Kachi PC

First off can we realize that there are American peeps that may want to use PC services here. so when I call can you answer the phone by verifying that this is in fact KACHI P C café? Instead. if it wasn’t for the fact that I can understand a Korean phone greeting, I might assume I called some old Asian dude’s house in error.
Its a PC café. Buy time on these unique little plastic cards alike credit cards or library cards. For example for $ 5 you can get about 150 minutes of PC time. Stick the card into the little card reader connected to the PC and wahla! the PC allows you to use it.
BUT
Before you do this. PLEASE! adhere to my instructions first. First check your seat. Make sure its a seat you would want to spend time in. Second, turn on the PC. Most of the time they leave the PCs in the off position. Thereby using up some of your time. Make sure you turn it on first. Now make sure that little LED light on the monitor shows you that the monitor is on also. Also turn on the speakers and make sure you don’t hear a hissing sound, which is a clear indicator that they are crap. If its crap you hear. move to another PC. Repeat the whole process. Now at this point your monitor is on and you can hear Windows kicking in. Hit enter a few times so that you get passed the Windows login screen. I know I know, you can’t see the screen yet. Listen. I’m trying to save you precious time on that little card. Ok. so you hear the typical Windows sound. which lets you know that Windows is up and running. Now. stick in your card.
For FUCKS SAKE!!! The screen is all blurry OR the colors are out of whack.
Now, what you say? Hit setup on the monitor. What’s that? The friggin language is set to something other than English! Of course! Its set to Polish, Chinese or maybe even Korean. Who would do that! Well the locals that use that specific PC ever freakin day these game geeks go there. They purposely change the language on the monitor and then when they are about to leave, they mess up the view settings. This allows «their» PC to stay unused and ready for them, when they walk in.
Its bullshit. I wish management would do something about it, but. that ain’t going to happen. If they really cared about their PCs’s more, shit would be upgraded, the chairs and tables would be burned and replaced. Seriously, you sit in their chairs for even ten minutes, I promise you, your skin will crawl. It smells of fowl old cigarette smoke. After about 40 minutes you start to scratch around your head, arms and legs. Now you feel as if your body has ticks, bed bugs, critters crawling upon you. A staph infection in wait. Look at the hardware. think its ever been wiped down?
Hell no.
Think you’ll ask the counter person for help? Usually she’s playing in a LAN game. Paying more attention to the game than to you and your needs. Due to the PC bullshit above, I had to switch PC’s 7x times just to find one semi-​working PC.
Bathroom. Why the hell is there a urinal opposite of a toilet? What moronic plumber installed that disaster?
About 5 – 6 years ago. these guys owned a pretty awesome PC café in Chicago. The problem with PC cafes alike their first location was that no one ever upgraded or maintained the PCs accordingly. That with no new software upgrades etc, people either went to other newer PC cafes or did the obvious. stayed home with their PC!
