Would you buy the bluetooth If I pulled it out of the box and it had some funky shit on the part that goes in your ear? No. So I have to clean this shit.

You're in the wrong job. Simple as that. Your job is customer service and yet you are so infuriated by what is part and parcel of that system... You know why you have to do it. You mentioned it yourself. Your company pays you, among other reasons, to establish rapport with customers, whether they buy your products or not, because when they consider their next purchase, maybe your shop is at the top of their list. They sure as fuck won't go to the store with the staff who are arrogant or apathetic or unhelpful (or whatever else the poor sales staff are).

Trust me, I'm exactly the same. I worked casually in a department store for a good three years during university and would be livid when some old cow would tell me to pick pairs of shorts out for her husband without giving me any indication of what exactly he liked...

Perhaps you don't have much choice in terms of employment... but if you do, just get the fuck out.

I wouldn't want something attached to my skull that is continuously radiating.

I was agreeing with you, until i realized that your job is actually customer service.

lol you guys are so funny. Do you think any customer service person acknowledges loves and accepts idiots and douchebags as part of their job? No, we like other aspects of it, the sales environment, helping people find what they need. Technology in general. But there are people who are so painfully ignorant, when someone is telling me things I know as fact are wrong, then I get pissed. I am here to help you, you come seeking my help. Don't undermine my ideas for your bullshit (and wrong) reasons. If I had any question to whether or not I was right about something, I would happily look it up and learn something else. But when I tell you a Coaxial male is a Coaxial male, do not tell me and insist that it is fucking female.

I understand where a customers confusion comes from with something that, but when I tell you how it is, accept that no matter what you think THAT IS HOW IT IS.


Perhaps you don't have much choice in terms of employment... but if you do, just get the fuck out.

I will be leaving retail soon, I am quite bored with this. I love technology, but I am no longer motivated by a sales/commission environment. I have been considering being a waiter or other career choices which pay MUCH better than my current job. The reason I keep my job now is because I enjoy my down time and the people I work with. Besides that I don't like dealing with most customers, however some are cool and fun and I enjoy trying to fix whatever problems they are having, especially when I can tell they put in at least some level of effort into figuring it out themselves.
