  • Not sucky, so much as weird

    Setup a divert for a Christchurch customer (believe it or not, I have other jobs I do besides this) and he yanks the phone off the lady who answered and tells me NOT to divert the fax number. There's no mention of the fax number. I don't even know what his fax number is, and I tell him this. So he tells me it. Then, smugly, But Don't Divert It!
    ... Tells me his whole life story about things that vaguely relate to his fax, or .. things in general, then suddenly trots out this gem:

    "When I get a job, I'm going to be a power company or phone company exec, so I can sit around & do nothing! ..... OK bye!" o.O
    yeahhhhh this is not a young guy, and I think he's the manager or owner of the company, so I guess he might've been trying to be funny, but....... what???

    Could you explain what a divert is please? 'Cause I don't understand what happened
    There's no such thing as a stupid question... just stupid people.

      Oooh, sorry - most of the city of Christchurch had/has no phone lines so since the 'quake I've been diverting calls to mobiles, other cities, other places. Just a little way of helping. Most ppl are extrimely grateful, some sucky, and a few just plain weird...

        basically the phone numbers are being forwarded somewhere else like to cell phones and whatnot.

            Hahahahaha hes so funny.
            At my old job we provided IT support for the company that owned/maintained the power grid (i.e. from outside the generator to your wall).

            Their CEO worked, trust me on that.


            Rose - You should have turned around and asked if he wanted a new EXTRA fax line so he could not divert it
