What's the most whack customer description???

When I was working for Xerox we had a women's shelter in my area, pretty lucky for them, at that time I was the only female tech working for Xerox in the entire UK, I think I only went there once, I wonder what happened for all other service calls.

i also, once went to a private house to fix a copier for a gay guy, my problem wasn't that he was gay, but that he was a woman hater, he was really abusive, threw me out and told me that 'people like me' shouldn't have jobs! I refused to ever go there again

Such intolerance!

Home office calls are the worst - no witnesses!

I spent a couple years as something equivalent to a field manager. I'd have gone back to the account with you and told that idiot if he wants his machine fixed you're the only tech he's gonna get and he owes you an apology.

And then you'd fart on his vacuum to show him who's boss, right?

Unfortunately, the tech they sent in after me was an idiot, the copier was sitting on the floor, he should have refused to service it, but instead he kissed the customers arse and repaired it with no arguments despite how I had been spoken to.

in nearly 30 years of doing this job I have had very few negative comments regarding being female, this was the worst! The other one that comes to mind was a woman asking me if it was a dangerous job for a woman as toner is carcinogenic! She glared at me and stormed off when I asked if men can't get cancer then lol

BTW what do you say to a woman with 2 black eyes? Nothing, you've already told her twice...Don't hate me, probably should go in the horrible joke thread. Emujo

Definitely should not have laughed at that, but still did.

I did a couple of service calls at a women's shelter a while back. My first time there, they had me wait outside the door while they informed the women that there was going to be a man in the building. Thankfully the machine was tucked away in an office and I didn't have to endure any stares...or potentially worse

In a queer's house?!! Are you nuts - he'd probably consider it an aphrodisiac.

Could have offered him a Boston Pancake or a Cleveland Steamer. Or maybe a Dirty Sanchez.

Can't Tri-fold envelopes.

Why?

Why?

The postal service wouldn't know how to handle them!

It's only an open invitation if it whistles...
