Back on topic with another call centre story:

Customer: Where are you from?
Me: I'm up here in Canada
Customer: Canada... y'all are communists, right?
Me:....what?
Customer: You know.. with that commie health care
Me: .....is that a serious question?
Customer: What?
Me: Is this a prank call?


I fixed the customer's issue and then got written up for that piece of dialog (performance assessment). Apparently asking someone too stupid to know about their neighboring country

I'm tempted to just answer with sport now (seems like thats usually all they want to know).

I ride a red sport bike. That's all most people need to know. If they know bikes, they'll guess what bike and it'll go from there.

from an kia dealership locally, my friend was getting a used g35

my friend: sir, the tires are the other way around, these ones(pointing to the front tires) should be on the rear
salesperson: no no no no no, the wider tires should be in the front because the engine is in the front and its a fwd, more traction you knowww
my friend & me: @_@...........@_@

CRS 06-10-2008 08:35 PM

Your friend is hilarious.

EuroTRASH 06-11-2008 09:36 PM

Idiot:<insert any question here>
Me: <insert serious response, no sarcasm etc.>
Idiot:"really?"

Honestly, why ask "really", that IS such a stupid question.

I've stopped answering people when they ask "really?" or any other similar question that asks the same thing as their first question. I just ignore them and continue whatever I was doing.

Big Daddy 06-11-2008 11:44 PM

I get people looking over my bike (now old bike), and then ask what size the motor is...
this usually happens when they're by the tail section which has "750" on it in silver numbers...

Another one is what kind of bike is that?
A Suzuki GSX-R 750
Sweet! What size is the motor?

Jackygor 06-12-2008 12:51 AM

That's more of a show of disbelief then an actual question.

Meet a friend at Tim Hortons while dressed for work in combats.

I was in the drive thru at time hortons getting my lunch. The employee asked me through the intercom:

"Is it for here or to go?"

I plan to compile a big pile of call centre calls into one long sound file and post it when I'm done work next month. Some of these are just so http://i.somethingawful.com/forumsys...s/emot-aaa.gif that they need to be heard to be believed.

Ikkaku 06-14-2008 01:37 AM

there was this one forum posting on a celica forum

guy A is trying to sell a part and lives in the states
guy B lives in Canada and wants to buy
guy C ... random guy asking questions

A: hey, so how much is shipping to Canada? I live in Alberta?
B: I live in Buffalo, I live pretty close to the to Canada, which province do you live in?
C: quotes guy B and ends with "?????wtf"
B: shut your trap, I know what I'm talking about. Province is what Canada calls 'city'."
