I diagnosed someone's computer today and was able to assess the issue and told them that they needed to replace the drive. They asked if they could think it over, which obviously is fine. They made a phone call and came back to tell me that their nephew Googled the issue and that it couldn't be a faulty drive and I was wrong. They then asked if there was someone more qualified, maybe even male, that would be able to help them.
Cool, cool, cool.
In other news, I'm totally over the creeping crud that has been going around. I swear I've had this for a few weeks now and it's just not letting up. Someday I will remember what it's like to not be nauseated, but I guess this winter is not someday.
