YAY my new iPod is here!! *o*
when naming my new iPod, i was like seriously damn tempted to name it Setsuna or Madara (i think these 2 names are like super cool) instead of what i used to name my iPod :P
but somehow i'm having this internal struggle about how its cool to name my iPod something other than "XXX's iPod", but how its as dumb to give my iPod a name just like its dumb to name soft toys X_X"
oh well............
and because its been ages since i've done this, heres my all-new customer rant of the year XD
heh but i'll probably sound alot kinder than before, since i'm like too used to the stupid stunts they try pulling off by now XD
not gonna reveal the name of my workplace though nearly everyone who knows me already know...
-- people need to realise we dont sell EVERYTHING. i cant even understand where they got that idea from! i'm not exagerrating when i say EVERYTHING, considering the things i've had customers asking me for: karaoke microphone, dumbbell, bicycle, hammer, badminton racket, number stickers (those people paste on their doors), etc. like does nobody realise we're actually meant to be a BOOKSTORE? just because we sell a huge variety of stuff doesnt mean we sell every goddamn thing you can possibly need in your household.
-- people need to stop being so self-deceiving. accept the cold hard truth when we tell them the product they are in desperate need of is OUT-OF-STOCK. making us repeat our answer several times isnt gonna change anything. and people who ask if we dont still have stock of the product in our "warehouse" (which is actually an office) obviously need to go look up the meaning of the phrase OUT-OF-STOCK. same goes to those who force us to hunt for the product for them, when they've already looked in the exact same place before approaching us. in all honesty, we really do wish that we can give customers whatever they wanna buy so we wont have to deal with their shitty tantrums.
-- people need to stop thinking that we keep ALL our stocks in the "warehouse". in the 1st place, we only have 1 warehouse in SG, and thats not to be found in any of our store outets. the mysterious doors seen in every outlet leads to the outlet's office, NOT warehouse. its not even a warehouse to start with, so we obviously wont have much stocks in there. even if we do keep stocks inside, anyone with decent IQ should be able to tell that the place's not even big enough to store 10% of our stocks. just because someone found this last piece of a product lying around doesnt mean theres gotta be hundreds of its clones hibernating in our office.
not that i'm a genius or what, but the questions some people ask are just soooo freaking dumb, i feel ridiculous answering them. and because its just hard to believe such dumb people do exist, i'm always suspecting i heard wrongly or mis-interpreted the question whenever i hear those crap.
one good example of a stupid question:
"Which pencil sharpener is better?" -- and sadly, all the sharpeners in question are the SAME. like i can accept it if you're asking me to choose between manual sharpeners & automated ones, but whats this question supposed to be asking when its all manual sharpeners you're referring to?
yea pay me 10% service charge & i'll help you analyse which one has a shape that enables a better grip.
