Sorry I used to work in sales and even though I had SC's I didn't let them get to me to much. But a few years ago I started working in Returns. I was not prepared for it. I started in returns as the supervisor. The people below me were already deadened to the excuses and threats of SCs. I was not. It doesn't take long to here every excuse. Even when I tried to find a reason to help someone they could be sucky. I had one customer that wanted to return something way past the return date. I informed him that I couldn't because of the policy of 30 days. He then told me he was sent to Iraq. I said well then sir I will return it because you had a more important commitment. He said that shouldn't matter. So all I could then tell him was sorry then I can't return it. Seriously, I was able to find a good reason to break the rules and he refused it. I was dumbfounded. I am always polite throughout any interaction so I wan't snotty about making the excpection. Honestly I was glad to have a reason to break the rules. But he shut me down. Oh well. There will be more stories to come.

I... don't get it. The guy pulled the army service card, you bought it, then the SC says "no, that doesn't matter." WTF?? Talk about self-defeating.
