Okay my summer plan was just sitting around until a job fell on my lap. As I’m too lazy to actually get off my ass and get one. This I figured, would result with no job, and lots of free time to bitch about having no money. Well of course I get a phone call which results in “Oh by the way, do you want a job for the summer? I can get you one.” Don’t you just love it when stuff like that happens?
Spiffy!
What’s the job?
I’ll be working for Parcel Force, in customer care or some department like that.
Well, good luck, I hope you enjoy it. My hat’s off to anyone willing to work in customer service. I know damn well, I’d get fed up, get snippy with a customer and get fired in about a day and a half.
Well I worked in Burger King for a while, and the customers there can get quite snippy when they’ve got 4 kids in tow and are STILL waiting for their burgers. There not as bad as the people who came in on a night though, now THERE were some wierd customers!

Tell us all about the weird customers, AngelicGemma.
My personal favorite was the guy who came in and asked for the 2 by 2 deal. When I looked at him blankly (I didn’t have a clue what he was talking about) another customer helpfully pointed out that it was McDonalds doing the deal. To this the guy replied “You mean I’m not in McDonalds? Where am I?” I guess he missed the big neon sign saying “BURGER KING” and all the BK logos around the restaurent
There was one guy who asked for my phone number, when I told him I had a boyfriend he asked for my boyfriends phone number to phone him and persuade him to let him take me out to dinner!
