[B][COLOR="Blue"]i have been working at a homeshopping network for three years now...all in all...i love my job. the people are great, the benefits rock, the pay is alright...but you will be amazed at how many stupid people are out there...ok, maybe you wont be. but, im here to let everyone know, that there are a few guidelines that should be accounted for if you decide to order off of tv....ready set go!
please have your credit card ready. we do not enjoy sitting there and listening to you wheeze on the phone while you run out to your car or fumble through papers to find it. its retarded.
do not interrupt us while we do our greeting. im sure what you have to say is important, but would it kill you to wait half of a second? its part of our job, and trust me, we do not want to thank you for calling anyways.
please do not go into detail about your personal life. i dont care if you have a broken foot or if your husband ran off with your mother or if you have a yeast infection. im there to take orders, not give you advice. keep it short and sweet, and we will be sweet right back to you.
if we say that an item is sold out...dont question us. just because they are still showing it on the tv doesnt mean crap. take into consideration that although it is live, you are still about 15 seconds behind of what is really going on. and if an item does sell out...dont whine to us about it. we dont care. you are tying up our line...go cry into your pillow about it.
if you have ordered with us before, you do not need to spell out every little detail. we ask you to VERIFY your name and address. VERIFY means we already have it on file, we just want to make sure it is you. plus, there is no need to spell JOHN SMITH...i think i got that under control
also when it comes to verifying info...yes you do have to verify your credit card info as well. its not to piss you off, its not to make you get off the couch, its for security purposes. its to cover our own ass to be completely honest. so do it and dont bitch about it. you know you have to, so just fucking do it...
when you do order, listen to us and not the showhosts. its not cute when we are ignored...although you guys think it is hilarious
turn your tv down when you call in. i know your deaf, but you could hear me better if the tv wasnt sounding like a slipknot concert. retard.
if you saw something last week, and you dont have the item number or any other additional info on it, do not expect us to know what in the hell you are talking about.
if we say to give an item 2 weeks to ship...dont call in the next day wondering why it hasnt arrived. its called active listening...work on it.
also, dont get mad if you want to cancel something you ordered 2 days ago, and it has already been packaged or shipped out. its not our fault you spent your child's diaper money on crap. be a good parent...retard
we have millions of customers. dont expect me to know who you are.
we dont care what competitive shopping networks are selling stuff for. so dont tell us
if you order a 2 carat diamond ring for 20 bucks, and it has flaws in it...thats your fault for being stupid enough to order it. of course its going to be crap, its a 2 carat diamond for 20 bucks! der!
dont order stuff just because its cheap...its cheap for a reason...
DO NOT EAT, BLOW YOUR NOSE, SNIFF, BREATHE HEAVY, OR USE THE BATHROOM ON THE PHONE!!! IT IS DISGUSTING AND WE HATE HEARING IT. ITS RUDE!! ALSO, TAKE THE PHONE OUT OF YOUR MOUTH WHEN YOU CALL IN, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO EAT THE RECEIVER SO THAT WE CAN HEAR YOU!!!! TRUST ME, WE HEAR EVERYTHING!!
ALSO, IF YOUR BABY IS CRYING, TAKE CARE OF IT INSTEAD OF ORDERING FROM US!!! YOU MAY THINK ITS PRECIOUS, BUT TO US, ITS A SCREAMING POOP BOMB IN OUR EAR!!!
please have an i.q. bigger than your bra size before you even attempt to call in. just because you can dial a phone doesnt mean shit. die, please.
kay im done.....for now...
