work stories...

I usually don't post too much about work, but this customer today just made me laugh, for the sheer.. ah...well, let's be kind and not say what was going through my mind. ^_^

For my job, I collect on payday loans, if people want extensions on the loans, etc. You can do it online, or on the phone. Well, I call this lady because her loan has returned. Normal, everyday thing. Well, she says she filled out an extension online. Has the receipt and everything. I tell her to fax it to me. I get the fax and I immediately see what's wrong. She didn't sign it. Okay.. no big deal, happens all the time. Sometimes they forget to sign it, sometimes they print off the thing before they sign it... etc. Well, I call her back and tell her what I got. Her response.. "I have to sign it? I didn't know I had to do that. I thought I just printed off the paper..." I was trying to hard not to laugh... yes, it may seem very simple to me, but when you see a "Borrower's Signature" box, and a "SUMBIT" button, doesn't that just say... "Sign here and click submit?" *giggles* So yeah, my priceless customer... how else are you going to get the extension?

Eep, I don't have your e-mail address on-hand. I wanted to tell you I got your cards, though! And since I got fewer cards than I was initially expecting, that means yours were reused several times. So you will be getting quite a few cards. Ah, I think your name was the one that had the most creative spellings though. Even though I wrote the names on the blackboard, they still insisted on some ... interesting ... spellings for my friends' names. Anyway, Sano-sensei will be mailing them out when she gets a chance.

Thanks so much! I'm leaving tonight, so Happy Holidays!

*giggle* Oh, that's going to be great! I can't wait to get the cards from your students. *big wide grin* It's going to be so much fun.... *imagines the various spellings for "Trisha." Considering my name roughly in katakana is "to-ri-sha" ^_^
