Why do people call from repair/machine shops? Where there is all this noise?
First, let me bitch about my cw. Me and cw were in phone reference from 7-8. I started to ask her if she goes into facebook could she get in an application she has but doesn't use and give me her tickets. As usual, as I was talking to her, another cw comes up and interrupts us. She needed from cw a change in the schedule.
So cw worked on this, then asked me to help her find the application. I was showing her how when her phone rings and she answers the question.
One of the bad habits cw has is talking a person ears off. And try to be funny. She was on a phone call for 15 min. The person wanted to go to a restaurant in Kemah for her bd. Person wanted to know aabout a particular restaurant and cw was telling her personal experience. One part of the convo was like this:
cw: Oh, it's your bd. You should call them and tell them that. Tell them that you want a shark for your birthday, hee hee!...a shark. Yeah. If you need to make reservations for a party.
She used to bitch about another cw spending 20 min on the phone with a customer while the rest of us answers the phones non-stop.
Anyway, I get the call from dickwad calling from a machine shop. I see his name on caller id, so he must own it or else he likes being loud in his garage. The guy wanted a copy from 1992 Redbook. I was thinking, "what redbook?" when he clarified it was the magazine. So I have to look up if we owned it and didn't see it online.
me: sir, did you get this from us before? I don't see it...
I hear background noise that signifies a lot of banging on metal is going on.
me: sir... SIR!
cw: damn! she is so loud! (or something like that)
dude: yeah
me: are you sure got this from us before?
dude: yeah.
me: ok, I have to double check....ok, sir, I still don't see it in our list but I will request it for you. Sir? Sir? *slam phone*
30 seconds latter.
dude calls
dude: Hey, someone hanged up on me.
me: I'm sorry sir, I couldn't hear you, and it didn't seem like your attention was on me....
dude: what!
me: I couldn't hear you, and it didn't seem like your attention was on me, and I had to go to the next call.
dude: *slam phone*
So I was so pissed I turned off my phone and went to my desk to cool down. I left my cw by herself, though we were kind of quiet, so I didn't feel bad.
Mostly I'm pissed at the guy who couldn't bother to go somewhere quiet to make the call. Also, pissed at my cw, who couldn't find a polite way to tell me I was loud. It's not my fault I had to raise my voice to get the guy's attention, though I guess I could have just hung up instead of raising my voice.
