Today should officially be declared:
"Stupid people day" or how about...
"Lack of common sense day"
My whole day and for many of my co-workers has been chaotic!
I've dealt with a customer leaving me neutral feedback on E-bay because I didn't respond to his two e-mails. He sent the e-mails AFTER the feedback was left and on a Saturday not during normal business hours - they were responded to immediately.
Then (this is a good one, not a bad one) I had a customer saying is shipping on 2 65 lb. pails really only $11.98? Yes, we cover the difference...lucky customer...well then another customer COMPLAINS about $11.98 to ship to 65 lb. pails across the United States!
Then, I spend half my day explaining what someone thinks is an issue that it really isn't an issue and that we've looked at it 20 times from 5 different people...the part that irks me is that this person is new (<1 year) and has been caught almost DAILY sleeping in meetings and in his office without being fired. Don't waste MY time at work because you can't stay awake and play poker until 3 a.m. on weeknights!!!!
Oh, and did I say I haven't had lunch and this is my break for the day do to all this?
...and I keep thinking to myself...these people not only vote, but they reproduce!!!!
Ok, I feel better now, venting done back to the GOOD things at work and in life...I hope all your Mondays are better...at least I only have to spend 14.2857% of my life on Mondays!
