Since I’m talking about office related issues this week, let’s take a minute discuss the idiots who feel that they do not need an appointment to come into a place of business. You see we tend to get a shit load of solicitors visit our office every day. Sometimes they’re selling things we actually need, most of the time they are selling piles of crap. Once in a while, like last week for instance, some sales douche will come in and actually have something our company might need such as discounted shipping services. This one guy in particular came in last week and had some pretty decent rates on freight shipping. At the time I was extremely busy and did not have a few minutes to spare to speak with him. I politely exchanged business cards and told him to call me this week to setup an appointment so that way we could meet and discuss what his company had to offer. What does this asshole do? He just shows up yesterday to meet with me like we were best fucking friends. Now to me that is totally disrespectful and makes me not want to do business with him or his company. Honestly it’s total bullshit and he’s not the first shit for brains that has done this. I know you sales people are trying to drum up business, as that is your job, but being pushy and just showing up whenever you want is NOT the way you’re going to gain me as a customer. Actually I probably won’t do any business with you assholes at all when you do shit like that. Stop just showing up to people’s offices because maybe, just maybe, we might actually be, um, you know, um WORKING! There’s a new device that’s been out for a hundred years or so and it’s called a damn telephone. Please figure out how to use one and make a Goddamn appointment next time.
