Rude People Suck!
I cannot stand rude people - they piss me off! I am a very nice person - you treat others how you want to be treated in return. So, I am always nice and understanding - but sometimes it’s hard to be pleasant to those who are…well, assholes! I encounter rude people all the time - as I am sure does everyone. I notice that with some rude people when I show that I’m not going to take their shit they change their tune. Example - yesterday I called my son’s doctor, because I spaced it and forgot his appointment (oops!) I know they hate it when you do that - and I figured they weren’t going to be praising over the phone - but I thought they would be nice… They lady answered and as soon as I said that I wasn’t going to make my appointment at 3:00 she became pissy. I asked if I could reschedule, she misunderstood me and said - rudely - “It’s almost three o’clock now!” I answered - just as rudely - “Yes, I know that! I want to reschedule!” Her tone changed and she was the nicest person for the rest of the conversation. I don’t want to have to be rude in order to get the respect that’s due to me right off - damnit! If I give you respect - I expect it back.

Always Treat people the same way you would want to be treated. But if they want to be Rude then you should be nice. If that don’t work Ask for their name then say “May I speak to a Manager Please” It is amazing how fast they will change from being rude to being nice. If you do have to speak to a manager be nice, explain the problem and tell them that you feel the other person you talked to was very Rude. If the manager does not help solve the problem or is rude. Wait one hour (Time for you to cool off) then call the corp. Office Talk to the highest person possible. Ask for the person that is in charge of Customer Service.
Be nice when you talk to them.
