.
    My life is just an uncompiled program without you
    which never produces an executable code and hence
    is useless.
    You are not only beautiful by face but all your
    ActiveX controls are attractive as well.
    Your smile is so delightful which encourages
    me and gives power to me equal to thousands of
    mainframes processing power. When you looked
    at me last evening, I felt like all my program
    modules were running smoothly and giving expected
    results. /* which I never experienced before */.
    With this letter, I just want to convey to you
    that, if we linked together, I’ll provide you all
    objects & libraries necessary for a human being to
    live an error free life. Also don’t bother about the
    firewall which may be created by our parents as I’ve
    strong hacking capabilities by which I’ll ultimately
    break their security passwords and make them agree
    for our marriage. I anticipate that nobody is
    already logged in to your database so that my connect script
    will fail. And its all certain that if this happened
    to me, I will crash my system beyond recovery.

    Kindly interpret this letter
    Only yours,
    Software Professional

  • IT Support

    Dear Tech Support,

    Last year I upgraded from Boyfriend 5.0 to Husband 1.0 and noticed that the
    new program began making an expected changes to the accounting modules,
    limiting access to flower and jewellery applications that had operated
    flawlessly under Boyfriend 5.0. In addition, Husband 1.0 uninstalled many
    other valuable programs, such as Romance 9.9 but installed undesirable
    programs such as NBA 3.0. Conversation 8.0 no longer runs and HouseCleaning
    2.6 simply crashes the system. I’ve tried running Nagging 5.3 to fix these
    problems, but to no avail.

    Desperate Wife.
    **********************************************************************
    Dear Desperate Wife,
    Keep in mind, Boyfriend 5.0 is an entertainment package, while Husband 1.0
    is an operating system. Try to enter the command: C:/ I THOUGHT YOU LOVED ME
    and install Tears 6.2. Husband 1.0 should then automatically run the
    applications: Guilty 3.0 and Flowers 7.0. But remember, overuse can cause
    Husband 1.0 to default to GrumpySilence 2.5, Happyhour 7.0 or Beer 6.1. Beer
    6.1 is a very bad program that will create “Snoring Loudly” wav files. DO
    NOT install MotherInLaw 1.0 or reinstall another Boyfriend program. These
    are not supported applications and will crash Husband 1.0. In summary,
    Husband 1.0 is a great program, but it does have limited memory and cannot
    learn new applications quickly. Consider buying additional software to
    improve performance. I personally recommend Lingerie 5.3 and
    Keep-a-nice-body 10.1.

  • Talking Frog

    A man was crossing a road one day when a frog called out to him and said:
    “If you kiss me, I’ll turn into a beautiful princess.”

    He bent over, picked up the frog, and put it in his pocket.

    The frog spoke up again and said: “If you kiss me and turn me back into a
    beautiful princess, I will tell everyone how smart and brave you are and
    how you are my hero.”

    The man took the frog out of his pocket, smiled at it, and returned it to
    his pocket.

    The frog spoke up again and said: “If you kiss me and turn me back into a
    beautiful princess, I will be your loving companion for an entire week.”

    The man took the frog out of his pocket, smiled at it, and returned it to
    his pocket. The frog then cried out: “If you kiss me and turn me back
    into a princess, I’ll stay with you for a year and do ANYTHING you want.”

    Again the man took the frog out, smiled at it, and put it back into his
    pocket.

    Finally, the frog asked: “What is the matter? I’ve told you I’m a
    beautiful princess, that I’ll stay with you for a year and do anything
    you want. Why won’t you kiss me?”

    The man said: “Look, I’m a computer programmer. I don’t have time for a
    girlfriend, but a talking frog is cool.”

    Letme know how it goes.

    10 minutes later.

    Tech: Well, what version of DOS are you using?
    User: MS-DOS 6.22.
    Tech: That’s your problem there. That version of DOS didn’t come with
    NOSMOKE. Contact Microsoft and ask them for a patch that will give you the
    file. Let me know how it goes.

    1 hour later.
    User: I need a new power supply.
    Tech: How did you come to that conclusion?
    User: Well, I rang Microsoft and told him about what you said, and he
    started asking questions about the make of power supply.
    Tech: Then what did he say?
    User: He told me that my power supply isn’t compatible with NOSMOKE.

  • The Cleaner

    Grab a coffee and read this, it will put some perspective back into your
    day…

    An unemployed man went to apply for a job with Microsoft thinking his
    best chance was as a janitor.

    The employment manager arranged for him to take an aptitude test per the
    company guide line: (Section XYZ: Floors, sweeping and cleaning).

    After the test, the manager said, “You will be employed at minimum wage,
    $5.15 an hour. Let me have your e-mail address, so that I can send you
    information and authorization to report for work on your first day.

    Taken aback, the man protested that he had neither a computer nor an
    e-mail address. To this the MS manager replies, “Well, then, that means
    that you virtually don’t exist and can therefore hardly expect to be
    employed, certainly not at Microsoft!

    Stunned, the man left. Not knowing where to turn and having only $10 in
    his wallet, he decided to buy a 25 lb box of tomatoes at the
    supermarket. Within less than 2 hours, he sold all the tomatoes
    individually at 100% profit. Repeating the process several times more
    that day, he ended up with almost $100 before going to sleep that night.

    And thus it dawned on him that he could quite easily make a living
    selling tomatoes. Getting up early every day and going to bed late, he
    multiplied his profits quickly. After a short time he acquired a cart to
    transport several dozen boxes of tomatoes, and acquired his inventory
    wholesale only to have to trade it in again on pick-up truck to support
    his expanding business.

    By the end of the second year, he was the owner of a fleet of pick-up
    trucks and managed a staff of a hundred former unemployed people, all
    selling tomatoes in various communities.

    Planning for the future of his wife and children, he decided to buy some
    life insurance. Consulting with an insurance adviser, he picked an
    insurance plan to fit his new circumstances. At the end of the detailed
    conversation, the insurance agent asked him for his e-mail address in
    order to send the final documents electronically.

    When the man replied that he had no e-mail, the adviser is stunned,
    “What, you don’t have e-mail? How on earth have you managed to amass
    such wealth without the Internet, e-mail and e-commerce? Just imagine
    where you would be now, if you had been connected to the Internet from
    the very start!”

    After a moment of thought, the wealthy tomato dealer replied, “Why, of
    course! I would be $5.15 an hour a floor cleaner at Microsoft!”

    Moral of this story:
    1. The Internet, e-mail and e-commerce do not need to rule your life.
    2. If you don’t have e-mail, but work hard, you can still become a
    millionaire.
    3. Seeing that you got this story via e-mail, you’re probably closer to
    becoming a janitor than you are to becoming a millionaire.
    4. If you do have a computer and e-mail, you have already been taken to
    the cleaners by Microsoft.
