(prescript: I know what I did was kinda illegal but I dont really care, what remained of my soul has been killed this past year working in the cellphone industry)

okay, so this one really anoying arsehat came in about a month past, raised hell about a broken phone, I told her (why are these always female...) "okay, I'll make the execption and 50.00 exchange your phone." I know she heard because she said "fine" and pulled out her CC. I do the fru, finish the activation, and say. "okay, all that's left is the 50.00" and she loses it. "WHAT!?

In all the anger and confusion(?) ...

lol, i wouldve done the same thing, i hate how everything is settled and explained, then when it comes down to the end of the transaction, and money needs to be exchanged, they suddenly catch forgetfulness, and rant and rave about money.

I love it when they threatin to cancel there service, i put out the phone, dial CS, and hand it to them, they look at my crazed and walk away.

I love when they threaten to cancel over something stupid like charging them a whopping $15 for a car charger.

Furthermore, if you still want a cell phone you'll have to go to a different company, which will require buying a new phone and possibly paying a desposit, and on top of it, your monthly bill will be $10-$20 higher at least... If you REALLY want to do that, you CAN, but I still can't lower the price of the charger anymore. I'm already giving you a discount, and threatening to cancel won't allow my computer to make the price lower because my computer doesn't care if you cancel. It...

I would have laughed if the 4th time you ran her credit it came back with a $500 deposit or something. Running the credit hurts their credit rateing so that would have been amusing if running her credit 4 times lowed it enough for a higher deposit.
