This Really Annoys Me Pet Peeve Thread

[gratus fermentatio]

Adult women who shave their pubic hair.

Men who like those kind of women.

If you're a full-grown man who wants to imagine that your sexual partner is pre-pubescent, then you've got psychosexual problems.

Ain't nothing wrong with trimming a wild, hairy bush to give it some style but trimming it down to the size of a dime is just a crime.

We just don't like hair stuck in our teeth/throat.
Regards, GF.

Another pet peeve, although minor.....

Women who think that they need to draw on fake moles when putting on their face. WFT is with that?

A buddy of mine and I used to argue if the this cute little bartender drew on fake pubes. We knew her eyebrows are definitely fake. One could only assume....

There was some funny dialog between Rob Reiner and little Lenny Dicrappio about 'the bush' in Wolf of Wall Street.

Hey, I just wanna be able to see where I'm going.

If that's Leonardo di Caprio, where's Kate Winslet? or is that the submarine force I'm thinking of....

It was midnight on the sea,
the band was playin' "Nearer My God To Thee"
Fare thee well Titanic,
fare thee well.

This is what happens when you stumble on a post, make what you think is a funny remark, only to find out that other people did that 34 pages ago....

Okay, a few weeks ago I gave up on Verizon land line phones. I spent a week trying to get them to fix my sudden lack of long distance service. Each of whom said that the problem would be fixed by the next day. Up to two frickin' hours spent on hold (at a time). I spoke to twenty different people (yes I counted). Some said it was because I hadn't made the transition to fiber, or it was a problem with billing. I'm glad to be rid of those a-holes, although now I have to deal with Verizon wireless and Cablevision. Not one of them seemed to be concerned that the company was losing a customer.

What's your pet peeve? I sense many in that explanation.

Yeah that would take a bit of digging. I guess their schisty attitude overall.

 

[Zuljin]

A customer? Pscht. No big loss. That's how it is.

Yeah, "GD....not another customer. "

Some young people seem to have this attitude as if customers are a nuisance.

Seems I heard that 10+ years ago. It's not because age. It's because there are billions of customers in a global market shopping at mega corps. Verizon, just for example, could lose every person in this thread, and not even feel it.

 

[BentBrewer]

I would also add that The Corporation probably treats the people in customer service poorly enough that they just don't care anymore. Day after day of similar customer complaints, coupled with day after day of being told you aren't being efficient enough, having your calls timed, etc would tend to grind the most helpful of people into an uncaring puddle of depression.

 

[MaxStout]

Those companies don't care when a customer defects, because top-level management doesn't see them leave. Those people are operating at the 30,000 foot level, and only see market share percentages and subscriber numbers expressed in millions. The people in the companies who do see a customer leave are the front line customer support people, who are often so burned out they don't give a shiat anyway.

The only time a customer defection gets the attention of top brass is when something so outrageous happens that the incident goes viral. And even then, the company's reaction is based more on damage control and remedying bad publicity than it is about the customer's plight.

I thought that. I would say it's true.

Damn kids

The only reason I say young, is that it might be their first job and the fact that it's not a career job.

It can be difficult to give it all to some of the first jobs young people get. I worked fast-food as a young person. Dealing with the general public sucks. Dealing with them as a teenager they think they can push around and generaly get over on really sucks.

If you're ever seen a French gate agent dog cuss a passenger in Charles De Gaulle airport, (at the top of his lungs, in front of a couple of dozen people) it kind of puts customer service in perspective.

Very entertaining if you are not the passenger.

That experience must have really scarred you.

That's part of being a teenager. Respect is earned, not just given to any pimply-faced kid with an entitlement attitude. You were on the bottom rung in the food chain when you worked there.

Cry me a river.

Know how I can tell you're part of the problem?

Common courtesy is as rare as common sense in some folks.

Last time I went through there, they accused me of being a terrorist because I was at the gate early and the first person in line. They made sure that I didn't get on the plane until everybody else had, giving me 50 questions and such.
