In celebration of me giving my two weeks at my awful customer service job while having no concrete prospects, I have decided to post a blurb I wrote a while back about a particularly stupid customer interaction I had when I first started....
_________________________________________________________
I work as a customer service representative for (durblahdur).com (durblahdur).com is a flash site that sells women's clothing and other bullshit . Below is an email I received today...
“I am a 38 year old white male your product line does not interest me but I thought you should know that when you ad comes up on the side of my screne it looks like the girl has one leg and that is a bit disturbing at a quick slice. This is putting a negative association with your name. good day.”
This is how I actually responded...
“Hi Corey,
Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts with us. As much as we appreciate your concern with our ad we find it odd and a bit offensive that you consider limbless people “disturbing”. Why would it be wrong or disturbing to have a one legged model? How do you know that the model in question isn’t in fact legless?
Clearly you are not in the know when it comes to today’s fashion because one legged models are currently all of the rage. Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger, Christian Audigier, they all use one legged models. Some of them only have the left leg, some of them only have the right, it doesn’t matter, they are a hot commodity regardless.
I was actually a model at one point. I unfortunately had to fall back on my costumer service degree because I was having a hard time finding work. Guess why? I got both legs.
Good day”
