Customer Service In OTHER COUNTRIES

[Parks]

Please excuse my racist rant.

PEOPLE FROM OTHER COUNTRIES NEED TO LEARN ENGLISH BEFORE THEY ARE HIRED TO BE CUSTOMER SUPPORT REPRESENTATIVES!

I just spent 53 minutes trying to get my wireless router working in my house...and didn't get anywhere. I spent 30 minutes on hold, and the other 23 on the line with a man who had a HORRIBLE phone--it was staticky (or he was blowing into the phone) and he was very hard to understand. It took us 23 minutes for me to give him my name, e-mail address, 2 numbers from the wireless router and for me to give him the ok to call me "PARKS". I lost it after he told me to go into RUN and type something in, which I asked him to repeat about 20 times and could NOT understand him. I asked him to transfer me to somebody else--and he did about 5 minutes later...er he put me on hold, and at that point, I gave up. I hung up.

Easily one of the most frustrating experiences in my life.

Anyone else had this happen?

I just ate a piece of pizza to relieve my stress from that phone call.

and it was so worth it.

that was the first REALLY unhealthy thing I've eaten since the new year. I want more.

FRIGGIN CUSTOMER SERVICE PEOPLE ARE GOING TO MAKE ME GO BACK TO BEING UNHEALTHY!

Don't let Diana see this thread, Parks.

Parks is so hot.

You never added me on Myspace.
And I've had the same problem with customer service, except it had to do with Vonage.

[Fabrizio2]

Posted: 1/9/07 at 11:00pm

You told me your myspace was still under construction.

Parks if you have a girlfriend, I am sadly mistaken because I thought you were gay.

It's comforting that this thread has ascended into underage boys flirting with each other.

Like an old photograph of the Kennedy boys playing Touch Football in Hyannisport...

Carry on, boys, carry on. Try not to get grass stains on your pants before supper.

And I didn't find anything racist with Parks' original post.

[Parks]

Posted: 1/9/07 at 11:03pm

yes, I have a girlfriend. Her name is Diana. She is amazing...

I can still be gay. I mean, we're married too...

[StageManager2]

Posted: 1/9/07 at 11:03pm

I don't think it's grass, PalJoey.

[Fabrizio2]

Posted: 1/9/07 at 11:04pm

No thank you Parks.

SORRY FICTION WRITER...is our date still on?

[Fiction Writer]

Posted: 1/9/07 at 11:05pm

Uh, you can't just dump me one minute and then crawl back the next. NO MA'AM!

(But yeah.. our date's still on.)
