OT:Funny
I don't know how they wrote this with a straight face. This was a real
memo sent out by a computer company (IBM) to its
employees in all seriousness. It went to all field engineers about a
computer peripheral problem. The author of this memo
was quite genuine. The engineers rolled on the floor! Especially note
the last couple of sentences.
Re: Replacement of Mouse *****.
If a mouse fails to operate or should it perform erratically, it may
need a ball replacement. Mouse ***** are now available as
FRU (Field Replacement Units). Because of the delicate nature of this
procedure, replacement of mouse ***** should only be
attempted by properly trained personnel.
Before proceeding, determine the type of mouse ***** by examining the
underside of the mouse
Domestic ***** will be larger and harder than foreign *****. Ball
removal procedures differ depending upon the manufacturer of
the mouse. Foreign ***** can be replaced using the pop off method.
Domestic ***** are replaced by using the twist off method.
Mouse ***** are not usually static sensitive. However, excessive
handling can result in sudden discharge.
Upon completion of ball replacement, the mouse may be used immediately.
It is recommended that each person have a pair of
spare ***** for maintaining optimum customer satisfaction.
Any customer missing his ***** should contact the local personnel in
charge of removing and replacing these necessary items.
Please keep in mind that a customer without properly working ***** is an
unhappy customer.
