Haven't posted much because it's just been the usual assortment of assclowns whining about prices and there's not much amusement in that but lots of me hanging up on folks.
Had a demanding EW this very afternoon. Keep in mind we stop taking orders for same day delivery at 2pm so that the florist has a 3 hour delivery window for that day.
Me: Thank you for calling, blah blah blah, this is calulu and how may I help you?
EW: Your website is busted.
Me: *putting phone on mute so I can heave a big sigh. morons always think I can just magically telepathically fix the website when it goes down and see all their information* And what seems to be the problem, ma'am?
EW: When I clicked on delivery for today the calender said to pick another day because delivery today was not possible. The site must be broken because your ad promises same day delivery.
Me: What city and state were you wanting that delivery in?
EW: Crazy Cakes Village Florida
Me: There's nothing wrong with the website. Orders for Florida same day cut off at 2pm
EW: Why? Your ad says same day, I demand same day delivery.
Me: Because all florists close at 5 pm and we must allow them a minimum of a 3 hour delivery window. All time zones cut off same day orders at 2pm.
EW: *whining now* Buutttttt thatttttttttts NOoooottttttttttttt FAIIIIIIIIR!!! Your ad and website should list that 2pm cutoff.
Me: But ma'am, it's not always 2pm. If there is a holiday or a weekend then that cutoff time can vary and that's the reason it's not actually listed on the site.
EW: FALSE ADVERTISING! FALSE ADVERTISING! THAT IS MISLEADING YOU ARE RIPPING OFF PEOPLE!! 111Eleventy!
Me: I'm sorry you feel that way ma'am
EW: I WANT TO SPEAK TO YOUR SUPERVISOR RIGHT NOW!
Me: No ma'am, I'm not transferring you.
EW: YOU. WILL. TRANSFER. Me NOWWWWWWWWW! 11111ELEVENTYYYY!
Me: No ma'am, if you wish to lodge a complain about our company you can email management at yourproblem@flowersofsuck.com
EW: *lots and lots of unintelligable screaming and more 1111eleventy followed by dial tone*
I'm still asking myself how that escalated so fast. I was polite and firm throughout and explained company policy. What did she hope to accomplish by asking for a supervisor? Our management team does not allow you to transfer angry customers to supervisors, you are expected to handle the twatwafflery on your own.
