We call it Mwednesday as it’s not quite Wednesday yet it starts up with a lot of Monday energy. Plus it’s a New Year, so I guess that makes it sunny side up?
oy oy oy….. egg on the face in any form is not.good…… But you can already look forward to Friday Dave – and by the time you’ve greeted and gotten all the news & wishes exchanged, it’s already nearly Thursday 🙂 Courage!
It went like this:
“Boss, David is on line one. Would you like to take the call?”
“Hang up on him.”
Now that’s the kind of answer I used to get from techs that didn’t want to talk to customers. It was their way of using the “No “ word. The power word. They would eventually pick up, but I had to talk them into it. I hated that. I’m glad those guy are gone.
But now I’m dealing with a boss that is doing the same thing.
‘Hang up on him” he said.
I thought a moment. “Sir, I don’t hang up on people.”
I could see him bite his lip. He took the call. But he came back a little later.
“You better lose that attitude” he said.
“Hey, I’m not the one telling people to hang up on people”
Against the current, we beat on.
Hello 2019.
Thanks for letting me vent.
Happy New Year Mr K! I’m swimming with the turtles and jet skiing across the waters of Vanuatu and my only decision today is whether I need a nap or not? Oh sorry, that sounds a bit selfish doesn’t it? 😎🏄🏾
