General Motors doesn`t have a "help line" for people who don`t know how to drive, because people don`t buy cars like they buy computers -- but imagine if they did...
HELPLINE: "General Motors HelpLine, how can I help you?"
CUSTOMER: "My car ran fine for a week, and now it won`t go anywhere!"
HELPLINE: "Is the gas tank empty?"
CUSTOMER: "Huh? How do I know!?"
HELPLINE: "There`s a little gauge on the front panel, with a needle, and markings from `E` to `F.` Where is the needle pointing?"
CUSTOMER: "It`s pointing to `E.` What does that mean?"
HELPLINE: "It means that you have to visit a gasoline vendor, and purchase some more gasoline. You can install it yourself, or pay the vendor to install it for you."
CUSTOMER: "What!?" I paid $12,000. for this car! Now you tell me that I have to keep buying more components? I want a car that comes with everything built in!"
