*points to the title* That would sum this day up in a nutshell rather nicely. Seriously. I'm not trying to be overly dramatic here, but if only you all could have heard some of the calls I had today, you would agree wholeheartedely. I had a customer blab and scream and bitch about why his iTunes wouldn't let him burn an audio cd. He had apparently called Tech Support 7 times about this and still couldn't get the damned thing to work. Uh, hello?! You pop the disc into the drive, name the disc when it prompts you to do so, drag and drop your music or playlists onto the icon on the desktop, select " Burn" and voila! Instant cd! But, no. This schmuck complained about how he had a faculty position at MIT, how he was a biphysicist and had studied nuclear this, nuclear that...and yet, he couldn't burn a simple CD. And he blamed iTunes for being absolute trash. And that whomever developed iTunes ought to be fired, blah blah blah. Psh. The instant someone like THAT calls us for support, they have made their entire diatribe about their life's accomplishments null and void. So GET OVER YOURSELF, ASSHOLE. But, thank Gods that standard procedure call that he should have been escalated to Tier 2 ( Product Specialists) 4 calls ago. So, after 45 minutes of cooing and patronizing reassurance, I FINALLY got him escalated and out of my hair. I'd rather have a root canal than go through THAT again...
And another thing, what is it with some guys just pushing their numbers on girls they know are taken and yet still insist on pestering the hell out of them to get them to call them anyways? A co-worker of mine has been bugging me on how I haven't ever called him yet. Well, dude? NEWS FLASH! I consider you to be an acquaintance. Let me get to know you better in person before I call your phone outside of work hours. I never asked for your number, don't give it out! Plus, the schedule is such that I barely have time for much else anymore! And what time I have I spend talking and being with the friends I actually know and give a damn about. I barely know you, don't fuckin' push me! Sheesh...Seriously. Learn to slow the fuck down! If you're looking for an easy piece of ass that will actually sleep with you and betray her relationship of two plus years with a man she truly cares about, keep looking because that person is not me. Oi. Maybe a bat to the head will get the point across? *polishes halo with her sleeve* Heh, anywho...it's getting a bit late. Now, how to get my point across without burning too many bridges in the process.
Wes, if you're reading this, thanks so much sweetie for your help! Id've quit being a phone agent by now if it weren't for you...
