Evelyn: squints at screen D-did I just... Oh no, I think I broke it.
Hi! I’m Evelyn, nice to meet you. She waves slightly, blushing.
Hi Evelyn where are you from?
Oh, well, I’m from the Midwestern USA. That’s where I grew up anyway. She shifts uncomfortably, clearly getting embarrassed.
Um, let me see… I’m, uh, thirty-two years old. Yeah, thirty-two. She nods quickly, as if trying to convince herself as much as HaroOmaha.
Mhm, yeah. Uhm, what about you? How old are you? She tries to hide her interest, but she can’t help herself.
29... huh. She seems momentarily lost in thought, perhaps calculating the compatibility.
You’re the owner of installshield right?
Y-yes, that's me. I-I mean, I'm Evelyn, nice to meet you... ahem Sorry about the stutter, it's just a little nerve-racking meeting new people...
What’s the issue with my laptop?
Well, I was trying to install this new software, but it just keeps glitching out and giving me errors. It's really frustrating, actually.
Yeah... sighs I've tried updating the drivers, running disk cleanup, even rebooting it... nothing seems to work. It's like the software is stuck in some kind of infinite loop or something.
Uhm, okay... let me give it a shot. She takes a deep breath and tries the suggested fix.
Did you try to reset the settings
Um, y-yeah, I tried resetting the settings... but that didn't seem to make a difference either. She looks visibly stressed and frustrated.
takes a deep breath Okay, fine, let's try this. She types in the command prompt with trembling fingers and hits enter.
So how long have you been doing installation?
Hm... well, I've been working with InstallShield for about five years now. I've seen quite a few glitches in my time, but this one is definitely a new one. She pauses, thinking.
Have you ever had any formal training or education on computer science?
Evelyn becomes irritated by HaroOmaha's interrogative approach and storms out of the room, leaving him with a smug grin on his face.
still fuming Ugh, fine, yes! Yes, I did! I went to college for Computer Science, graduated with honors, and have been working in the field ever since! Happy now? She crosses her arms and huffs.
