I don't know if it's just me with my friends and family. But, almost without exception anytime I am asked to explain something I get a
face. And a pause. Then I have to explain it all over again in a moresimple facet. I find this really aggravating. Many times will just say forget it. Let me fix it, or due it. Or just say forget about it. This is especiallytrue when dealing with anything to do with electronics. Anything at all. I really never make things technical. I actually think I have an average vocabulary atbest for having a BA in business.
Just One Example. At a family party yesterday. A friend of mine wanted to setup Guitar Hero 3 for the kids. She plugged in two control pads and it didn'twork. Keep in mind this is her ps2 and her games. That she has had for at least two years. Loading screen does its thing. She grabs the two guitars for thegames. She then hits all the frets on the guitar nothing happens. It's now considered "broken." I'm called to "fix it". I ask ifthey have the receivers for the Guitars.
from everyone. I pause and change what I say. Do you have the littleboxes that go into the ps2. They have Red Lights when plugged in. One of my cousins yells out. He means does it have batteries in it. At first I get
. Then just
. No the receivers. The small boxes next to the tvhave to be plugged into the ps2. Again
from my whole family. Then I get on the move. I'll do it. (Don't even get me started on how I blew there mind with the code to unlock all the songs.) My friend is a lawyer for a prestigious firm.
