I just got fired. From Yahoo. Well, from Yahoo’s call centre. How bad is that; I got fired from a job that a monkey could do, because I had the unfortunate belief that customer service should be just that, customer service. Yahoo, however, believes that if you mention one wrong word, said customer will sue their ass off. Therefore, Yahoo customer service means “sorry, you can’t remember the secret answer you typed in 5 years ago, so fuck you very much and thank you for calling.” Sorry, I had to get this off my chest and thank God you guys are here! I’m not sure I’m on the right board, so if this needs to be moved, that’s fine. Thanks for listening.

Think of this as a chance for you to find something better and more suited for you.

You have a monkey?!
Do you accept cheap false pity? Or does it have to be the quality type?
I will accept any pity that comes my way.
Any pity? Heh, heh…
<splats Rhaeven full in the face with a big, cream covered pity pie>
Now we can all join in in cleaning you up. Hold still, this may smart a little.
Ooooh, that sucks.
Want fudge? I’ll make you fudge.
pretends she isn’t looking for any lameass excuse to make fudge
No, really. It’ll help.
If Rhaeven doesn’t want fudge, the ungrateful loser, I’ll take it. I don’t even necessarily need pity fudge. I’ll take any kind of fudge whatsoever.
In the great words of someone who isn’t me:
I have two words for you, and both of them are ‘there’.

I currently have a special! Buy one, get one free pity!
Now, who was it that recently on these boards wanted to talk with a real person from Yahoo?
Sounds like people of your calibre are in demand Rhaeven
BellaDellaItalia, ANY excuse for fudge is a good one, and I happen to love pity fudge! j_sum1, if you remember who wanted to talk about Yahoo, send em my way, I’d be happy to open their eyes. Now, where’s that fudge? Me and my monkey are hungry!
I’m not real good with ‘pity’, but I am good with the ‘helping people get even’ part. Just gimmie a call, and your ex-boss will find out the myriad and creative uses of duct tape and jabenero peppers…
Oh, and I’ll take a piece of the fudge, too!
That does suck! I was in a similar situation once but I just left because it really wasn’t customer service. I didn’t have a job lined up but found one soon. A better one. Is that call center linked with SBC Yahoo?
ArrMatey!, I just may take you up on that, sounds interesting. I know exactly where I’d like to see the pepper go, too…
Violet, yes it is linked to SBC, they take care of the Yahoo premium services that are included with your SBC service, like games and briefcase, but not the actual Internat connection. I hear they’re changing their slogan from, “Do you Yahoo!?” to “Sorry, no refund”
That sucks, Rhaeven. At least you know the next job you get, whatever it may be, has to be better than Yahoo.
Ouch. That sucks!
Oh, and can I have some fudge?
This monkey you speak of, can it do anything else?
