Dear "Valued" Customer: (Longish)

My sup makes Khiras look pathetic. He's also Asian, so you're doing the WTF?!. (Disclaimer: Not meant to be a racist remark, but seriously, how many 6'3" 280 lb Asians do you run into?)

Not many. Where do I buy one? I need a new pet!

One of the guys that I went to school with has cousins in Malaysia. He says that his cousins really are that big. He said that they work as security guards. And as far as I know, South-East Asia can be a pretty scary place if you don't keep your eyes open.

There are 2 speeds of spelling, painfully slow and so fast it is all one jumble.

I don't know which is more annoying. With one you're waiting there typing every letter after you hear each one or you can't type anything because they're going too fast.

Same with phone numbers. The SCs rattle those off like nothing while I sit there and have to make myself look dumb by asking them to repeat it.

Hey, no dissing Khiras! He's mine! RAWR!


But I have a pretty complicated last name too. It's Polish/German in origin and I'm constantly having this exchange:

Phone Rep: And your name please?
Me: <first name> <last name> (spells last name)
Phone Rep: OKay Ms.........
Me: <first name> is fine. I have a complicated last name.
Phone Rep: No kidding! (insert laugh)

No, not rude or anything. I admit I have a complicated last name that has a few silent letters in it. You don't know this so I don't blame you for it.

Evil Queen, I also always spell out my last name after saying it. It's Italian and could be spelled many different ways.

I usually have to spell out my first name too, otherwise they will put an "e" on the end instead of putting an "a" like it is suppose to have. I also notice sometimes people will put in an extra "n".

Saydrah, I ran out of radio tags...

Actually, I think that you gave them to that cute stripper guy you had in.

[Evil Queen]

No, mine are black denum.

Actually, I think that you gave them to that cute stripper guy you had in.

I hope I got his number! Otherwise I get to roam the forums in my panties.

Huh, the things one learns reading CS.com

I always spell my last name. I shouldn't have to since it spells like it sounds, but for some reason people always want to throw an extra E in. Or replace the U with an I.

Then they pronounce it wrong when it's spelled correctly. Spelled with the extra E they pronounce it right.

[morgana]

No, the ones the stripper guy had were blue denim. You sure they're not under the couch?

Never mind, carry on.
