FINALLY, ERROR MESSAGES WE CAN ACTUALLY UNDERSTAND
Old Harold
I was having trouble with my computer. So I called Harold the computer guy, to come over.
Harold clicked a couple of buttons and solved the problem.
He gave me a bill for a minimum service call.
As he was walking away, I called after him, 'So, what was wrong?'
He replied, 'It was an ID ten T error.'
I didn't want to appear stupid, but nonetheless inquired, 'An, ID ten T error?
What's that .. in case I need to fix it again?'
Harold grinned.... 'Haven't you ever heard of an ID ten T error before?'
'No,' I replied.'Write it down,' he said, 'and I think you'll figure it out.'
So I wrote down . I D 1 0 T
I used to like Harold.
