The Whining and Bitching Thread

I think this was a cold. Better today and all the windows are open.

I was just at the supermarket the other day looking at fish sticks! I think all this talk of them is a sign.
 
I'm starting to find myself discriminating against Indians. They're an absolute pain in the ass to work with at my job.

Working on their tickets is like fishing for salmon with a popsicle stick, 3 feet of kite string and a chunk of cheddar cheese. They'll put nothing in the problem description other than "Please do the needful", don't answer my calls or have a voicemail where I can say "WHAT THE FUCK IS THE NEEDFUL?!?1 THAT'S NOT EVEN A WORD, ASSHOLE!"

Furthermore, they don't respond to my emails, and they'll reopen tickets that I close due to lack of contact. An absolute nightmare for my metrics.

I'm having this same problem with black people. Absolute nightmare to deal with in a customer service environment.

Not new for me. I've worked with Indians a bunch of times and yes they are pain in the ass. Even now i'll try to avoid Indians as much as possible.
 
Working in a pharmacy in a low income area, most of my customers are black. Some are rude and talk on the phone the entire time, but, generally, white trash is by far the worst.
 
There aren't many white trash in my area but I hate them too. The black people I've had problems with either pitch a fit if we're out of a product, complain about some kind of minor inconvenience (like the stockers having a pallet sitting in an aisle) or turn otherwise petty qualms into massive problems, with the ultimate goal to only get free stuff. That's always the demand.

Yup. I once saw a woman in a grocery store sitting on the floor hollering next to one squished grape. Claiming injury and whatnot.

I answer phones all day. It's pretty bad, especially when the people on the phone know nothing about life insurance yet own 4 policies.
 
I do pretty much the same thing Mike does. The company I work for is a ticket outsourcing company. We handle customer service and inbound (sometimes outbound) sales calls for performing arts company and sports teams around the country.

Not to be a total bigot here but I have to say this: black people in the Cleveland, Ohio area are the WORST people to talk to on the phone.
 
Old people aren't TOO bad. Noy nearly as bad as the black people from that general area. The old folks just get upset about having to pay surcharges on their theater tickets, haha.
