She may not have a receptionist, but does she have a cat?

I encourage my daughter (4) to run and peek through the small window beside the front door whenever the driver is out there taking photo. She always looks like a goblin.

That's some Major League parenting 😄✊️

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

Her child will definitely not run and hide from the doorbell/door knockers like the rest of us 😂

I mean.... the cat is obviously in charge of that house.

Do people not say hi to customer service reps?

[–] pantyhosewimp 33 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yea I agree with that wholeheartedly, but the point of it is about people sending someone a hi and nothing else, not ignoring basic manners.

Most of the time its a bot so why bother

[–] [email protected] 37 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Because that bot will remember your politeness and take pity on you when the robot uprising comes.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago

Yes everyone, ALWAYS BE KIND TO BOTS. Consider this a warning.

Because sometimes it's not a bot and on actual human with a shitty, shitty job. And those two keystrokes may actually mean the difference between them feeling shitty or not as shitty.

I do, even if it's a bot, because maybe it's not. I have worked on 2nd+ line tech support, and I'd often see 1st line getting mistreated by customers. I could never do 1st line.

If reception means to receive, then anyone who is given the package (receives it) is by default a receptionist. Therefore, if the delivery person hands the package to anyone, they've handed it to a receptionist. /s

delivery drivers lie all the time. when I was still in a row house, I watched the amazon guy from my window take the same package from door to door, put it down, take a picture, then pick it right back up and take it to the next stop where he did the same thing.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The ups guy that delivers to my work has been marking every package as signed for by a person who quit 5 years ago... Sometimes on stuff he didn't even leave at our building...

Well, at least the sense of humor is present on both sides.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I treat customer service reps with patience, friendliness, and a little bit of awkward humor. Had to activate a phone awhile back and was struggling. Had an issue with one of the steps just not working. It was due to their poorly worded online guide. Customer rep confirmed that this issue does happen, etc etc. Told her "It's okay. Small issue, we'll figure it out. You're not the one responsible, though I really appreciate your help."

Rep, "Oh no you've been really patient and kind! I am happy to help "

And she did help. Probably more than she needed to since she wasn't in the service department at all. I had been transferred to Sales without realizing. So huge props to her on that one.
