I'm doing customer service today.

Someone write up a pool and sell blocks.
Inside info: I usually tear my hair out after about 4 hours.

I cleaned out the junk and I only have 136 emails to go.

On a good note, I just realized the USDA bought a spot in our banner rotation. I thought that was cool.

Website in question.

Tumblers actually tumble when they fly.
Rollers go way up in the air, put the brakes on, and do flops while they are falling. They pull out right before they hit the ground most of the time. Sometimes they just literally go "splat".
Parlor rollers do the rolling thing on the ground.
I have no idea why they do that stuff, but it's cool.

My computer thing is really slow, and I think it's broken. I clicked on a bunch of window thingies yesterday that said I might have a virus or something, and it did a bunch of stuff, but now it's broken. I went to another site that said it would clean up my system and I clicked a bunch of "ok's", and it got even worse. I think my memory is full...

This is what drives me insane...

From: Westiexxx@aol.com
Subject: Rong address

Body: MY ADDRESS IS RONG

That's the whole message.
This person doesn't exist in our database because he's likely registered with one of his other email addresses. probably his BoBoNoNo_xoxorz_XoxoX_hot_chick@aol.com address.
I believe he'd like us to change his address in his user information, or he just wants me to know that something is strangely awry with his address.
My guess? Spelling.
I get 20 of these a day from aolers, and each one kills a little part of me.

Haha...that is lame.

The sad part if I made that bit up without ever working customer support..

I get emailed at least 10 times a week from wonderful, helpful people that insist I have porno and fake rolex popups at our website.
9 out of 10 of them are aolers.
I usually get my ass reamed out by those people before the email thread is done. It's almost a given.
If you can imagine it, they've emailed me about it.

I'm actually starting a new job next Monday that involves some customer support, but the company only deals with POS systems they sell and install to pharmacies, so I shouldn't have to deal with that aol'er crap. The cool part about the job is after a few months, I'll be flying out around the country doing installs and training.

Beats the old job I had at a hotel makin...well..crap.

Then I'd risk the chance of having to deal with someone who works at aol.

Betcha I have a canned answer for it.
Don't send it from an aol address or it's likely to get trashed based on the subject line.
