:faint:I had a horrible customer at work today and just had to get it off my chest. It began with him requesting a supervisor: me. Next began me trying to explain his account and why what he was asking was impossible and while asking him questions to find out how I COULD help him he begins to tell me I am not a supervisor..blah blah blah :tired You're kidding me right? Like I have nothing better to do than "pretend" I am a supervisor.

Me: (politically correct response) Sir, please let's not be disrepectful and keep this professional. I would really like to assist you with your account today.

Sir: blah blah %^@#%*^$% blah blah %$@^(@*$% blah blah blah :embarassed:

Me: Sir, if you continue with that language I will not be able to assist you today.

Sir: blah blah blah I am YOUR boss you F'ING B****! :eek:

Me: *click*

Said sir then calls back in and speaks to someone and tells them that he knows that "my name" is there and he wants her to tell me I am a STUPID B****.

Her(politically correct response): Sir, I cannot do that. It is not appropriate.

Sir: Put her on the phone I will tell her myself.

Ugh! Who pissed in his cheerios this morning?

I am so glad I don't work in customer service. I feel so sorry for you guys, I really do. There are some people in this world that just need to be slapped.

Already looking for a new job. There is only so much pressure you can put on a twig until it snaps.

awww, Jenna. so sorry you had "one of those days"

'its the holiday season'... not an excuse, but people tend to get mental right about now.

Thanks LJM and Laurend. Guess everyone has "those days". That'a what is great about this site. Plenty of support out there no matter the reason. :clap2:

Good for you! I just can't believe there are people out there that act like that guy. It's completely out of the question for me, I guess. I was raised to treat everyone with respect, and to fake it if I didn't respect them.

I know how you feel. I used to work at a bank and people freak out if you can't do every little thing they want. I was so surprised that people could be so arrogant and rude. That is why I will never work at a bank again. Hope you find a new job soon.

Honestly, I think the worst I can complain about is an incident when I was interning at a wildlife refuge on Cape Cod and a guy came in the visitors' center to bitch at me about how the trees were growing too tall and ruining his view. It was all I could do to tell him, "This is a wildlife refuge, not a people refuge. It's nice that we get visitors, but guess what? The wildlife come first. I don't give a damn if those trees are ruining the view, they're considered to be wildlife habitat, and we aren't going to cut them down just so poor little you can have a better ocean view from the boardwalk." Instead I just smiled and nodded throughout his spiel and took a message to pass on to the refuge manager. When you want to smack some sense into a customer, just smile and nod, smile and nod.

Hope you have a much nicer day tomorrow. Donna:hug::hug:

Thanks. Definately better. Applied for a few jobs. I will wait and see what happens. No biggie! Nothing a nice alcoholic drink couldn't fix. LOL!

Hilarious story Laurend. Makes you want to tell him, "Sure sir. I would be happy to do that. Would you also like me to permanently stop the rain and cease all annoying bird chatter since I am obviously Mary freakin' Poppins?"

You got that right. :faint:
