Please, we don't want to share your so called "wand" - who knows where it has been.

It's been in the usual places, until I start drinking . . .

So I've worked for T-Mobile for 5 years. and some calls stick out in my mind more than ANY others. case in point:

Me: Thanks for calling, blah.

Her: OH MY GOSH! MY PHONE WON'T MAKE CALLS! YOU NEED TO CREDIT ME AT LEAST 3 MONTHS BECAUSE MY PHONE WON'T WORK! icon_surprised.gif

Me: Oh wow! I'm really sorry, let's get your account pulled up. Now i see that you're calling me on that phone right now, correct?

Her: NO! I just told you it won't work! It won't even turn on! icon_mad.gif

Me: (checking my caller ID again, and saying, yup, it's the same number) so I ask her to take the back of the phone and the battery off.

Her: I can't, it will hang up the call.

Me: (yes, i muted for a moment as a sign of respect for the brain cells I had just lost icon_wacko.gif ) ok, so we are on the phone. What's happening, are you getting an error message when you try to make a call?

Her: LOOK! I am in the middle of a Mexican riot! I need to call the police, and I can't! My phone hasn't worked in months!

Me: Ok, have you been using another phone, or are you right now? I see a lot of usage, so we just need to figure out where the problem is. If you need to go to call the police, I can just note this, and you can call back later.

Her: ARE YOU DISCRIMINATING AGAINST ME? I AM A BLACK WOMAN IN A MEXICAN RIOT!

Me: (ummmmm. icon_huh.gif .) No, ma'am, I want to help, but if you are in an emergency situation, I don't want to take your time.

Her: Listen her, you f*****g b***h, I could be killed any moment, I want to call my family!

Me: Ok. Tell me what the issue is, I want to help! Do you have the phone with you (giving up on logic at this point)

Her: I AM ON THE F*****G PHONE! ARE YOU HAPPY? JUST CREDIT MY ACCOUNT!

Me: (being a mite bit naughty) Ma'am, crediting the account is not going to help you in an emergency situation, we need to get your phone working. icon_angel.gif

Her: Is it because I'm a woman? is that why you won't credit me?

Me: Ma'am, I am a female, and a credit is not going to fix your service

*****At this point, she screams and curses for about 5 minutes straight, my sup has plugged in with me and we watch our IQ points dwindling***************

Her: I was just in a fatal car accident. I need to call my family.

Me: (WTF?) I'm sorry? I really think you need to call 911.

Her: I NEED A CREDIT ON MY ACCOUNT, AND YOU NEED TO MAKE ME ABLE TO MAKE PHONE CALLS!

***Another 5 minute cursing session****

Her: Are you going to help me or not?

Me: Ma'am, it sounds like you have a lot going on right now. (I review the ntoes in her account, and she had called at least 7 times in the last year, saying she was in a fatal car accident, and needed a credit.) By definition, if you have had a fatal car accident, then you are dead. And our phones may be good, but they're not going to make a call from beyond the grave.

Her: Click.

Haha. I got a call the other day and the customer asked if I liked frozen fish sticks. I said, "Can I help you with something?" and he said "Yes. You can preheat my oven." And he hung up.

I want to slap some people across the face I swear.
