I'm not sure "Don't you dare correct me" comes under standing up for yourself Gary. The post that got you the ban had reports from at least 5 people which to me warranted the response we gave.

Certainly agree about Jon, he's a smarmy shit, obviously he's never been in a fight before going by the way he speaks to people at times..
Don't be a keyboard warrior Gary.

We live in hope.
I'm not being a keyboard warrior, this is how I even deal with customers at my place of employment and it's never done me any harm. I'm just telling it as it is like I have always done and if people get upset or annoyed then too bad, I'm not on TVF to please anyone...

Well actually no, I never even got a PM asking me to remove the post which I would have clearly of done if it was asked of me but no instead a straight ban.

You make comments suggesting you'd like to get in to a fight with your customers??!?

Either you're lying or your employer doesn't deserve to have any customers.

I'm sorry to tell you that I'm not lying, they get arsey with us, they get it right back, its no great loss to the company that I work for if they decide to leave and go elsewhere. My employer makes enough yearly profit to lose a few customers now and then.

Yeah. So, Gary, what's the deal here? Do you actually work? Only no company would ever train you to be of that belief, and having a comment like that to your name would certainly get you disciplined.

Sounds to me like you're chatting shit.

You're so off course its unreal, and if we get customers that go to far we cancel them without notice and bill them for the remainder of their outstanding contract. If they fail to pay we default their credit file. The company I work for doesn't take to lightly to customers verbally abusing and threatening staff. So we deal it as we see fit.

For Gary's sake I hope it doesn't, because he won't be getting a job anywhere else with that sort of attitude.
