Actually, English is the official language of the US. It got added onto an environmental protection bill as a last minute addition and got passed along with the bill (in the same manner that pork spending does). Now the government has the right to refuse to make forms in languages other then english. They havent exercised this much, but the option is there now. Learn your culture and research your facts, You're an American Mother F*cker ^_^

I was wondering, where is your picture from? It's a neat style (similar to alot of stuff I read currently), wondering if it's self drawn or from something. Thanks

in the Development forum

Kinda a dumb question here: I've heard a bit about the new LTE network, what will it do differently then current signal? Higher speeds is a given, but I've heard ruors of using it to better penetrate buildings with signal and such, was wondering how that would work.

It's because canadians are still trying to understand the concept of rain, let alone not trying to kill it :twisted: . Cell phones? in 100 years they might have them. saying "cell phone" in canada is like saying "20 megapixel camera on a phone" in the US. Won't happen for ages XD

I love living in Washington state :) I have never ONCE seen a person in my store who talked like that (some that dressed like that, but they don't try to talk like it). The closest we get to un-understandable customers is upriver hicks, but they still ENUNCIATE their words, unlike their southern counterparts. Well, that and a ton of spanish speaking only hispanics XD

We had an Issue like this with our manager in our area. He would come up in the middle of the sale an undercut price down 50-100$ just to prove that he could and jip your commission, yell @ employees (literalyl) for simple things, and all around just being a dick. The employees got sick of it and escalated the situation to the dm. We had a sit down session with him where we all pretty much screamed @ ...

Re: Insurance Besides Asurion
Jun 1, 2009, 7:51 PM
in the Shop Talk forum

We used to have one called ACE. It was a small one time fee, one time use insurance for a new phone that could be picked up in store. It was a pretty decent alternative to Asurion, and ended up being alot cheaper. We recently had to replace it with protect cell because ACE started REQUIRING Sworn proofs of loss, police reports, and HAVING THE CUSTOMER SEND THE BROKEN PHONE TO KENTUCKY for almost every single claim. It got ...

So, everyone above 'Wireless Consultant' in our company has the day off. I'm here @ my store, which is in a costco parking lot... and Costco has all the entrances except 1 blocked off for tarring and repainting the road. Called the DM... and... I'm here all day. Without a way for customers to get to the store. Gotta love Management.

Highlight of my sunday: Customer: "My phone doesn't work" Me, picking it up "Oh, what seems to be the problem?" Customer: "It fell in the toilet" Me, dropping the phone "Nice of you to tell me after i pick it up. Here's asurion's #, get out" Gotta love sundays and hand sanitizer -_-

Online customer... Ugh...

in the Shop Talk forum

So this middle aged woman comes in with a new 5500 and her old phone, wants a phone book transfer. I ask where she got the phone, online (of course -_-). Our store has a 15$ transfer fee policy for outside-of-store-purchase phone book transfers. I tell this to the customer, and I literally get every bad customer response to get there way. 1. "I've been a customer for X amount of years" 2. "This is bad for customer service don't you ...

This is the kind of stuff people who opposed unions and labor laws used to say to workers who were in poor conditions and didn't get paid enough for the crap they had to deal with. With us, sure, we're not getting our arms caught in dangerous macinery for $2 an hour, but some customers make that look amazing in comparison. Besides... Are you a communist? RED MENACE! WITH YOUR GODLESS HEATHEN COMMIE WAYS! RAWR! (lol, satire :twisted: ...

Could be Worse :p

in the Shop Talk forum

Suppose it could be worse. I work for that retailer as well, except my store has over 15 competitors in our small town. Buisiness has pretty much ground to a halt around here lately. The customers we do get we have to fight tooth claw and nail when it comes to pricing. The customer can't walk 50 yards without seeing a competitors price tag (literally, 3 competitors stores within 50 yards: costco, best buy, and a corporate store O_O) ...

Aren't the first customers of the day always the best customers of the day? ^_^ WRONG! :evil: Had one today that walked in right as I opened the door, and before i could say "hel-" "DO YOU HAVE A BELT CLIP FOR THIS!?" (GZONE Boulder) "Let me take a look here Sir... Looks like I dont, but I have a couple of other cases that might work just as well or better for it. Here's a pou-" "I don't ...

Worst Paperwork Mistake EVER
Jan 4, 2009, 12:36 AM
in the Shop Talk forum

So, I work for a VZW retailer and today I had to deal with the biggest paperwork mistake I have ever seen in my 6+ months there. This simple mistake made by a co-worker led to a AM call, then a DM call for an override code. This could have all been avoided with ONE click in a different place. Here's how it started: My co-worker was selling a blackberry storm to a customer on an annual upgrade. As you ...
