Lemme tell ya about some bad phone calls....

First, I work in a support desk for wireless internt, and troubleshoot customers calls for people trying to get online. If any of you have been to Panera, Starbucks, or anything like that, then you know how this works.


me: "iDock internet support"
cust "Yea, I cant you get you guys off my computer! You infected my computer"
me "Im sorry, but please explain?"
cust "EVerytime I open internet explorer, i get you page. I have such-and-such internet at home, and I want to use that. Now get your page off my system"
me "You are in such-and-such marina, correct??"
cust "yea, but I want this off my system now!"

This guy didnt seem to grasp the concept that he had to use our service to get online, or else he just wasnt getting online at all. Eventually, it came down to turning off this guys wireless card to not see our page anymore.


Ive also been threatened to be killed, shot, stabbed, get the living crap kicked outta me, and so on. Its rather funny actually, since I make up places where my office really is.

How is this a repost if she is saying that was a phone call she got this morning?

When I worked in the Bailbond office in Trenton, we'd get calls all the time for a cab because our number was very close to theirs. There were a lot of poor people who never got their cabs...

I work for a vending company and we get calls from people trying to place orders with LL Bean and something called Recorded Books. Their 800 #'s are close to ours.

I work at a bank and you would be amazed at how dumb people are even while dealing with thier own money, its shocking.

I used to work in a service department at a car dealership. I had an elderly woman call me because she wanted us to come pick up and tow her car to us. She rear ended someone and thought that her Bumper to Bumper warrenty would cover that

You would be surprised how stupid people are when it comes to their own health.

Waiting till 5:01 on a Friday to call and report their medication is giving them a allergic reaction when they have been taking the medic ation for a week and expecting for us to call our attendings for them.

Or my personal fav. the clinic patients which come into the ER screaming that they want to see their relative who is in the MEDICAL DEPARTMENT.

Ma'am, which medical department?

"I don know, da medical one."

Are you serious?

"Do I look for real Tu Jo?"

Gotta love the gang bangers from Allentown who get carted to LVH Trauma and wont snitch on who stabbed them.

"I was trying to kill myself man."

You were trying to kill yourself by stabbing yourself?

"Yea, whats it to you?"

You have two puncture wounds in your arm pits. Your lungs were filling up with blood. You literally were about to drown in your own blood in the middle of 7th street. You were going to end it via a hemathorax?

"Yep."

Its funny because once they are brought to the hospital for an attempted suicide its tacked to there records and they are reported to crisis intervention, childern and youth services, and social services. Jokes on them.
