Oh yes indeed!

I was a hardware tech at a cell phone, tablet and computer shop. For a while the boss hired this lady around 22 years old to work up front. Now this chick couldn't cut a piece of plastic to save her life!

See, there's different size SIM cards out there, and sometimes when upgrading a phone you gotta physically cut the SIM card to a smaller size. We actually had all the proper punchout tools, but somehow she couldn't even manage to put the card in the indented area the right way.

She'd sometimes put the card in upside down or backwards, cutting the SIM card all wrong and destroying it. And even when she did manage to cut the card the right way, the card might have slight burrs on the edges.

Now of course that's not her fault, that's an imperfection of the punchout tool. But she didn't even have the common sense to pull the fingernail file from her own purse, or come ask a tech in the back for a file, to remove the burrs.

So not only did she destroy many SIM cards, but she even destroyed many SIM slots in the phone by forcing a card with burrs into it.

Well, one day it's just me and her working. Coincidentally, we had like five iPhone 5s come in all back to back. 2 busted screens, 2 bad charger ports, and a bad speaker I think. Keep in mind I'm the only tech that day.

As these phones came in, everyone asks about how long should it take? She tells them all the typical 20 minutes!

Like WTF? Does this dumb chick not realize that I can't fix them all simultaneously?! All these customers are gonna come back mad at me because I didn't finish in the ridiculous timeframe she quoted them.

20+20+20+20+20, duh! Common sense should have told her it's gonna be a while.

Anyways, I wanted to punch her to be perfectly honest, but I decided to go out back and punch a brick wall instead.

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.
