Too vaque for me

[XXDarrienX]

Talk about Vague information


Me: Thank you for calling Cable Company this is Darrien, how can I help you today?
VL: Hello, my friend told me that I would need you call you guys to be setup for the big tennis tournament.
Me: Is it a PPV event?
VL: No, its just a important Tennis Tournament.
Me: Do you know what channel its on?
VL: No, don't you people know what its on or heard of it?
Me: I am sorry mam but I need to know what channel it is on to find it for you. There is no event just called Big Tennis Tournament
VL: Alright, I guess I am going to have to call you guys back. *click*
Me: wtf?

I was unaware that we are supposed to know ever. I find out later that its part of the sports package, granted we just changed our channel lineup two days which I did not work. If your going to be vaque you can't expect me to know.

But you work for the cable company... surely you know every show that's on, every show that's ever been on, and every show that ever will be on?

Wait'll you get this one:

Caller: The baseball game's in a rain delay.
Me: Well... weather happens.
Caller: Here's the thing. I have to be at work by 6:30. Any chance the game will be restarted in time for me to see the end of it?
Me: I'll do my best, but I can't make any promises.

That's a true story.

I have yet to experience the stupidity about bills and complaints I have read on the boards. Some of them just baffle me, I know the moment I get one that I am going to be speechless.

Sorry sir, you'll have to take that one up with God. I don't control the weather from my station. Oh, can I transfer you, no I'm sorry, I don't have the power to do that either. I'd suggest going to your local church to see if they can assist you.

My personal favorite is the sweet little old ladies . . .and they really are nice . . .who have 13 inch tvs. They call and ask what can be done to remove the black bars at the top and bottom of the screen . . .cause the picture becomes too small.
(remember this is cable not widescreen rental)
Of course you have to explain that has to do with the fact that the movie was filmed in letter box and you have no control over it. Typically seen on AMC or Turner Classic - their favorite channels. Of course I wanted to suggest buying larger tv's but I got the impression they were usually on a fixed income.
