Well, after a break playing manager, not allowing me to post anything from that time, I am once again placed on the floor taking calls from the wonderful people who make a miserable life possible.
This is a goodie from Tuesday...
SC: a WTF person.
D: your humble bastard of technology
*MBT*: They're back!!!!!
D: Thank you for calling PDA.COM, my name is Deceptitech, how may I help you.
SC: Yes, i wanted to order your PDA from Amazon.com, and wanted to know what the newest version is.
(looks up the software version on my PDA, since I own one new)
D: It's version X. Would you like to buy one from us?
SC: No, I want to buy it from amazon.com. Do they have that version?
D: I don't know.
*MBT*: What the...
SC: Why not? They are YOUR PDAs. I want the newest version.
D: Then you should order it from us. We have the newest version and can get it to you--
SC: No. I want it from Amazon, because I can get a used one for half of what you have them for. I want the newest version of it, and I want you to guarantee it for me.
*MBT*: You are telling me that you are unwilling to pay for a new product, but want it your way? What the hell do you think this is, burger king?
D: Ma'am, I cannot guarantee what version they have there, as it could be on the shelf 2 day, or 18 months. The ONLY way I can guarantee youhave the newest version is if you order it from us directly.
SC: No. I want it for this price. You have it for much more, and I want the new version for the low price.
*MBT*: Want in one hand, and sh!t in the other.
D: Ma'am, I don't work for amazon.com. I work for pda.com. We here at pda.com cannot guarantee what comes out of amazon.com. The Only way I can guarantee what version you can get is if you order from me.
SC: I told you I am not buying it from you. I am buying it from amazon.com. I am going to file a complaint about you.
*MBT*: What the hell? Are you on fucking crack? Do you realize how STUPID you sound?
D: Ma'am, I cannot control what other places have. I know that we have that version here, and that we can guarantee it.
SC: Well, I want to talk to your manager.
*MBT*: not at 11:30 at night sweetheart
D: I'll have one call you tomorrow. They will want to address this situation with you, and help you with this issue.
*MBT*: Bullshit. You're batshit crazy if you think we're going to either A, sell you a new device for a used one's price or B, guarantee what amazon has for sale.
SC: Well, I am a lawyer, and I expect a call tomorrow from your CEO.
*MBT*: And on that day, Satan will be skating to work.
D: You have a good day and thank you for calling PDA.com.
I did have a manager call, and when i arrived for my shift he asked me if I was crazy, or was she batshit nuts. I told him that Yes, she is bonkers. She ended up screaming the same at him, telling him that we need to guarantee what version comes out of all places, and we have to put that information on our website.
I still say she was on something, and I wanted some of it.
Ah, I miss these days.
