What Dell Support Thinks of Dell


What Dell Support Thinks of Dell 03/30/2005 04:59 PM

In an InfoWorld Gripe Line Blog, anonymous Dell employees are asked to make their feelings known about working for Dell. As we all know, Dell moved their tech support to India and they have employees in other parts of the world now too. It sounds like the new users dumb questions and working with Windows constant crashing and errors have driven even the Indian support workers to the brink of giving up. Here are a few quotes from the above story..

Back about eighteen months ago, the comments started off pretty apologetic about the Dell support gripes readers were airing. A poster who said he or she had just resigned after six months with Dell support in Hyderabad said that Dell technicians would sometimes know right off that a problem required a replacement component, "but we are bound by company policy which prohibits us from dispatching components until we finish the script given us by Dell management," the poster wrote. "I basically felt really bad in situations wherein I had to make really old people open up their computers, and I did in fact meet people on the phone who would be in tears if we told them that they need to open their machines. 

"I too am working in Dell tech support," the poster said, saying his job had been to route calls to the proper support group. "The great thing is that tomorrow is my last day here. Great because this by far has been one of the least gratifying and frustrating positions I have ever held. Yes, there are extensive and considerable problems with Dell tech support. Their outsourcing to India is not even the least of them. Every day is a continuous assault by absolutely clueless and irate customers and an ineffective phone-based support system that is enough to make anyone crack. I'm saying that it all sucks: Dell's systems and their support and the morons who purchase them ... So many times I've had to restrain myself from telling customers who are whining about what a piece their Dell is that, hey, guess you should've bought a Mac. Goodbye, Dell!"

The end of the line

« In the fog, at the Arabia terminus of tram 6, is Light X by Kazushi Nakada which was unveiled on 25 January 2005. »

There is no X in Light X and there is precious little light as well. I was lured to the end of tram 6 just to see something glow in the dark by a blurb I saw in a neighbourhood paper and I was sorely disappointed. Why bother spending some outrageous amount of money on a bit of public artwork that involves light if you place it in an area where street lights drown out any light it might actually be emitting which, in this case, was scant? The fog and the black and white film make it look a lot more interesting than it actually is.

The apartment building next to the big fluorescent tube of Arabia was a nice surprise. On two sides of the building were some lights that vaguely suggested a caduceus but the roof had a really funky brightly coloured spinning air vent that could have been designed by Gaudí. I didn't take any pictures of it as I was on my way somewhere and didn't take my tripod with me, but its uniqueness in a sea of boring modern glass and brick featureless buildings certainly made me very curious to know more about it.

And, a few new books of interest. I'm going to be very sad when shipping costs make it just too expensive to bother ordering books from Amazon at 25%-50% less than Akateeminen prices with the exchange factored in. I think that will be very soon.


On-line or Off?

Lilia Efimova (fresh from her trip to Moscow) writes.....

Martin picks up my yesterday's note about the need to change my usual "everything web-based" working style since I got TabletPC and explains his struggles and solutions for synchronising online and offline data. Given lots of interests we share it's not surprising that Martin reframes it as more general question:

I wonder how Personal Information Management Software will develop in the future. How are we going to cope with the different spaces we are in and the accessibiloty of our online and offline data? Shall we just put everything on the web and hope for permanent broadband connectivity anywhere? (Nice idea, but how are you going to survive the next five years while this is not an option?) How are you managing your data? Where do you keep it? How do you make it accessible, for you, for others?


(If your story is long and you don't want to post it as a comment do email me! I can put together some of your writings in a seperate entry or republish your story as an own article if you like.)


I'd love to hear your thoughts as well. I guess it's not much about the software, but our ways of using it :)



[Mathemagenic ]

YES! It's always about how we use software, it's just that the nerds have so much to say about what they're doing - they often lose track of why.

I've started to use an Xdrive account - to back everything up and have it readily accessible - if I don't have my laptopwith me.

I've switched to MT for blogging and I have an ODDpost account for email - which I use as my backup mail.

But I still have Outlook as my primary account and make CD backups of everything on my portable laptop. So I'm still tethered to the off-line model - even though I've been on-line since 1994 with ISDN or better.

I've actually gotten a lot of work done while traveling - as I WASN'T able to blog and check email every :10 minutes.

The gap between on-line and off-line


The gap between on-line and off-line 07/19/2004 11:30 AM

Jeremy Zawodny brings up an interesting point - which will be a major architectual issue moving forward.

It was triggered by ODDpost and the realization that full "in-line" browser apps are coming into reality. Folks like Laszlo Systems will also help make this future become true!

Here's Jereny post (my bit below......)

Oddpost, DHTML, and off-line Web Applications

As you may have guessed, I didn't know much about Oddpost until recently. But since they're now part of the collective, I had the opportunity to meet with a few of the Oddpost folks on Friday.

Aside from the getting an idea of how all their server-side stuff works (it's a classic example of "do the simplest thing that could possibly work" and I love that aspect of it), which was the real point of the meeting, I got to actually see the product first hand. And I left the meeting in amazement at what they were able to do using only a web browser and a lot of fancy DHTML wizardry. I mean, this thing looked and mostly acted like a real, native desktop application.

Really. A few times I caught myself thinking it was a "fat" client, only to look at the title bar and realize it was an IE window. But other than that, it was hard to tell at time. It's really that good.

The only downside to this I can see is that as the gap between "desktop" and "web based" applications closes, users won't understand the difference. The Oddpost client, for example, feels like a fancy mail and RSS application. But take it offline (such as cross-country flight) and suddenly it does a lot less that one might expect. Knowing that it's a web-based system with most of the data stored on the server, this comes as no shock to most anyone reading this. But to average folks like my Mom, well... that's probably a whole different story.

This makes me wonder how we're going to bridge the gap or if that gap will become irrelevant as the odds of having an Internet connection in any random location continue to increase.

[Jeremy Zawodny]

Marc's bit starts here....

So it's great to see major companies like Yahoo (and their brains like Jeremy) wake up to this issue - which first struck me - when I first discovered browsers - oh what was it - 10 years ago?

For all the benefits of the AlwaysOn world and browsers - they're useless once they're disconnected. Built-in features to download and cache content have been around and as the comments to Jeremy's post attest - lots of companies have come up with work arounds and trained their people in how to deal with this issue.

But clearly the time will come when "intelligent" virtual file systems will do the work or us!

Why put teh onus on the poor human to worry about:

    - whether or not I'm on-line, within shouting distance of a Wifi connection of STILL on-line?
    - where-ever the hell my files are? That's something for computers to worry about!
    - whether something is cached, where it's coming from,l what my connection speed is - or anythign else having to do with bandwidth
    - and finally - just amke it work - dammit!

It's time for technology to bend over and work for humans, rather than the other way around.

I dream of the day when major technological resources can be put towards solving this issue - and NO - you don't get to patent it!

I've seen others claim they have patents on this sort of functionality - or similar "Internet File System" kind of solutions.

Add them to the list of innovation stoppage - and send it to the EFF.
