My Complaints
07/12/99
Customers are so dumb. im starting my page
out like this because its the easiest thing
to complain about. i work in retail, and
dont get me wrong, i like what i do, but
customers are so stupid sometimes. this one
lady came in and ordered some copies and so i
had them made for her and when she was all
ready to pay, she asked me how much i charged
her per copy. I told her .09 and she said
that the pricing board said .06. i tried to
explain to her that that was for the paper
and no copy. with the copy it would be .09.
i got the supervisor involved and he said
just give it to her. so i did. i can kinda
see where she would get confused, but she
would not let it go. she kept going on and
on about how she didnt understand why we
didnt have the real price and all this stuff
about it. i ended up explaining it to her at
least 5 times before i gave up. i mean we
gave her her whole .03 cents off per copy
what else could she want??? finally i
ignored her and started helping other
costomers. she left. now i think she felt
like a dumb stupid person(im trying to watch
my language here, thats a whole other
subject, maybe the next one)and didnt want
to look like an idiot so she kept trying to
make her lame point.

Peoples language is another one. ok i swear
sometimes, but never ever infront of my
daughter or other kids. people should
respect that kids should remain innocent for
as long as possible. ive even heard people
talk about violence, sex, and drugs right
infront of thier own kids or someone elses.
what is going to become of the world if kids
think that what adults are speaking around
them is normal? i concider my page a g rated
site, and will keep it that way as long as
everyone who wants access has it. if someone
is speaking about anything not g rated around
my daughter i let them know i dont appreciate
it. if i have to i will leave. it is that
important to me that she not have to worry or
hear about adult stuff.

whats with all these forwards? im so sick of
them. ok ill admit it, at first they were
kind of fun and sent them out to some
people. ok ill admit again that i do like
very few forwards. i dont know much
about how the internet works or computers in
general, for that matter (come on i have
webtv hehe) but i do know somethings. #1 you
cant track emails, so youre not going to get
1,000 dollars from bill gates #2 theres no
poor boy out there that will get 5 cents to
go to his medical bills, everytime you send
the email #3 sorry folks but your wish will
never come true no matter how many poor
people you annoy by sending the message to.
#4 your true friends will not fwd back the
forwards. im sure there are more, but im not
going to sit here and ponder it anymore. i
do have one thing i cant figure out
though--how do i tell family members not to
send my forwards and to send me real mail??
sleep on that one and email me in the
morning.

speaking of webtv. i was reading those
newsgroup things about webtv, (everyone
should read those by the way, youll laugh)
and there were people on there, im talking
about 20 people, who were going off about how
they hate webtv and how it sucks cause they
cant download or hook up a scanner among
other things. i couldnt believe what these
people were saying. hello it says
web--meaning the internet and
TV--meaning your television, not
webtv--meaning a computer. i like my webtv,
im just happy i can complain about a bunch of
stuff and let anyone who wants, see it. why
i dont know, everyone has their own
complaints and will probably complain about
me.

speaking about complaints, i hate it when
people complain to the wrong person. i used
to cashier for a major department store, and
people would complain to me about stupid
stuff. like prices, service, selection,
weather, and more, while complaining to me im
thinking "like i care humm i wonder how much
time i have to work before i go home?" then i
say yes im sorry sir or mam ill tell a
manager right away and thinking "yeah right
like hed care, or if he did theres nothing he
could do" then id say thank you have a nice
day. my sister and i were at the 99 cent
store. some lady was complaining that she
didnt get one buy one free on something and
the girl trying to help her tried to explain
that it wasnt buy one get one free, and told
her that she would give it to her anyway.
the lady would not let it go and kept saying
how she was going to report the store to the
better business bureau and all this stuff. i
was thinking its 50 cents lady. get over it.
like the worker cared if the 99 cent store
was reported. my sister and i decided after
that, that we were going to say something to
dumb customers when we were customers, to
help the store people out cause we know how
it is. everyone should. then stupid people
wouldnt complain about stupid things to the
wrong people.
