    Angry Aus Customer Service Turning Bad Again

    Man !

    I gotta blow off some steam !

    It's gettin bad again...

    !@_&(%&()#_*(!&# - Edited for myself

    Bunnies floor personel - Bunnies office computer personel (help/info desk) -
    Bunnies clarks (check out) -
    ...don't have it. don't stock it...
    all probably do to the lack of properly trained personnel

    Officeworks copy people -

    Bolt Specialist - called first discussed requirements - confirmed stock and price - drove down 2 hours later - acted like he didn't know what I was talkin about - same guy and everything. Treated me like I killed his dog. So mad I'm not even going to mention the business name.

    Macdonalds - "Oh I got your order wrong again? I'll have to charge you extra for that" "Park over there and wait for your fast food"

    My gym - put membership on hold - sent me a confirmation only on my request - charged me for the month anyway.

    My local milk bar. Guys and girls chatting up each other makin me wait to pay cash.

    VB bulletin board moderator (9000 posts) picked one message (out of 60 where I did say thank you) where his automated signature for me failed and called me on not thanking the replyer for a reply. Just another bully just waitin to push his weight around.

    My daughter got left with her friend in a beauty parlor by the friends mom while her friend got her hair cut. My daughter is 9. Her friend is 11.

    Another occasion (week later) called the same friend to talk to my daughter. Friends dad told me she(my daughter) was "down the street somewhere. I don't know for sure". My daughter doesn't go over there anymore. Her friend always comes here now.

    Big scary guy riding on a bike towards me. Me in my car.
    Daughter in back seat.
    He screwed his face up hidiously and screamed something at me. passed me - he kept looking back like he was expectin me to come after him. ("its ok baby just a friend from the gym saying hello")

    Sorry, last two weren't customer service related. Well maybe just the last one wasn't. Just got me thinkin.

    Trying my best to be a better woodworker. Better person.

    Havin a really hard time with it.

    Daughter returns to school tomorrow.
    My lifeline to sanity.

    Its gonna be just me, against all of them...

    Default All easy to fix

    " Bunnies floor personel - Bunnies office computer personel (help/info desk) -
    Bunnies clarks (check out) - "

    Only shop at Bunnies at 8.55pm on a weeknight, give myself five minutes before closing to do whatever I need. Sometimes all 10 staff are running between departments looking for stuff....if you wait long enough they'll find it for you!!


    "Officeworks copy people -"

    Ditto....refuse to leave until the job is done right, even if it takes an HOUR after closing time..........

    "Bolt Specialist"

    A bit harder---start asking to see samples of various products on the excuse that you don't know if you can make it work..twenty or thirty different nuts bolts etc, make sure that you start only a few minutes before going home time....ooohhhh they hate that, and you keep being more and more apologetic, but don't let them go....

    "Macdonalds - "
    Sorry pal, you get what you deserve when you enter the old Scottish hamburger shop. Try Subway next time...it's better for you anyway.

    "My gym"

    Self inflicted I'm afraid, dunno why you triton people need big muscles anyway, buy a bike.

    "My local milk bar"

    How quaint...pay cash for what...not cigarettes surely?? Do I need to go on?

    "My daughter got left with her friend.... Her friend always comes here now."

    Well that wasn't hard to fix! One out of twelve is a start anyway, and no blood on the carpet either.

    "Big scary guy riding on a bike towards me."

    Follow him home at a safe distance and steal his bike....save you buying one. (See "GYM" above.) He is probably the son of the guy in the bolt shop anyway.

    "Daughter returns to school tomorrow.
    My lifeline to sanity."

    How sad, my kids were (are) my lifeline to INsanity, a much nicer place......

    "Its gonna be just me, against all of them.."

    Or you could use their strengths as a weapon grasshopper...........


    All the best on your road to enlightenment,

    I was expecting something like "Dude, you ARE an ASS, you get what you deserve!"

    Dav,
    Yes, alcohol and a big heavy stick.
    Even the fantasy makes me feel better.


    Doc / Master / Sensai,
    Wow! Thanks for the detailed positive and humerous replys.
    Had me rof and lol.
    What a great way to start the day.

    I'm looking forward to the trials of being a better woodworker now.

    Thanks heaps guys...


    Now if I could just close this thread before someone posts a negative to ballance these out.

    I could come back every once in a while and top up on my positive thinking.

    (jeez, what a pesimistic prat I've become)

    You guys rock...
