My Credit Card Number is ....

I work at a call center for a pretty popular clothing company. This is usually a good thing, but some nights it can be horrible. I know a lot of people complain about poor customer service and how awful call center reps are. In "real life" I'm a very nice person, and at my job, if I am mean or rude to a customer, they'll find out and I'll get fired. This being said, I'm probably the nicest, kindest person you could speak to in the call center, so it really makes no sense for someone to be rude or mean to me. This brings us to the first (of probably many) Call-Center Rules To Live By:

NEVER be an asshole to someone you've just given your credit card number to.

Seriously, if I were a different person (which most people are), I could do some pretty extensive harm. So... maybe you should be nice to me. After all, you're about to give me your card number, expiration date, billing address and security code. I'm just sayin'.

My "It"?




About a year ago I was on my way to an art show. On the way, we stumbled across this little bit of stupidity. One of my biggest pet peeves is incorrect grammar and spelling. Naturally, I had to document this horrendous offense. Using "your" instead of "you're" and vice-versa is one of the biggest English mistakes known to man. If you're wrong with your word choice you change the sentence to mean something completely different.

Why would you want to tag someone's it?

Beginning Stages...

This blog is in the beginning stages right now. The whole point of this blog is to showcase all the things that I believe are really annoying, or even just things that people do wrong. I plan to incorporate some pictures and videos so it won't be completely boring and text based, etc. If I keep talking about all the things I'm going to do, this is going to get very boring very fast. So... Keep posted - the first post will be soon!
