does anyone here work as a customer service rep for Verizon?
I'm not talkin about wireless...I mean the Verizon the telephone+internet+tv company.

I thought I'd ask because I recently got a job as a behavior analyst for VZ customer service reps.
hehe

I worked as a sales rep for both verizon and sprint, I should have made a list of all the assholes that gave me the run around when I called the vendor line. Those people are god damn stupid.

I did sell phones mostly, but I also sold their internet service as well for laptops and such.

Its not that they were bad at their job for the average customer, but I wouldn't have to call unless I had some problem thats not on their talking/process sheet, and I would often have to get a different rep and go up the ladder a bit.

A good call at their vendor number for a wireless or internet customer would take about 30 seconds to a minute. Not always the case, but also not never the case either.

I can rarely even get the right department or whatever so I have to re-call a lot. -.-

I do know that on their website you can go into an IM convo with their reps- it's real fun to do when you are bored in comp. class.

I have fios and I live in NYC!!!! Hahahaha fools!

+ Show Spoiler +
But seriously, I got scammed by a random Verizon rep who came to our house and forced me to sign for FIOS THAT THE BILL + HOUSE WAS UNDER MY DAD'S NAME. Tried to change and prevent it but no good and got into a fight on a phone with a verizon rep lady and told her "WHEN I EVER MOVE OUT OF THE HOUSE, I'M NEVER EVER GETTING ANY VERIZON RELATED PRODUCTS EVER AGAIN! THAT INCLUDES CELLPHONES!"


I sure hope that isn't either of you I fought with..

I don't understand exactly what happened from your description but I nearly had a conversation of the same tone with them over wireless recently.
