  • 3 Emails that have confuddled me

    Email: “I just wanted you to know that I consider writing to you a waste of my time and yours.”

    **************************

    Email: “The Weather Channel just notified me that you do not have the network I want. Is that the reputation your company wants, one that comes along and messes everything up? Enough corporate greed.”

    **************************

    Email: “Go straight to hell, do not pass go. Do not collect $200. You are so disorganized that you need to go on out of business. You make it impossible to contact you. Then when you get to a contact, it is the wrong one. What a bunch of assholes.”

    HUH?

    Most people couldn't follow a simple, logical line of thought if their lives depended on it. Those emails are just pathetic.

        "However, not so much a waste that I won't take a moment to shamelessly murder several thousand of your brain cells with the sheer stupidity of my missive. Also, I think I should get something for free."

        "If I do not receive my wholly unattainable request at your earliest possibile inconvenience, I shall tell my friends (one blow-up, one imaginary) about your terrible corporate values and encourage them never to patronize your place of business. Also, I think I should get something for free."

        "Despite my inability to realize that I am, in fact, contacting you with this very e-mail, I will continue to make no sense and berate you for no reason. Also, I think I should get something for free."

        PJ, you deserve a medal for putting up with all of this!! Or at least a nice frosty beverage!! I hope you have a long weekend coming up...you deserve it!!

          Now that's just not fair! I mean, what's the fun of taking a nice trip to Hell, if you can't have a little spending money?

            At least you know who they're from. Where I work, I'd be asking myself, "Are they from customers or management?"

                While it's nice to know that the customer knows that reading this email is, in fact, a waste of your time, the fact that he (she?) even wrote and sent this is mind boggling...

                  Sometimes you guys are just really hard on your customers. Those emails aren't that bad compared to others. The third is actually kind of funny.

                    Yes, the third one WAS slightly amusing...until the person decided to start defaming people.

                      Oh, I don't know. Those emails show a decided lack of knowledge of intelligence, as well as a complete disdain for proper procedures and demanding the impossible.

                      Sound sucky to me.

                        1. I guess your time is worth more than his, as he doesn't mind wasting his time to try and waste yours.

                        2. I gotta wonder exactly what network this guy wanted, and why he was calling the Weather Channel to find out if you had it? Also, if you did carry every channel known to mankind, that would really drive prices up, so really, you're saving people money!

                        3. He was attempting to be clever at first, but then showed his ignorance! Do you have any clue how difficult it is to organize a company so that calls from outside are consistently routed to the wrong person? That takes a lot of training, so that people don't mess up between inside and outside calls! And then I guess he looked out his window and saw a bunch of teenagers mooning his house. (wonder why? )

                          Geez, we just can't win. Canadagirl wants us to go easy on customers, Kayem wants them all decried as evil.

                          I vote for Can't Win, Don't Try, and carry on business as usual.

                            they may not have a firm grasp on intelligence, but this confirms their chokehold on stupidity!
                            look! it's ghengis khan!
                            Sorry, but while I can do many things, extracting heads from anuses isn't one of them. (so sayeth the irv)

                              1) Yes, thoughtful how he didn't mind wasting my time but was mad that I was wasting his. *sigh*

                              2) He wanted the NFL Network. Don't ask me how the Weather Channel told him something about it.

                              3) We do our best to get our customers to the wrong department each & every time they call. It takes a lot of energy, btw.
