  • I'm a REPUBLICAN!

    This woman... This is the first time I've EVER been so speechless with a caller. So, for your pleasure, I typed out the call notes from yesterday and will be changing the names to protect the stupid. These notes are typed exactly as they were in the account save for the name being changed.

    (BACKGROUND: This woman was from California. Call 1 was taken by a girl who sits right across the cubicle wall from me, call 2 was taken by me while my friend was still there, and call 3 was taken by another agent in our building.)


    Call 1:
    EW ci very very rude. Refused to all for any help bc
    she was too angry about ahving to press one on the system
    to get english. Said she is getting a colored pattern on
    several channels. Powercycled & sent hit no go. Cust
    refused tech b/c it was not her box it is our prob.
    Cust also stated that no one was coming into her apt.
    EW is very rude & won't let you help her (1:53pm est)


    Call 2:
    EW ci very rude// refused to confirm information for
    several minutes// insisted tech did not need to come out for
    colour patterns on one channel// informed that previous
    tech had sent signal and sub had already powercycled twice
    and that problem would now require tech// sub got irate and
    insulted previous tech because of sub having to press 1
    for english// sub said would call customer service to order
    inhouse tech and disconnected call// 2:13pm est


    Call 3:
    EW ci keeps over talking about she's a republican and
    christian and that ever since obama was elected we have
    been messing w/her service and now she can't let her get
    ahold of her news people and we are doing that to her. She
    was offered t/c before outage was declared in her area. She
    refused b/c she believes everyone is trying to break into
    her home. Sub stated she will report us to fox news for
    what we are doing. Sub does understand that outage would cause
    service problems.


    ETA: A glossary for come of the note terms: T/C = Trouble Call, CI = Called In, Sub = Subscriber

    As somebody who's probably more conservative than the majority of people on this board, I'd like to say assholes come in all shapes, sizes and political affiliations.

    What a lunatic.

        Haha, at my cable center (charter) that I used to be employed at, it was CCI. So I managed to figure this out mostly on my own.

          That's not even everything she said. At one point she told me she was probably the "Nicest, kindest person in the world," shortly after saying "I wrote a letter to the white house, to the president himSELF, telling him that what he's doing to old people's gonna come back to him eventually. And don't take that as a threat to the president, unless he thinks me telling him that what happens to everyone is gonna happen to him is a threat." Or asking me if I was the last girl she'd talked to, "Cause she didn't think english should be the national language!" (Again, this girl was sitting right across the wall from me.)

          When she started ranting about how she didn't want us to send a tech, I looked at the notes, muted the phone and went "Shit... Why'd you send her to ME?!" To my friend, who just laughed and went "Oh god it's her?"

              Of course she is; she brings all the whine!

                Reminds me of a certain quote from Tiny Toons from Montana Max. "You can't do this to me! I'm rich! I'm a republican!"

                  Call 3:
                  she's a republican and christian-snip- report us to fox news
                  you know, why am I not that surprised... there seems to be an odd correlation between the people who will use their religious and political affiliations to justify being an asshole and people who are proud to watch Fox news...

                  eta- I don't mean to imply that all republican christians who watch fox news are assholes... just that a lot of assholes who are christian and republican tend to watch fox news

                  That said, I'm an AP kind of guy

                    First, let me point out that I am a Republican, I watch Fox News, listen to Glenn Beck (and watch him on Fox News) and I voted for Bush twice...and if I could have afforded to and wasnt sick this weekend, I would have been at the D.C. Tea Party on the Mall last weekend.

                    That lady sounds completely bonkers. If she went to the Tea Party in D.C. over the weekend, they probably would have sent her home for being way too crazy to attend. They wouldnt have let her have any tea.

                      I'm a Republican, and work on the campaigns of local people/issues, as I represent my district as a Committeeman. I love Fox news and watch/listen to it almost exclusively.

                      That being said, I don't think there is a group, party, religion, race, fandom, etc that does not have a small but loud and obnoxious "moron minority" that gives the rest of them a bad name.

                        Quoted for truth.

                        That lady is nuttier than Squirrel Girl.

                        If you don't want the problem solved, then fine. But don't berate those who can and will (try to) help you!

                          Just a quick note.... This wasn't me saying all republicans are bad... That's just what she kept screaming O.o "I'm a republican and a christian and probably the nicest kindest person in the world!"

                            Well, I guess part of it comes down to the choices we all have for our quote-unquote "leaders" when it comes to elections (local or otherwise), as they are quite often shining examples of the things the opposite party hates...I think the South Park guys had it right (paraphrasing):

                            "Voting IS important, but every election since the beginning of time has been between some douche and some turd. They're the only people who suck up enough to get into power in the first place"



                            Repub with Libertarian leanings here (no, I don't quite understand that statement myself)..And no offense taken. That sort of person is present in EVERY party and other way of thinking. The Insane EW Virus is universal, politically correct, and equal-opportunity. It takes no sides, it knows ALL creeds, nations, and yada yada yada ~_~
