  • Back in the saddle again...

    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.
    I did not sell my soul to Satan. He does have a long term lease with the option to buy.

    I'd say something to the likeness of, "Well, if you're a lawyer, then of all people you should be educated enough to understand when I told you that we have no control over other companies' inventory."

    Or, "Okay, based on what you're telling me you sound like you're threatening to sue me. If that's the case I have no further comment until I speak to an attorney. Have a nice day." (click!)

    Or "Here's the # to our legal department. (Give #) Have a nice day." (click!)

      Sorry sir, our CEO only deals with people who claim to be judges, not people who claim to be lawyers.

      Oh! I was thinking of becoming a laywer. Which firm do you work for?

            There used to be a restaurant in Spokane WA with this name.

            Good food, too.

                  Wow! That enraged me for about 30 seconds. I mean, really...who cares what your profession is...your an asshat either way.

                  AND...She goes from wanting a manager to the CEO?

                    Yep, So I would give her directions to the nearest Buger King and say,

                    "Well, this isn't Burger King, But if you want a fresh flame broiled hamburger, I'm sure you can get a used one for cheaper in the dumpster behind the Resturant."

                        This is a direct cause of having a toll free number available to anyone in the country. There should be a policy that states if the caller is on crack we are free to say whatever we like and hang up.
