went with the flow after thick locals misspelled it a gazillion times

no word of a lie....

i took a laptop into pcworld for them to fix. they took my details and said call back in a week. i did. didn't have the relevant piece of paperwork, "no problem, what is your surname"

so i told him...

"we have no computers in for repair under that surname?"

huh? i brought it in last week myself

*rechecks his screen*

"no, definitely none under that name" "can you write it down for me please"

erm, ok

*writes it down*

"aha, i see whats happened now, my colleague has entered the *W* as a double UU".

true.

FFS! a f**king..... HELLO?....... WHAT THE FUCK SORT OF MORONS do they employ in there?
