Cunt is a great word. Has a very satisfying sound.

Devote a few minutes to thinking of a way we can mutually agree to police ourselves and stop acknowledging the obvious troll in the lineup thread. Nothing I'm doing is working.

I thought what you were doing was a great idea... It's just too bad that some people choose to continue to engage him.
Has he won the ban a member for a week though? Would that even make a difference?

Why thank you Snorlax. I would consider working out, but I'm tethered to a phone for the next 3 hours, and anticipate talking on said phone for about 20 minutes of that...

It's what I do. I'm a supervisor for one of the big three cellular companies in Canada. I talk to angry people. After 6:15 PST we only get calls from the west coast or Alberta. On top of that, since we only deal with the angry ones in my dept. we don't take as many calls as the rest of the employees. I will probably take 3 maximum for the rest of my shift.

Haha, most people think the job is shit, but it's actually really great. Most of the time people are only huffing and puffing to get a discount. We give them those, and they go on their merry way, most of the time apologising for being jerks in the first place.
It gives me tons of time online, which is both a blessing and a curse. I am going to look up this game, but it may not work on the work computer...

Know put that up as a threat. He hasn't had to use it yet. I'm fairly certain I'd win the first ban, though... which would actually be good for me.

Well that's cool. One of these days I will stop taking calls. Until than, I will give them things when they are angry.

I used to work in a call centre for Cingular/AT&T as a 'Resolutions Specialist'. It was fun making them more angry them calming them down, then pissing them off again and giving them like 100 free anytime minutes. By the end of it they just wanted to be off the phone, so they'd take anything.

Haha, I promise my approach is nicer than this... It all comes down to treat people as you would like to be treated. If you come at me with an attitude, don't expect me to give you the moon. Explain things calmly and with some form of logic, and chances are you will get what you are looking for. (within reason)

yeah, that's what i did with the really angry ones. Killed with kindness. But for the people huffing and puffing for a handout I just fucked them around.
