Phone jockey, I get calls very much like this one, in fact, I got one today:
SC: You know who
Pink: Me
First a little background: I work for a utility company. We provide gas and electric, but not both to all areas of the state. Some cities get gas, some get electric, and some get both.
SC: My electric isn't working.
Pink: I can help you with that. May I have your address please?
SC: <Gives me her address>
Pink: I'm sorry ma'am, but we do not provide electric service to "Some city"
We are your gas provider.
SC: But I pay you every month. I know you are my electric company.
Pink: I'm sure you do pay us each month. We provide your gas service, but
your electric company is "company a" and you will need to call them to
report your outage. If you need the phone number, I can provide it for
you.
SC: (Now screaming) DON'T PASS ME OFF TO ANOTHER COMPANY! YOU'RE
MY G-DAMN ELECTRIC COMPANY SO FIX IT NOW! <CLICK>
I love when they hang up like that.....waves of pleasure washed over me and I sat there laughing my azz off! Sheer stupidity strikes again!!
