I think I've ranted on this before. But I wanna rant on it again. Maybe I just wanted in chat, I dunno. But I'm ranting.

I hate people that call into a catalog to order something...and they don't have their damned item numbers!

They sit there chewing on God knows what right into my ear, and say "Oh, this looks good. Oh, but this looks better. I can't decide what I want" while they're on the phone with me supposedly placing an order.

Of course these are the very same people who interrupt me five or six times while I'm trying to take their address and name and phone number information to ask inane questions that will get answered if they'd just let me get through the damned order.

I hate the ones especiallly who interrupt while I'm reading back the credit card after finally dragging an order out of the "Ums" and "Hmmms" and "Oh, that's nice"'s, with "How long will this take to get there?". Because, you know, it's not tradition for a catalog service to tell you how many days your order will take.

Grah! And these people are speech teachers mostly. I fear for the future of our children with idiots like this in charge.

I take it this is related to the nature of the product line for which they are calling...

Adam Zimmerman!

If you ever do this to some poor sap on the phone and I hear about it, I will sit you in a room and make you watch Superfriends without sleep for a week.

All you teachers are the same

At least they're not torturing some retailer with their idiocy.

Yep. They're speech teachers and speech language pathologists and they buy speech related products from the catalog.
