I Am wondering, can I put up with me?




Has anyone noticed that both Mooch and Mr. Bouy are taking naps?

    Not all companies perceive their customers in the same way.  For some, their customers represent the company's entire reason for existence.  Others have a friendly, but wary relationship with theirs.  Some view customers as an undesirable distant relative you simply must invite, but you have no intention of seating at the Adult's table.  Still others see their customers as annoying leeches, not necessarily harmful, but unpleasant and repulsive at best.  Some perceive them as fools, deserving of derision and scorn.  Some view them as hapless victims, helpless and vulnerable.  Some see them as ugly, hideous beasts who should be coralled, caged and culled for their nearly worthless hides.  Some others see them as inherently and completely evil, the very spawn of the nether regions of reality itself, deserving of all manner of harsh, swift, brutal justice.

    So, your customer service skills are sure to fit in somewhere.

    That was my Optomistic Thought of the Day.

    How does one service a customer?

    On a hoist or a bench?

    I think I may have a future in this field.

    Thanks so much for the kick start.

    Mike
    Here are a few simple questions

    Do you hate people?
    Do you like to piss people off?
    Do you feel good screwing people over?
    Are you comfortable discussing things you know nothing about?
    Can you win any argument, whether your points are valid or not?
    Would you prefer to cheat someone out of $1 rather than make $2 honestly?

    If you answered yes to more than two of these questions, there could be a rewarding career awaiting you in customer service.  If you answered yes to all of them, you are uniquely qualified to work in the cell phone or time share  businesses.
