Comment on Ah, customer service

Had this experience yesterday. I called in to get an update and the first guy was a dry jerkoff who would cut me off in a condescending tone. The second guy said virtually the same thing as the first guy, but let me speak a bit and ask a couple of questions, and that made everything 100x better.

In their defence its also a lot easier for me because I’m not in a call center, my calls arent recorded and I dont have scripts or churn times to adhere to. Customer service in a call center must absolutely be someones definition of hell.
I’ve point blank said to customers things like “Look, I appreciate that you’re upset. Please believe me that I am upset too, because I have to go ask that idiot why he did what he did, document the conversation and I guarantee you the answer wont be a clever one” and “This is definitely our fuckup, not that I should use language like that with customers but ‘mistake’ just doesnt cut it”
