Stupid customers ahoy!

[zinnith]

Dear customers,
Could you please listen to my questions and answer the ones I'm actually asking? When I ask for your name, I don't want your phone number. When I ask for your insurance policy number, I don't want your address. I'm asking for the information I need, not the information you feel like giving me.
No love,
Zin


Dear telemarketer,
Could you please not belch in my ear? And if you accidentally do (we're all human after all, things happen), I believe it's considered polite to at least apologise.
No love,
Zin


At least this one realised he was being stupid:

Zin: I'm sorry, the owner is not available right now. May I ask him to call you back?
Customer: Yes, do that. Can you see the number I'm calling from?
Zin: Unfortunately not, but I can write it down.
Customer: Damn, I have a new number and I don't know it myself. But tell the owner to just call me back, he knows who I am.
Zin: Oh, okay. And he has your new number as well?
Customer: No, he doesn't. Damn. (pause) You know what? Just forget it. I'll call back later. Have a nice day.

I think I need to add some nice comfy padding to my desk to protect my forehead from all the headdesking...

Sadly, sometimes padding is essential.

Um...Wow. LOL The last one was cute in a funny way. How dumb can a person be, not everyone has caller ID in front of them!

Most people seem to assume that...

They need a smackdown!

A thousand times yes!--Dear Customer.

I say, 'Give me your phone number first.'

They say, 'My name is Blah Blah.'

Hello desk, here is my head.

It's so annoying! I have to fill in a lot of forms and when I ask for information in a certain order, I do it for a reason!
