For those that dont know. I run a cellular service center in eastern PA. We service mostly Nextel, but can work on other models too. Anyway, when a customer comes in for service, he/she has to fill out a form, detailing the problem with the unit, and his/her information to aid in my looking up their account. Today, a customer filled it out like this Contact Number: Smae And what the fuck is in that phone number? Is that a Caligraphic F? A dram? (50 gill to the person that knows what a dram is without looking it up on the net). ...... think about that for a second. Authorized Contact: Simc. His name was Michael. Not even CLOSE to Simc! Here's the kicker. He was in a suit and tie!!. Looked like the CEO of a fortune 500 company. I understand noone is perfect, And trust me, I'm NOONE to point fingers about handwriting. but wtf? This is in addition to the "Detailed Explanation Of Problem" I get like "Phone Broke". "Dropped In Toilet". "Dont Worked" .... If nothing else my job entertains me. Thought it may entertain some of you ^^ _Code

Looks like someone with Parkinson's wrote it...my grandmother used to write like that Dram is both a currency and a weight, I know that much. Plus a type of memory @_@ ...your job sounds just as fun as mine. However, have you gotten to ruin Christmas this year?? I have =D

I didn't personally do anything...Verizon has a horrible habit of selling DSL when they can't provide it, and it's up to me to tell the customer "oh, by the way, even though sales promised you DSL on this date, we can't provide it for another month. And that's IF the central office decides to become unsuspended. If not, it might be another month or so. And no one can do ANYTHING." -_-
Anyone get why my job stresses me out yet? ^_~

*sings* My wife, my job, My kids, and my car My feet on my table And a Cuban cigar *gets all metal* But sometimes that just ain't enough To keep a man like me interested! Oh no, no way, No, I gotta go out and have fun At someone else's expense! Oh yeah, hell yeah! Dammit, you guys, now I have that song stuck in my head. I know where you guys are coming from. I work at an EB in Delaware, Ohio -- and lemme tell ya, these people aren't exactly the sharpest knives in the drawer. I'll leave the events of this pre-Christmas week up to you all to imagine.

I totally agree. All service jobs suck... except for the ones that don't. And NO ONE knows what those jobs are - because let's face it - if you knew what it was, wouldn't you be in direct competition for it? Yeah.
People are stupid. I could go on for hours about some of the incredibly stupid stuff people do in my job, but I'd never shut up... thank GOD Friday is my last day and I'm coming back to the states soon!
