Minz, you magnificent bastard! I hope all the girls were so good at listening to good advice. And sometimes I wish my girl weren't as stubborn as she is and listened to me when I tell her she needs to eat properly... Well done, very well done Minxy Minz! Im proud of you already. *spankhug*

Just got off the phone with someone looking to get machining work done....goes thru the whole BS of what he needs, wants a price on the phone. I tell him I can't do anything without a CAD file or seeing the parts first. Then he asks where we are and I give him the cross streets so he can map it out. He sounds confused when I tell him the cross streets so he names off a couple of towns where he thinks we are. I correct him and tell him the city we are in. Then he asks me what state we are in.
So I tell him Colorado and he says oh, I was looking for someone local and hangs up.
THE INTERNETS, HOW DOES IT WORK????????
I love it when you call a support line and you explain exactly where you are, what the problem is and what you need. Then after 10 minutes of that they say something like - OHHHH, you're in Alberta or Canada....I'll have to forward you on to drone number 2 because we only handle ___ calls.
and then you get to explain your thing all over again
The thing is, he most likely found us on Google or some other search engine. Then he would have had to click on our listing to find the phone number. Did he not think that the 303 area code for metro Denver seemed odd if he was looking for a local shop? Or did he not look farther down the Contact Us page and see that we are located in Colorado?
I just got off of the phone about 2 minutes ago talking to a coworker in Vancouver. I told her at least 3 times that I lived in Calgary, she even mentioned having relatives here.
Then as we're saying good bye she says - Just to be clear, you need this entered in the EBF ledger because you're in Edmonton?
DURRRRRRHHHHHHHHHH......PY.....DOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Is she hot?
My Van co-worker?
I have no idea, we haven't installed those new picture-phones yet
it's a media saturated world....too much info and people go through things at light speed thinking that they're effective at their jobs
I actually have to absorb a lot of info in different forms at my job, sometimes 16 things happen at once...that could have been handled much better if someone stopped to think for 60 seconds
Why can't I remember the one thing I was going to go to the store for?
I've got a list of things that I don't absolutely need right now, but there's one thing that I do absolutely need and I can't remember what the hell it is.
