Tell me something I didn't know!!! :D :D

Sorry you evening was lost Sadora...but you were right in not "fucking him"....

Hopefully your next rendez-vous will be jerk free!!!!:D

Scotz-----You're right about garages(service stations)screwing people!Years ago;I watched a TV show;where they unplugged a
rubber hose on an automatic transmisson.You wouldn't believe the different estimates that they got from different places.The best was at a local garage.An employee went for a test ride with
the owner;of the car.When they got;on the other side of the block
he climbed under the car,plugged the line back in and said"Don't
tell my boss!"The worst offender was "Amco"Transmisson.Their
estimate was several hunndred dollars. Irish

Ok, here goes...woohoo I finally get to vent my anger out on someone besides my boyfriend...hehe!!!
I'm an assistant manager at a 7-11 and on the weekends I do paperwork....every sunday this *bitch* that I work with (and that's putting it nicely) stands around and reads the newspaper and eats for 8 hours...while I'm in the back doing my work shes just standin around bein lazy....GRRRRRR!!!! AND then every 2 hours she has to go to the bathroom...for 20 f*kin minutes...and she reads and talks on her cell phone while in there.....I SWEAR I'M GONNA HIT HER ONE DAY. It wouldn't be so bad if she was nice to me or even tried to show initiative to work...but no she just complains about bein there and blah blah blah....I HATE HER. OK I could go on but I probably don't have to....she is just horrible and I hate working on sundays because of her stupidity.....
Stupidity should be punished...in my opinion.

I didn't think that I would ever post in this thread because I seem to be bitching about certain things alot. So I just decided that I'd keep my mouth shut when this one opened up.

I have to admit that tonight something happened that pushed me over the edge.

I hate people that go through the drive through at a fast food place, and ask the person on the other end of the speaker how much things on the menu are.

Do they NOT see the big sign out near where their car is ??? It has these things called LETTERS on it..and usually (but not always)right after the letters, are some things called NUMBERS. If you read those two things, you should be able to figure out how much the food (in this case) costs. Some of the signs even come with PICTURES to help explain what the item is.

(come up for air, Nutworld)

It may come to a shock to people, and evidently most people don't realize, that the store employees probably don't have the entire menu committed to memory, and can't recite all cost on a whim. That is the reason for the sign that is back there in the first place.

(breath, nutworld, breath)

It was completely shocking to me to hear a customer complain that
A)because I didnt have the menu committed to memory, and
B) didn't know the price of a newer item that they wanted.. the result of this was,......... and I quote:
"you are a fucking idiot, and we are leaving".

I've never in my life had the F-bomb dropped on me by a customer at a place of employment. I don't mind having someone complain that the service I give is slow, or I'm not speaking clearly enough, but is there a call to drop an F-bomb, when the customer has the info at their disposal? Is there anywonder that the general consensus is; that people are getting more and more rude.


We now return you to your regulary scheduled broadcast.

Sadora, some people just can't help being cheap ass-holes.
Sympathy is called for, because he'll probably never know his
shortcoming.

Nutworld, shame on you.
The customer is always right. Arrogant, insufferable, horrible,
opinionated, mistaken in matters of fact, but right.

OF,

I can handle "right"...but the F-Bomb?

Nutworld---Those are the same people;that get in the Exact Change Lane;on the turnpike and then look for the money while
everyone else waits.
O.F.I had this discussion with my supervisor;on a previous job!The
business rule is that the customer is always right.In reality;they
are seldom right. Irish

Whenever you see another person getting mad;just look at them
and say:Anger is the wind;that blows out the light of the mind!"
If you think that they were mad before;wait until you see them after you say that!SUGGESTION-Stand Back. Irish

Irish,
I believe that thought is TOO advanced for many of our customers. They just wouldn't get it.


PS- might that be part of why the job you mentioned is a "previous" job???

Hey Sugarsprinkles,

your IN box is full.

LOL So is yours!!! Clearing mine momentarily!!

oops...that damn glass house of mine..

Nutworld---I knew that that question would come up.Must be my
pyschic powers.The awnser is NO.I have worked for that place
twice.It is a fill in job.The supervisor mentioned; is one of the owners of the business.It is an automotive parts supplier.I was
originally hired by his father and he knows that I know automobiles;like the back of my hand.I guess that he figures that my mechanical knowledge is worth putting up with my shit. Irish
P.S.His father died a few years ago.The business is now owned by
him,his brother,and their brother-in-law.(sisters husband)

I realize I am late in replying to this thread but the saying goes.......better late than never!

My biggest pet peeve?

Ever drive behind a car with a child standing up in the back seat? Believe me I know it doesn't just happen in Pa. I have been up and down the entire east coast of the USA and I have seen it throughout all states. If I can make a plea here tonight then I will be happy!

First and foremost let me say ........I have no children of my own....but I am not unaware of the horror of not wearing a seat belt!!!!

PARENTS!!!!!!!!.......PLEASE OH PLEASE..........PUT YOUR CHILD IN A SAFETY RESTRAINT! IF YOU GET IN AN ACCIDENT YOU ARE MORE LIKELY TO SURVIVE AS THE DRIVER THAN YOUR CHILD WOULD AS A FREE SPIRIT (because he isn't bitching about having to be in a seatbelt) RUNNING AROUND IN THE BACK SEAT OF A VEHICLE!!!!!

The addage......."It will never happen to me"......has been repeatedly regretted by many parents that think this initially! We are all at risk...........no matter how good a driver you are.......there is always one fucking asshole out there that might just have your ticket in any one particular day!

TY......I feel so much better now!
