I work at a call center, one of many run by the large international florist I work for and at least twice a day I end up with some idiot SC that has placed an order with a competitor, has a complaint but is too much of a moron to actually call the company he has the beef with.. sometimes my day goes something like this..
Me: "Thank you for calling blah-blah-blah. My name is blah. How may I help you?"
Rude Idiot: "Order number STD23409777 Yeah, you can tell me where the hell my fucking flowers are. Do you idiots have any idea what you did to my life? My life is ruined and over for ever and ever now. I'm a big shot producer at STupid Monopoly Film Company and you're screwing with the wrong person... I want answers right now. You didn't deliver one month anniversary flowers to my lover yesterday and she had a nervous breakdown and is now in the locked psych ward at Cedars Sinai because of you morons. You ruined our anniversary forever so I want those flowers delivered within the hour to her hospital room or else. I'm a very important person and I'll ruin your life forever.........." and so on for about another ten minutes, speaking so rapidly and hysterically I cannot get a word in edgewise.
Finally blessed silence.
Me: "Sir, that order number is for our competitor, Florist STD. You've called the wrong number."
Rude Idiot: "Oh." click..
Me: laughing loudly.
