Background: I work in an inbound call center for a nationwide technology chain. We provide support for all products the company's stores sell.


The other day I was working on our text chat service and it got extremely busy. As a result of having to deal with as many as 8 people at a time, I got a little short with some of them.

One person in particular had entered as his problem: new computer, no sound.

He had purchased a desktop PC and a monitor.
