Stupid Customer of the Day

Dear man-with-a-mite-problem,

What makes you think that I want to hear you talk about your scrotum? At great length? Without letting me get a word in edgeways? I understand that the itching is very irritating, but once again - TMI!

No love,
Zin

I don't even know how to reply to this!?! Since when is talking about mite on your scrotum considered polite smalltalk?? *falls over laughing*

'Polite' is clearly a word that does not exist in the worlds of certain people... At least I got one more thing to add to the list of 'stupid shit people call their exterminator about'.

Maybe he wanted you to treat his scrotum at the same time as his house....LOL

By spraying it with poison... Yay!

Well, Sir, if you didn't have such a mite friendly scrotum, they would leave you alone. May I recommend the use of a bar of soap?

Apparently all the mites come from the bird that has a perch outside his window. Yeah, right...

Oh. Migawd. ~o_0^ !!

I don't know how you manage to talk with those people with such civility & grace. You are truly the Goddess of Customer Service! :: stealthily skooches closer to Zin in hopes some will rub off ::

Haha, I frequently want to bang my forehead against the keyboard. Maybe that would make the stupid go away?

Or at least you could watch the pretty colored spots for a while.... But then you might get a headache. And there seems to be plentiful new stupid every day in your job!

Mmmm... cookies... *munches*

Heh, Mr Boss gets to know everything, down to the very last detail. If we have to listen to the stupid, so does he! It's also very fun to transfer the most obstinate telemarketers to him and listen to his expert way of handling them *g*
