  • Now I'm from Mexico

    SC: ( has what I am pretty sure was a French accent. His name was Asher so I don't know from whence that came but I'm about 95% sure) How much drop I owe?
    Me: A total of $58.85. $40.00 is now past due and is preventing delivery.
    SC: Okay, I'm gonna send you a check but I need a delivery today.
    Me: Unfortunately to restore delivery we would need for your check to clear, a maximum of 7 business days after it posts. You can make a check payment over the phone to speed up the process.
    SC: I will give it to him, tell him to come today.
    Me: We can pick up the payment, certainly but we cannot deliver until the payment clears.
    SC: I am out of water, I need it today.
    Me: You can pay by credit or debit card and get delivery by Monday or you can give the representative cash on delivery and receive it today.
    SC: What? Cash? I guess you are one of those Mexicans who doesn't get that this is America. We don’t use cash. This is a business. We use checks only. I guess you are trying to say I don’t pay taxes like you Mexicans.
    Me: ......um...I am sorry if I offended you sir, I was just offering you an option-
    SC: Sure, Maria. Whatever.
    Me: sir, my name is Vanessa ( I am breaking anonymity just to show how non hispanic my name is).
    SC: all Mexicans are named Maria or Juan. Can you bring me a taco with my water? Laughs hysterically
    Me: and I will be disconnecting this call.

    I am not sure why he thought I was Mexican or what being Mexican could have to do with him not paying his bill on time. To be honest I have a voice like Brett Butler at age 12 so I am not sure how he got Mexican but I should have said well, if being Mexican means you pay cash instead of holding off on payments for months and potentially bouncing checks then I am proud to be called one.

    He didn't have a reason to think you were Mexican. He's just a bigot, and the object of his bigotry is Mexicans. When anything doesn't go his way he blames it on The hated group instead of wherever his ire should be directed. It's pretty normal behavior for a bigot - they never want to take any responsibility.

      Yup. Maria or Juan. It gets a little confusing at times, but it seems to work for them.

      *end sarcasm*

      Okay. I don't get how people think stooping to this level will help their cause. LOL

          Any way you could put a note on his account as to how you were treated? If so, would it do anything other than get read by people? Just curious, cause this guy needs to learn that there ARE consequences to his stupid, racist, asshole-ish actions!

            I did, I wrote what he said word for word, why I disconnected and I told my supervisor immediately.

              actually, it would be for guys Maria Jose Jesus de Guadalupe. Really, get creative here with the name calling , frency.

              Don't teach me a lesson; all I learn is that you are an asshole.

                Maria Jose Jesus de Guadalupe..



                I can vouch for this being not too far off. My mom is from Venezuela and, yes, everyone on her side of the family *does* have two first names. Even my sister's middle name is technically part of her first name. Because when you have several 'Maria's and 'Jose's in the family, it's needed. That or you give everyone nicknames (which we do also. :3)

                      uh, no, dickface; most of america has upgraded to online payments, direct payments and credit/debit cards. only troglodytes like you think that checks are a modern method of payments. btw, cash is STILL a valid payment, and in most cases, preferred over a check.

                      wow, racist and stupid; hope he likes tap water.

                      Sorry, but while I can do many things, extracting heads from anuses isn't one of them. (so sayeth the irv)

                          I doubt his nasty comments had anything to do with you "sounding" like you were from Mexico. The racist jerks I've come across will find any reason to lay blame on the race/nationality/gender/orientation/etc of their choosing. He was just trying to get a reaction.

                          Also, a voice like Brett Butler? Too bad you can't get snarky right back at these folks, 'cause with Brett's voice it would be awesome.

                            Because clearly anyone who won't allow people to receive services or products without paying their bill or past due must be un-American.
