"Job Abbreviations"
The interviewer examined the job application
then turned to the prospective employee.
"I see you have put 'ASAP' down for the date
you are available to start, meaning as soon
as possible, of course. However, I see you've
put 'AMAP' down for required salary. I don't believe
I've ever seen that before, what does it mean?"
The applicant replied, "As Much as Possible!"

"More Tech Support"
Tech Support: "I need you to right-click on the
Open Desktop."
Customer: "OK."
Tech Support: "Did you get a pop-up menu?"
Customer: "No."
Tech Support: "OK. Right click again. Do you
see a pop-up menu?"
Customer: "No."
Tech Support: "Ok, sir. Can you tell me what
you have done up until this point?"
Customer: "Sure, you told me to write 'click'
and I wrote 'click'."
(At this point I had to put the caller on hold to
tell the rest of the tech support staff what had
happened. I couldn't, however, stop from
giggling when I got back to the call.)
Tech Support: "Ok, did you type 'click' with the
keyboard?"
Customer: "I have done something dumb, right?"
