PK:
A little off topic, but you've demonstrated a curious aspect of business that I happened to encounter today as well.
I'm talking about instances of the generic:
"I would like X please"
"I'm sorry sir, we cant give you X"
"I want to speak to your boss/I'll post nasty things about you on social media/(or the ever reliable) I will make you personally and publicly accountable for the outcome of this conversation."
"I'm very sorry about that sir, of course we can give you X"
I mean, all it does is train us to behave badly.....
Anecdote from my day:
"Hello, I'd like to send this money to one of our suppliers in US Dollars please"
"Certainly sir, we can offer you this exchange rate."
"I don't like that exchange rate. Give me a better one."
<phone call>
"Here you go sir, I can now offer you *this* rate. Congratulations,you saved $500"
I s%^t you not, that was the entire conversation, verbatim.....

I run my business with honesty and integrity, perhaps that explains why I don't do so well.
p.s. I could just be crap at what I do on the other hand. :lol:

Well DHL FAILED to meet their 10 am delivery. A phone call got a 'definitely be there by 11.00' - another target that they MISSED. Then 20 past 11 chap turns up with a DAMAGED box :bang:
Turns out he yesterday went to a farm in another road (in another post code as well) and ASSUMED he was in the right place - damn it all there are bally great signs out side saying who we are :bang:
Looks like the box has been impacted by a bar or something, and I can feel metallic bits inside. Won't investigate until I've time to do it in an unhurried way, as (due to DHL) I'm now very late for my appointment in Canterbury and need to leave.

:palm: The total gits..... Well you now have somewhere to post the bollocks.
