O/T Irrational Irritations away from Sport

Quote: Roddy B "People who are unwilling to learn anything - I hate them. People who go to Tesco, buy a mobile and ask the person at the desk to set it up for them because they're no good with technology. Get good at it you thick idiots, half of it is common sense but you con yourselves into believing you can't put a battery and/or sim card in a phone. Not only that, but people will say things like "Is my credit on it?" and "Are my numbers still saved?", and if the person says no, or the person says "YOU have to save your old numbers to your sim and then put it in the phone", they then fret in absolute disgust as though it's expected that everything is perfect.'"

Customer service in grocery and non food retail outlets in this country. I spent £500 on tiles last week the bloke in the shop said about 5 words to me never got out of his chair and barely looked up from his PC screen.
when I picked them up two days later he wheeled the palet to the back door said "thats as far as i can go" dropped the pallet and went back in the Warehouse...!!!!

I spent £5 quid in Macdonalds got Please's and thank you's galore got told to enjoy my meal I swear they'd have blown me off I had bought an Apple pie...!!

it seems to me the more you spend the more contempt you are treated with...I wanted to spend £2000 on a fitted bedroom and I can honestly the say the bloke that came to measure up was THE biggest cock known to man he ended up wasting his afternoon and losing a stone wall guaranteed Sale by trying to be the big I am Salesman..

I quote the above post because I once bought a pay as you go phone for £120 quid in tesco and I must have been Wearing my Harry Potter Invisible cloak ...I was hardly acknowledge from start to finish and felt like I was inconveniencing the staff from the serious business of them staring blankly at the ceiling.
