  • Do you need a tissue!!??

    This guy called in today, and he obviously had a cold or allergies or something... every time he talked, he would go "SNNNIIIFFF", and it was so gross!! Every other word he said, I got an earful of snot. Gawd!! I was about to tell him to put the phone down and get a fucking tissue!!
    Then there are the people who burp and chew their food in your ear. Another time when a call came in, I heard someone puking on the other end! At least he hung up on me before I could answer him. Some people just boggle my mind.

    You know, it's bad enough hearing my fiance do things like that when we're both at home.

    I HATE hearing that stuff over the phone.

      That guy sounds gross-I really hate people who do that. But what kind of job do you have where you would hear people sniffing, burping, chewing and barfing in your ear?

            You'd absolutely hate me right now I have a cold and I can't go 5 minutes without sniffling (or blowing my nose). Having a cold on top of horrible allergies is not fun at all

              Throw your icky tissue away!

              So I am at work the other day (not the day from hell, but an equally annoying day) when this man comes up to the register, pulls a tissue out of his pocket, blows his nose loudly, then drops it on the shelf where the receipt printer is. I politely ask him to throw his tissue away as I refuse to do it. The man gives me the standard "How dare you" face, but eventually obliges. Jesus people...what makes you think I want to handle and throw away your snot rag!

                Any where they can get on a phone and call us!

                I remember the one when I was at Victoria's Secret Catalogue that flushed the toilet in the middle of the call!

                  Pay? There is no pay- actually, you have to pay to be part of the team.
                  Although, ideally, you ARE the boss and you get to tell off SC's and occasionally make them stand in a corner. You can also take their candy away until they learn to behave.
                  Don't know of too many other jobs with those perks...

                    Unfortunately I don't think you're biologically equipped for motherhood there Raps. If you are well... we really don't want to know

                      Wasn't there a thread a while back that had a whole discussion about things like that, along with flushing toilets and hot tubbing, plus more?

                          Well, I did try my hand (chest?) at wet nursing, but I gave the baby a fit of sneezing.

                          *sigh*

                              It's pro bono, the managers are children and it's a sexist job, you have to be female.
