Hi, my name is Bill, and I'll be your Support
- Waiter.
What seems to be the problem?
- Patron:
There's a fly in my soup!
- Waiter:
Try again, maybe the fly won't be there this time.
- Patron:
No, it's still there.
- Waiter:
Maybe it's the way you're using the soup; try eating it with a fork instead.
- Patron:
Even when I use the fork, the fly is still there.
- Waiter:
Maybe the soup is incompatible with the bowl; what kind of bowl are you using?
- Patron:
A soup bowl!
- Waiter:
Hmmm, that should work. Maybe it's a configuration problem;how was the bowl set up?
- Patron:
You brought it to me on a saucer; what has that to do with the fly in my soup?!
- Waiter:
Can you remember everything you did before you noticed the fly in your soup?
- Patron:
I sat down and ordered the Soup of the Day!
- Waiter:
Have you considered upgrading to the latest Soup of the Day?
- Patron:
You have more than one Soup of the Day each day??
- Waiter:
Yes, the Soup of the Day is changed every hour.
- Patron:
Well, what is the Soup of the Day now?
- Waiter:
The current Soup of the Day is tomato.
- Patron:
Fine. Bring me the tomato soup, and the check. I'm running late now.
Waiter leaves and returns with another bowl of soup and the check.
- Waiter:
Here you are, Sir. The soup and your check.
- Patron:
This is potato soup.
- Waiter:
Yes, the tomato soup wasn't ready yet.
- Patron:
Well, I'm so hungry now, I'll eat anything.
Waiter leaves.
- Patron:
Waiter! There's a gnat in my soup!
