No. You don't.
You don't have the most current version. Why do you say that if you don't really know?
Ok, so today... today I'm talking to a customer. It's way too early in the morning. I have a headache and the customer didn't help. So I ask him: "What version of -this product- do you have on your system?"
He answers, "I have the latest version. Version 5.0.5.366...." Then he proceeds to talk and talk and talk. It takes him 5 minutes to pause long enough for me to say anything. Come on!
So finally, I can say something, but it's not important right now to tell him that he's an idiot and has like, 4 versions back. No sir. You do not have the most current version. Not by a long shot.
The worst part about this is that this is a common issue. Many many people do exactly the same thing. I can't believe they have the gall to call and not have the information they need ready. Or in the very least, be willing to say they don't know.
I much prefer to hear..."I don't know" and have the customer be willing and ready to find out then the "I have the latest version..." while not actually knowing they do for sure, without even knowing what version they actually have!!

I found out recently that I have breast cancer.The cost will be somewhere between $4,500-7,000.
If anyone would like to donate to my cancer treatment, you can click below. There is no set amount, anything you can spare will help, and any surplus will be donated to cancer research. Thanks!
Disclosure:
I do accept money to blog about certain products, websites and services. However, they will not always be marked as such. I have some reasons for this: First-if I wouldn't purchase, use or try a product or service; I won't write about it. Second-if I don't have a personal experience to share about the product, relative to a friend or family member who have or might use the product...I won't blog about it. Third, just because I talk about a product or place a link in a blog post--it doesn't mean that it was a paid post. There are times that a link is just relevant or fun to add!! And finally, all stories, experiences or problems that are blogged about, are true. The names may have been changed (to protect the innocent). At times some friendly exaggeration may be used, but really, if you read it here--it probably happened!! So yes, you will find product placement on my blog, but, you will get an honest review regardless of the amount received. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to place a comment or two or ten!! (I <3 Comments!) Thanks!!
