Mrs Q, the [at][at][at][at], broke my Surface Pro 3 a few months ago, denies it was her, even though she admits to moving it, and she was the only person in the house.
Anyway.
14k to get a replacement under warranty.
This has made me a. not repair it and simply turn off all the touch features and b. look passively for a replacement, given the the machine itself is only 6 months old to me.
I was at IT City at The Mall Bang Kapi last week and asked about a Dell PC with a stylus, the chickenhead serving me told me it didnt have one, even though the picture on the screen showed one, there was one on the sticker on the palm rest, and there was a hole in the side for one - I pointed this out, and he went to get his mate, who told me there wasn't one either.
Back in there tonight, decided to try again, possibly the same chickenhead told me that there isn't a stylus, I showed him the photos, the specs etc, he wandered off playing with his phone - after calling him a [at][at][at][at] loudly, and Mrs Q getting upset with me, I set her onto the guy who was stood next to us on his phone
We want to see the stylus, WHY???, because we want to see the size of it and how it works with this pc.
Away he goes to ask someone else, still playing with his cunting phone - he speaks to another chickenhead, who goes looking in cupboard scratching his head. He reappears with a stylus, which even fro the 20m metres or so away I can see is far larger than the hole in this pc.
Chickenhead number 2 proudly brings it to me, puts a battery in and touches it to the screen, nowt happens. I ask him how it fits in the laptop, he, as I had hoped, tries to fit this large stylus into a very small hole, twice!!
I point out that he thinks this is the wrong one and possibly for the unit over there.
At this point he wanders off.
Behind us is a man, doing the books, in my terrible Thai, I ask is he the floor manager for this area, yes he is.
I introduce the floor manager to my four year old daughter, I explain to her that he is the boss of these people, She knows I'm the boss these days, so does a double check with me - like you are the boss, Daddy? Yes, well done.
The man at this point is looking pleased with himself, he tries a bit of English with me, it is quite good, I ask if he knows the term - to fire someone, he does, and now looks worried.
I ask my little girl who the man is, she proudly tells me that he is the boss of these people working here - good girl.
I tell her, nice and loudly, and with the manager present - that if he was my manager, I would fire him, and the staff from this area - his face is a picture, even better when Little Q looks at him and days - My daddy would fire you.
Spineless twat - couldn't even be bothered to step in for a sale.
I get that they only want to sell tvs to people because it takes no effort, I know their pay is shit, but ffs it could be a 30s sale with me, show me it works, I take it. Easy.
Saying that, I bought my mum a phone there two weeks ago - 30 minutes to buy a fucking phone - 30 fucking minutes. Why does it take so long to open a box, check it is there, give me the phone, take my cash and go.
