My co-worker

a Girl

Mar 27, 2009, 6:42 PM
is yelling in the phone. He does this all day to all customers. He must think the microphones on our headsets are not very sensitive. Its obnoxious and now he is telling a customer about buying hand grenades and how to avoid having his head cut off. WTF???

I have a weird, off-color co-worker too. He gets REALLY loud when he's excited and fills the whole store with the annoying sound of his voice.

Customers have complained to our main retail sales center about how obnoxious he is.

That's hilarious. The guy that works with me now used to work at a call center and I would have been SO CONFUSED if I was a customer and got him on the phone. He doesn't have a wonderful command of the English language and tries really hard to sound smart... and fails miserably.

I can only dream of what it would be like with direct lines or extensions....

Every call center has their own number that routs callers to that center. If you give me the number, I'll call for April fools and act like I'm going to set up service with him.

I'll just listen for a guy who's yelling. ๐Ÿคฃ

I know, I like it better, but when I was inbound sales you didn't wait half as long on the phone for someone to call in wanting service as I do on weekends in a store! Plus, people weren't able to see my face over the phone... I had more control over what I could do in the billing system... just to name a few things...


The only thing that REALLY sucked was that I was sitting all day long.

I think I'd stand all day on any given day (that I wasn't pregnant)... carrying around an extra 40 pounds more than I'm used to really effing sucks...

Especially since I had just gotten done LOSING IT... and then I get pregnant. ๐Ÿ™„

That's how my luck works.
