[Crazy Dazz]

I HATE (with a passion) the brain-dead maggots that are employed by large companies to staff their call centres and IT support centres. Granted, said maggots are usually some illiterate Bangladeshi peasant being paid 2 cents an hour, but still WHY waste the money?
Why not just have a recorded message that says "**** off." Or if they want to be polite, just a message (recorded and on their website) saying "sorry, we do not provide customer support."

One day, very soon, there will be headlines saying "thousands dead in call-centre bombing tragedy" and everybody will tut-tut and wonder why.

It's not just a once off, or an occasional thing, it is a reoccurring theme.

And the worst thing is, that it makes no sense. Nobody who is annoyed enough to complain, or who has a enough of a problem to ask for help, is going to be satisfied by their stupid brush-offs. So at BEST, all they have achieved for their 2 cents is to **** off their customers. At worst, the customer will keep on and on and on, consuming even more of their time, getting more ****ed off, and eventually desert them for a competitor.

The ones I REALLY HATE are when I go out of my way to HELP THEM by pointing out that something is incorrect or broken. Eg one of their links is broken, etc. ie something that is costing them money.
But instead of saying "thanks, we'll fix that," they send me a pile of ***** about how it must be a problem with my computer and I should try updating my browser.
