Beat this idiot customer story...

Researcher

Yesterday I had a call from a guy in California. He wanted to change his MDN. No problem. I happen to ask why. The reason was that his number had 44 in it and acording to him in some old Chinese language 2 4's together means some tragic death! Every number I got had 44 as part of the the exchange. He freaked and went off the cliff. He wanted my manager who would not change it again after my three trys. Not sure what happened to him.

Good grief only in California!

This one Indian guy and he wants us to replace his phone because it was black. I told him we didnt have any red ones avilible any more and black was the only thing we had. And he said he didnt want a black phone cause it's a womans color and it was a disgrace to have a womans colored phone. And he said he never had a black phone. End of story I just told him well you do now 🤣

Lucky numbers were a big thing to TMO's asian customer base. And the non-asian as well. Vanity numbers were a big deal there all around. I wish more carriers would figure that out.

I want 666-6666, after all.

I agree it's a number it's not going to kill you. I think it's funny when some ones change is 6.66 and they want to buy something else people are so stupid.

In Ohio we have a community that their exchange is 666. Every one has it. I worked at a gas station years ago, on a sunday afternoon and a well dressed black lady came in and with what she bought it came to $6.66. She started yelling "Oh Jesus. Oh Jesus" Then she said sell me something! Anything!! She startled all in the store including me. The first thing I grabbed to sell her was a pack of condoms! She took it, looked at it and dropped everything ran out of the store got in her car and left.

It was at least 4 minutes untill we stopped laughing 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣

"Press while ringing" I pulled his fon up and asked him what are the letters on the fon. To which he said PWR, Press While Ringing" 😳 .

I used to refer to QA as the Grim Reapers. They come lurking around the Branches with all they're 0 evals in hand,and we all just cringed and made like an Qstrich w/our heads in the sand 👀 , (Mabybe she/he cant see me), If you ever saw the movie "Ghost", at the end when the bad guy gets capped, and the "Dark Spirits" come for him. Thats QA 👀 👀 👀

No, actually Chinese people have immigrated to pretty much every state in the Union.

But, nice to know that you have such a positive view of Chinese culture.

Oh, wait, no....
