Windows IT Support is Associated with Crashing

Cardoe wrote this terribly early in the morning:

So I just saw a US Air Force (hooah!) ad on TV and the guy says “Damn it’s crashed again” and the kid leans in and says “Reboot with F8 and pick Safe Mode” and then he goes on to become an Air Force Airborne Ops Officer but it’s pretty obvious that they were talking about Windows there.

I just thought it was funny.

    That commercial is very old, I’ve seen it many more times than I’d like to admit :-).
    And yes, fixing basic Windows problems leads the way to a lucrative hax0r Air Force career.

    (I doubt the police software would even run in Safe mode… that’s a sure fire way to fix it on the go…)
    Gotta love your corporate advertising.
