    The Perfect Caller

    I finally had the perfect caller today. He understood every step and instruction that I laid out for him and did it all without questioning me if I was sure it would work. What could be the sum of this call? Glad you fraggin' asked!

    Me- The Lobo.
    SC- Smart Caller

    SC: My HP printer refuses to print my address lables, I've got the right paper but with MS Word it only prints about half the page.

    Me: Ok, I think you've got the wrong number. You might want to check the number and call again.

    SC: Will do. *hangs up*

    See? Perfect caller, direct, to the point, and doesn't question instructions. Now if only the bastiches who call me on purpose could do that...
    I can't decide who's dumber: my customers for their questions or me for willfully listening to their questions.

    My perfect callers call when I'm not stuck answering the phones.
    The best karma is letting a jerk bash himself senseless on the wall of your polite indifference.

    The stupid is strong with this one.

      My perfect calls are the ones where the customer hangs up just before I start my opening spiel.

      Me: "Thank you for..."
      *click*

      Love it!

        I had one of those today!

        Me: Computers, this is Hawaiian Shirts.
        Caller: Hey, I just got a computer from you guys yesterday and...
        Me: ... ... ... Did you have a question about it?
        Caller: Well, I... wait... Nevermind. I figured it out. Thanks! *click*

        It was a momentous occasion.

            I take supervisory calls from internal CS reps, so my *perfect call* is when the rep starts out with "Oh my god, I don't know whats wrong with this lady, she's called me every name in the book, she never pays her bills and...oh, she just hung up..OK nevermind."

              My perfect calls usually start with 1-900...

              Seriously, though, I have a perfect call everytime the other person doesn't call me "Kevin", "Colin", "Carmen" "Corwin", "Kalin" "Kenny" or "Corey". (My real name is Cameron, BTW.) Also, if I don't have to describe the part that I need in some crazy, fucked-up, "It's-the-part-that-has-the-hook-on-it-to-the-left-of-the-head-gasket" -style of ordering would be nice, as well.

              As long as it meets those two requirements, it's gravy.

                This happens to me all the time, and some days (today would be a sparkling example) it really annoys me. I feel for you on this one, Corbin.







                My perfect calls are usually the ones who hang up, too.
