Same reason people go for snide comments on the huddle. Some people are kind because they were taught or believe that kindness is an important quality to their personality and to humanity in general. Others see kindness as something that is required by social contract because there are consequences for being rude. Remove those consequences - either through anonymity or through never having to see someone ever again - and you get dickheads. Lots and lots of dickheads.

Ok I work in customer service and I have to ask a question - why do people go for the snide comments and yelling ploy? Has that ever actually worked for anyone? If so I would love to hear it.

Basically your company pissed me off and despite the fact that you have done nothing wrong you are the representative who is designated to pick up the phone.

I'd love to speak with the CFO who made the decision to screw me over but I will never get ghrough to him/her.

FWIW I am never the guy who yells at customer service reps

Cool feel you on that..... what I mean is if I have the power to help you as soon as I understand your problem wouldnt you want to try seeing if I can help you then going off if I cant?

*note people seem to think by customer service I am the guy sitting on the phone talking to you...... this isnt what I do exactly.

People feel the customer is always right.

Guess what...they aren't. If they are proven not to be and still are beligerant, smile and ask if there's anything else you can do for them.

That or they are still operating under the "squeeky wheel gets oiled" modus operandi.

Damn right. Nothing like getting a good CS rep on your side.

I bet you can attest that you can pull strings. Depending on what your role is.

After my 20 in the Navy I spent almost 18 with Lowe's Home Improvement. I can honestly say I did my best to help people and answer their questions everyday. On the opposite side of that coin, I also have never believed nor espoused to the notion the "customer is always right." Sorry, they aren't.

I had no issue telling a customer to calm down and lower their voice because the longer they yell and be obnoxious, the less inclined I am to help them out. On one occasion I actually walked with a customer into the parking lot to their car and told them to never step foot in my store again when they complained about the mentally challenged kid that wasn't loading their truck fast enough.

I had a drunk customer drop the MF on a female cashier, yelled at her until she was in tears and when I came around the counter and went nose to nose with the POS, I told him (with a few other customers within earshot, unfortunately) that I would beat his ass right then and there if he didn't GTFO of the store.

I've never spoken to anyone in the CS business that way and I don't tolerate other people doing it, either.

      Canales is holding us back

      By RumHam · Posted

      NEVER FORGET!!!!   Canales was on no one's radar. Tepper couldn't get anyone to come here. He was all in on Ben Johnson. Nobody wants to work with Tepper, however Canales tenure may prove important for the next guy. This guy still has no idea what he's doing.

      Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      The 4th down play was poor execution by Chuba. He didn't want to get physical like Rico and cut North South to lean on his blocks from Tremble and Ekwonu for half a yard. Also, the 3rd down play before that Bryce audibled out to a QB run and almost got the 1st down was on Chuba for not knowing the play call leading to poor execution. You can see Chuba's confusion when Bryce had to realign him. Then Chuba thought he was getting the handoff and was slow to develop his double team on the DE with Tremble. Then Chuba hesitated on pushing the block and just ran to the sideline making Bryce have to loop around him. This pulled the DE away from Tremble forcing Chuba to chip on the DE late and leaving the safety as a free defender. Chuba was suppose to double down on the DE to let Tremble peel off to the safety. This allows Bryce to set up his run to the inside or outside after the safety commits. You can also see Tremble walk over to talk to Chuba after the play and Chuba shrugs which tells me he didn't know what to do. The audible would have worked on 3rd and the dive would have worked on 4th. The plays were good calls and drawn up well. The question is why was Chuba unprepared for those plays in two critical back to back plays? I like Chuba as a 1st down RB and passing downs, but I have always seen him lacking the power and vision to be a short yardage power back. Chuba didn't come prepared for the Saints game or he was thrown into a position at the 3 spot that he was never prepared for.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By Diehardpanth02 · Posted

      Yeah man, that was a catch. I like to imagine the game isn’t rigged but it’s well known sports betting is ruining the sport. Unfortunately, most coaches plan for 3 phases of the game. But there is really 4, offense, defense, special teams, and special occasions. on special occasions the refs can influence the game, leaving you in positions your actively planning to stay out of and how you respond in those special occasions make or break the game. Other times it’s other reasons. But I like to hope that the right team, or right player can extend past those types of setbacks and still find a way. anywho, probably a pipe dream. But it’s how I see it.
