  • Why Don't You Just Talk to Me Yourself?!

    Had a super nice (sarcasm) conversation with a company today. They were arguing with us about coverage for...let's call it Llamas.

    Paying for Llamas depends. It's a really grey area and has been the subject of a lot of lawsuits. Being in my position and deciding on whether or not to pay for Llamas is tough. It's even tougher when I'm trying to talk to someone who does not understand property construction.

    I get a call from this super nice sounding lady. I'm trying to explain to her why the original adjuster did not include Llamas. So, she tells me that she's going to need to talk to the owner -cue scary music-

    WS: Me
    MM: The poor lady that had to play middleman in a conversation that went a wee bit over her head.
    AH: Mr. I can't deign myself to talk to plebians

    (Mind you, this man is loud enough that I can hear everything he says)
    MM: -tries to explain to AH what I told her-
    AH: Well, there are many other animals involved, so they need to pay for Llamas too!
    MM: -repeats this to me-
    WS: We do not pay for Llamas based on how many other animals are involved.
    MM: -repeats this to AH-
    AH: Oh, but they DO pay based how many animals are involved. Ask her to give Llamas on everything, but replacing the Penguins.
    MM: Can you give Llamas on everything except for Penguins?
    WS: No, this does not warrant Llamas based on X,Y,Z, and some vague wording.
    MM: -repeats this to AH-


    This conversation goes on for awhile discussing Llamas. I still don't budge. Seriously though?! You're the owner of the company. Just freaking talk to me instead of using your secretary who sounds more and more terrified every time you talk to her. All throughout this annoying conversation, he was shouting. I wonder how well he treats all of his employees.

    Maybe he has an "image" to maintain and doesn't want to talk to the "public".

      i'm thinking he might be like one of my former supervisors Cheese On Bread.

      He once wanted me to disprove the bill we owed to "Lab P" for work done. Except I only had a list of gear we sent them, and a list of how many hours each took... no idea on what they charged per hour. And they were already closed for the day. He kept trying to pass the buck to me saying, "do your homework".

      I'm just wondering if AH is a bit like COB... where he doesn't know what the fuck the system is about, and he's trying to get the underling to do the legwork for him... even though he's the one who's suppose to decide.
