It's actually Nagy's catch phrase, I believe [citation needed]
The whole site looks like it is designed for IE 6. And the handling matches the look.
Seriously, it starts with the login procedure - I don't want to enter a username to login. And the password can only contain characters and numbers.
And don't even try to get a tax receipt for your online order - There is no consistent menu guidance and you receive it as a PDF. One A4 page per receipt, for a single ticket each. And they're only available for 30 days, afterwards you're greeted with a default empty PDF.
And that's just the things I remember right now, there are dozens of others.

Just got email from recruiter and found it hilarious.
A jobless man applied for the position of 'office boy' at Microsoft.
The HR manager interviewed him, then gave him a test: clean the floor. The man passed the test with flying colors.
"You are hired," HR manager informed the applicant, "give me your e-mail address, and I'll send you the application for employment, as well as the date you should report for work.
The man replied " I don't have a computer, or an email!"
"I'm sorry," said the HR manager. "If you don't have an email, that means you do not exist. And we cannot hire persons who do not exist."
The man was very disappointed.
He didn't know what to do. He only had $10 with him. Once that is spent, he won't have any money to buy any food.
He went to the supermarket and bought a crate of tomatoes with his $10.
He went from door to door and sold the tomatoes in less than two hours. He doubled his money.
He repeated the operation three times, and returned home with $60. He realized that he can survive
this way. He started to go everyday earlier, and return late.
He doubled or tripled his money every day. Soon, he bought a cart, then a truck. In a very short time, he had his own fleet of delivery vehicles.
Five years later, the man became one of the biggest food retailers in the U. S. He started to plan his family's future, and decided to have a life insurance.
He called an insurance broker, and chose a protection plan.
At the end of the conversation, the broker asked him for his email address.
The man replied: ' I don't have an email.'
The broker was dumbfounded. "You don't have an email, and yet have succeeded in building an empire. Can you imagine what you could have been if you had an email?," he exclaimed.
The man thought for a while, and replied, "an office boy at Microsoft!"

What, did you expect anything coming from a recruiter's mouth to be even remotely original?

Even in this form it is old (at least 4 years), but it is actually a remake of this, from around 1930: sinden.org: "The Verger" by W Somerset Maugham[^]

Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

When I was somewhat younger, one of the richest men in Pompey was a scrap dealer who couldn't read or write, and honestly never saw a need for it.
I remember well him telling me that, with all my highfalutin education, I should read that story...
... Because he couldn't! We pissed ourselves laughing.
An eye-opener, though, on what is and can be important in life.

Not to be pedantic, but if he doubled $10 thrice then he would have $80.

To be even more pedantic, it didn't say that exactly, it only said he returned home with $60. He could've spent the difference.

It's all good until you learn that office boy is an euphemism for senior software designer.

Do male deer have buck teeth?
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Those that don't are Fawned upon by the Does.
Alas, in the case of deer, they're in a rut because there are no horny Does.*
Later we may have a heated discussion on this.

There are exceptions, such as John Deeres which have mechanical teeth despite requiring many bucks to obtain.

MeThinks OriginalGriff hides when he posts these puns, lest he be hunted; no worries, though, OG, for fear of being shot, for, deer are way more tasty, so I've heard.
