Another Dumb/Angry Customer
So here I am, working by myself assisting a nice lady with her upgrade. An older gentleman walks into my store with a piece of paper in his hand, peering at the accessories, obviously not sure of himself. So I ask him if he has just a quick question, as I may be awhile with my current customer. Heres the convo:
C - Do you have a battery model number XXX?
M - I don't really know the model numbers of the batteries off-hand, but what kind of cell phone is it?
C - (getting flustered) How the hell should I know? Don't you people just have batteries here?
M - Well, we don't normally stock batteries, but how long have you had the cell phone?
C - I dunno, about 18months
M - Well, let me look up your account you might be eligble ...

She said yes I have had my credit ran with nextel" I was like ok well what were your results! she replied $100.00 deposit per line required. I was like well that will be what your credit deposit will be here. her response was "well can you run it again maybe it might have changed!" I explained "not likely sence credit remains on file for 5 years. her response was well can we at least try. I was finally like "ok if you want me too then I will but it will not imp...

I thikn it should be a requirement that everyone has to work a year in retail and/or restaurants. I bet you people would be a lot nicer to each other.
...

you know what dont judge people for what they do obviously it is funny to respond to the first one by laughinging but choose to scould me about my endevors. do me a favor and keep your opinion in regaurds to anything i say to yourself. unless your a Dumb angry customer.

🤨 I wasn't "bashing" you, I was agreeing with you. Learn to read jerk.
...
OH 😲 Im so sorry I took it as you were bashing me... seriously my bad... I guess Im not used to the lingo used in the forums. it sounded to me like you were bashing me like saying I know everything about annoying dumb angry customers and stuff... but my bad.. if that was your intention I apologize! didnt mean to offend ya! I take back my previous post! 🤠🤠🤠🤠ðŸ¤
...
Yes I was agreeing with you especially since I said originally that everyone should work in retail and/or restaurant business. Then you listed your experience in both which to me means then you know exactly what I meant. Now that you know, it's all good
...

"I need a good home phone with big numbers"
well lady, apparently you're pretty blind, because as you can see, we only deal with cellular phones.
Ugh... and I'm in the same shopping center as a radio shack...so I get dumbasses coming in here thinking they're walking into radio shack... as if the big blue globe doesnt give it away...

And thats why I am glad i work for a company with no landline affiliations!!!!
...
Welcome to the life of almost every Verizon Wireless agent location. They want to pay their landline bills here, get "wireless internet for $14.95" set up (They mean DSL..for some reason they think plugging your computer into a modem that is in turn plugged into the wall makes it WIREless), start and stop their landline service, and my favorite is, that when you tell them you're not affiliated..they want to use your one and only phone line to call the team because they're too stupid to call the 800# then press 0 for a representative. UGH!
okay..better now
okay..better now
...
Thats funny. I get someone atleast once a week that comes in looking for something for there home phone. I send them to walmart
...
I have to sell homephone, internet, wireless internet, cable and then finally wireless. 😕
