Please tell me that some of that actually makes sense to you. Orders? Invoices? Customer #'s? Don't have to explain it to me. Just tell me you understand it.

@momurda Seriously, I helped a kid in Texas via TeamViewer to be able to mount a drive inside of ESXi.
He had no clue, but had hundreds of VM's he was "in charge of".
I could've screwed him over royally if I wasn't such a nice guy.
