        Welcome to CS. As a former tech support rep myself, I feel your pain. I hope your job search is going well.

        "You can crap on Red-Checkmark Telco all you want. Do not crap on ME. Crap on me again and I will terminate this call."

        And I woulda been completely within my rights to say such. I would've given one more warning but after that, next one would've been *click*. Fortunately, I rarely had to do that. In more than two years there I terminated maybe two calls. I did hand one who had accused me of racism off to a sup though.

            you know, stories like this make me so happy that I didn't end up getting a job at convergys... though the commute there would be a lot better than to where I work now (or all the places I've applied oddly enough).

              Man, that's why I don't miss 'vergys. one of the worst jobs I've ever had. Got rid of that job and moved to Utah, and end up taking a job next to them (we've since moved), but still. Can't escape that miserable company.

              Me: Gentoo.
              Coworker: Ahh. A Masochist. I thought so.

                I never even worked for them and I still avoid the building... I will go out of my way to avoid 45th south between 5th west and Redwood just to avoid seeing them.

                  I actually meant the one in Orem. Host of Blue used to be there in Canyon Park next to verio and 'vergys...we've since moved the call center to Provo.

                    Oh, well I try to avoid Orvo all together though

                    OK, so I don't avoid it, but I have no reason to go there... I live in Murray, work by the airport, shop in South Salt Lake, go to school in Taylorsville, and have very little reason to go further south than any of those (besides, I know that my kind isn't exactly welcomed south of the point of the mountain).

                      Your kind? I'm a non mormon Texan living deep in mormon land. If it weren't for my Californian wife I'd lose my mind. Seems to be more "our kind" :-P

                        I'm a gay ex-mormon with a wiccan boyfriend... i'm pretty sure we'd be shot on sight in Utah county

                        eta- and we're 'fat' which apparently in City Center is nearly as bad of a sin as being gay

                          Yeah, probably for the best that you don't venture down here.

                          As a side note, I'm good at getting that "you heathen!" look. :-D
