Re: Wot tings ave yous learrnt tooday?
As life is a glorious journey filled with wondrous experience we constantly learn new things (wretch).... today I've discovered
1) The Yanks call Tunisia 'Tune - eesh - year'
2) My 1 year old cat, Outboard, can lay a turd the size of King Kong's finger
3) A massive brown stripey spider found in the car can evade an industrial hoover
What about yous?

That houses advertised as a four bedroom 'spacious' house with a room for a pony actually consist of two bedrooms (where you can just about fit in a queen bed), another bedroom in which you can squeeze in a single bed and the last one is actually a storeroom being passed off as the 4th bedroom

Now on to what you said...
I worked at bunnings for a time, or should I say I did time at bunnings... When customers vented it was by far the best thing they could have done for us that worked there. Nothing could be better than having someone blow a gasket, throw their arms up and storm off effin and bliming... It simply meant that they became someone else's problem, or better yet just f@@@ed off to some other store, and I could go back to mindless tedium. Do you honestly think we actually care that you are unhappy with the service or product?
If you really want to punish the retail retards make them do everything possible that you can think of i.e. make them walk around the store with you and explain everything three times... Take up as much time as possible... And then say, I think I'll shop around and promptly leave without thanking them. Basically you've completely f$$$ed their day if you can string it out long enough because retail retards are made to work hard for the paltry seeds they're paid. Managers are hired because they excel at slave driving and being assholes - not because they now how to me good managers.
Or better yet, as the poor retard sales clerk is only doing what they're allowed to do by the managers under threat of losing their jobs, go and find a manager and punish them by dragging them around and f***ing up their days work... You see the sales clerk isn't given any knowledge or training (what bunnings said in induction compared to what happened when we were turned loose on the floor is an absolute joke) to do even a remotely competent job and the managers don't give a shit. Their attitude is head down don't want to know... When I go to bunnings (or anywhere else now) and have a problem I find the first red shirt and say you don't get paid enough to put up with the shit i'm gonna start flinging so go find a manager (really). The smile that comes across their face is priceless when I say that. Cause their thinking "Yes! it pay back time and I have a front row seat"

Reminded me of the service I got yesterday. I phoned origin energy wanting an quote on a solar power unit. These things are round $5000 - $10000 so you'd think they would take it somewhat seriously - right. Well the recorded message said they were too busy and I had to leave a message with my contact details and they would get back to me - promise. So my message was "Why don't you hire more f***ing staff to answer the phones you idiot" Do you think it made it to the manager - probably not...
