Does anything I say matter? *warning language (long with rant and flashback)

[Mordecai]

My immediate mental reply was, "You sound fat. Your kids are probably fat too. Keeping this $50 out of their mouths is doing you a favor."

I won't deny I'm a bit of a jerk.

Ha ha, that reminded me of this picture.

[Sheldonrs]

Because they believe no one ever ever ever wants to see a child hurt in any way and will do whatever it takes to prevent that occurrence.

They're right. I don't want to SEE it. An e-mail with the details will suffice.

Me: I am sorry ma'm but the cancellation policy was explained.

Caller: Yea I am not saying that it wasnt.

"Im glad you understand that, now is there anything else I can help you with, no okay have a good day bye."

CLICK

[Jester]

Me: Ok ma'm I will go ahead and cancle this for you....

And this, Hellzar, is where you let the SC win. Why? Why would you do that? Haven't we taught you better? We're not mad...we're simply disappointed.

You said you would have gotten written up for being rude. But if you were simply polite and firm in your refusal to go against a policy she agreed to, there would have been nothing for them to write you up for.

And if they wrote you up anyway, you are working for a bunch of chickenshit cocksuckers that need to be put in the line of fire on a gun range. Fuck them, the horses they rode in on, and their genetically defective families. Fuck them all.

A common misconception. After all, there are many annoying, pesky children that I not only would like to see hurt, I fantasize about it. Not all children are precious, not all children are cute, not all children are witty, and not all children are all that smart. Some of them are clearly annoying little cretins that need to be out playing in traffic to improve our severely substandard gene pool.

Gold Jester, pure gold.

People like that irk me. I'll bet she's the same kind of person who complains to her cell phone company about texting charges or fees for downloading ringtones or something, then tells the poor CSR that she "can't be expected to read the contract!"

Quoth Hellzar
Caller: yea. With the economy the way it is you are going to keep my 50 dollars that could be going in to my kids mouths

Am I the only one who pictured some idiot actually stuffing a $50 bill into some poor kid's mouth? Not because of anger or to punish the kid or anything like that; just because they're blatantly stupid? And the kid's got the most bewildered look on his face... Sorry, my imagination is running away from me again.

I bet she gets food stamps and other freebes from the govt. for her kids (note, nothing wrong with getting assistance, but I really hate the people who don't even have a job and tell me "I'm a tax payer, I pay for your salery!" while parts of the taxes I pay pays more for my salery then the asshole does).

Hopefully the loser doesn't call back tomorrow to complain you were rude (you weren't). He/She (?) doesn't get the clue that cancellation fee is a responsibility he/she needs to stuck with, so won't get teh clue that telling the manager that you were rude when you cancelled the reservation and refunded the fee will get him/her stuck with the fee, like you mentioned.

I also loved how the loser said he/she made the reservation the day before, when it was 2 hours ago. No freakin' shame that one.

[MoonChild2007]

"That didn't seem to bother you when you made the reservations."

I know its hard now and everything but stop with the economy crap! She should spend that 50.00 paying off some bills.

Marry me?

But seriously, for the OP, I've worked for idiots like that. Maybe if she had called in and said something like, "I'm so sorry, there's been an emergency. Can I cancel this one time?" But no, she should have thought things through before making a reservation. But that would take responsibility for one's actions.

[Jester]

Marry me?

But seriously.....

Why in my life does the one always get followed by the other?

For the record (and I'm not bitching, having gotten beyond that and just enjoying the bizarreness that is my life these days), I am the last of the seven cousins in my generation of my family that has never been married. Seven of us....myself, two sisters, two paternal first cousins, two maternal first cousins. Six marriages, two divorces. Two of the remaining marriages apparently still happy (and two not).

I myself have been engaged once, to a woman who said to me shortly after our engagement (in her very posh British accent), "You know, I won't breed for you." And people wondered what the attraction was.....

[Astrokitty]

(Sorry about the late responses, work has been eating me alive.)

I was married for 12 years to a guy who dumped me for something younger and cuter with a uterus.

Apparently my lack of this organ decreases my desirability.

Seriously! Every other letter on Planet Feedback uses this argument. It gets really old. Live within your means in the first place and "the economy" wouldn't be such a concern. If being charged for the night really means you can't feed your kids, you couldn't afford the hotel room in the first place.

I'm sure there are guys out there who would find it a plus.
PS I like your avatar

The lady who got me suspended from the grocery store for 3 days because of her complaint filed against me pretty much said the same old chestnut "taking food out of my children's mouths!"

Well let's see......you had a heaping cart of chips and soda pop. I'm sure your kids really won't be needing those.

[Naaman]

I'm sure there are guys out there who would find it a plus.

Aye.

Never wanted kids and between my sisters demon brood, my GFs niece and nephew and looking after next doors two I can happily say that my opinion hasn't changed over the years. Thankfully my GF also feels the same way

[blas]

I agree very much so. I'm sure there would be guys lining up outside your door that don't want kids or anymore kids
