conversation with IT guy:

deird1IT guy: "Hi, what can I do for you?"
Me: "Yeah, hi. My browser needs to be upgraded."
IT guy: "Huh? What do you mean?"
Me: "My... browser? It... um... needs upgrading. I need a better browser."
IT guy: "Really? Why?"
Me: "Because this one is old and doesn't work?" *is getting confused*
IT guy: "Oh, so you want a new one?"
Me: "Yes please! ...any chance I could get Firefox instead of Internet Explorer?"
IT guy: "Hmm. I'll have to get approval from your manager."
So...
1) Why else would I want a new browser? ("Because I'm trying to collect all ten so I can win a prize!" ???)
2) You're working in IT, and you don't know what I mean by "upgrading a browser"? Really?
3) My manager has to approve me using Firefox? WTF?
These people confuse me.
