I know I've been gone for a while, but I have returned to fulfill all of your internet blogging needs!
Since 2007, I have worked in customer service. In that time period I have been called a racist, an asshole, I've been told to "go fuck myself", I watched a child cry while his older sister said "the mean man doesn't want to give you a prize", I was held responsible for the well-being of a diabetic child when I refused to give him change of a dollar as per my jobs policy, my life has been threatened, people have wanted to take me to court, a lawyer threatened to sue me and I've cleaned up human shit... twice.
Even through all these horrible experiences, I've maintained a friendly, compassionate demeanor. Ok so maybe I'm a cynical asshole but that's irrelevant. My point for sharing all of these experiences is that people need to chill out when dealing with customer service reps. I sit at my computer now and fight for all the college aged young people that are working customer service jobs and deal with shit every day from some fucking prick that thinks he's God. Many days passed when I envisioned myself grabbing customers by the back of the head and straight up stabbing them in the throat. While I'm stabbing them, I would take out their phone and take a picture and text it to everyone in their contact list. This is how you learn.
Now I'm 100% behind treating people like shit or being an asshole. If you want to be an asshole on the street, go ahead. Take that chance. Hope you don't get murdered. But, if you're giving a hard time to someone who is not able to pen stab you out of fear of losing their job, you are what's wrong with this world. If I killed everyone that ever pissed me off at work, I would be the most notorious serial killer of all time.
I am not the only person that has suffered this torment. It happens every day and some people don't even know it's happening! One day, the customer service reps aren't going to take it anymore. One day, they won't care if they lose their job. One day, there will be an uprising. One day, all those young people are going to stand up and fight back, and when they do, it'll make
And that is why guns should be legal.
