Went with a friend during lunch (he is a MS employee) to the ATT store to get some cases for our phones. The sales guy was harping on the iPhone and he was talking smack on Windows in general (vulnerable, etc)[it was a fun conversation for all involved]. I shot back with patching helps and get MSE for AV and he goes "MS won't let me update cause of my hacked copy of Windows". I then asked my friend, "Hey, don't you get an employee discount?" and he said "Yes, that would be Microsoft". The look on that poor guys face was priceless. I asked him how it felt to be back in high school. His reply was that he was having flashbacks. I think we ruined his day.
