Yes. I was in my late teens. I got a job at Lechmere Sales, in customer service.
Whoever had my job before me had a huge stack of slips for repairs that he or she had not handled, and I was doing my regular job handling customers and trying to work my way through the old repair slips at the same time. One day, an extremely irate customer called to complain that his repair was taking MONTHS and he just wasn't going to stand for it any more. His was one of the very old repair slips I was trying to complete.
The department MANAGER decided to get involved...(a giant a-hole)...and he decided to handle it by coming downstairs and ROARING at me at the top of his lungs, blaming me for not handling the repair in a timely fashion, while I was still on the phone with the customer.
I said to the customer in a very sweet, calm voice, "Mr. Such and So is VERY upset that your repair has not been completed. In fact, he is SO upset...that he is going to handle it HIMSELF!" 🤣🤣🤣 (I could hear the customer stifling his laughter on the other end of the line). (My department supervisor was smirking and thought it was very funny!) And then the giant a-hole ROARED at me to GO HOME! 🤣🤣🤣
I was more than happy to do so. The department supervisor called me several times over the next week, begging me to return, but I refused. EFF that! 😁
