I told myself I was done for the day

Posted by MoSi Posted on: 06/23/09

I told myself I was done for the day

AND THEN this guy comments on my wordpress blog.  I wrote this Customer Service thing in the heat of anger - I had a REALLY bad experience at Wally World that actually provoked me to not shop there anymore *GASP*.  It's true...I know what you're funny vintage Pictures, Images and Photosthinking 'somebody get the abulance this is gonna be bad', but don't worry there was no bloodshed I assure you. Only minor concussions...just kidding...sort of. 

So I write about how crappy customer service is these days and how consumers have just learned to look the other way. And just so ya know I'm IN that field so it's not as if I'm completely blind to the industry and just started spewing my opinion. I'm the Member Services Senior Coordinator at a reputable internet marketing firm in Columbia SC and I deal with MEAN MEAN MEAN people all day long WITH a smile and kind words - because it's my job and I like to turn an angry consumer into a happy consumer - it brings me joy because I'm a wierdo (holy run on sentance!). Anyway, moving on...so one of the biggest offenders in MY LIFE happened to be Walmart - so obviously that's what I wrote about.  SO THEN THIS JACKASS searches out my blog (cause he's not a follower of it) just to say this:

"Pretty interesting that you pick the retailer that is ONLY known for low prices, part-time employees and low pay, and try to heap customer service complaints on them. I’d say Wal-Mart is hardly the place to start your complaints."

I'm sorry, who the f*** are you and why should I care? Ok granted, it's probably some undervalued goody-two shoes Wally World employee who got tired of scrubbing the men's room floor with a toothbrush and took time out to defend Walmart's good name; but still isn't that what blogging is all about - OPINIONS? So because he was totally wrong and I wrote about 2 different grocery stores and also McDonalds (totally unrelated to the family dollar menu arguement) I decided to allow it to post and simply replied:

"Louis thank you for your input, I was referencing two grocery stores actually – please pay attention if you intend to read. My most recent problem was with the grocery store where I shopped – which just so happened to be Walmart. That is why blogs are for opinions…please keep up. Thanks :)"

Now I feel better AND just for spite I'm planning on posting my rant on PNN just to see what people I value actually have to say about it.  I mean really it was never meant to be taken that seriously anyway - had he been a good person and followed me he totally would have known that. Hmph!

End Thought: Because I forgot to write one in the heat of anger, it's a Post Script End Thought: "I love laughing lady bugs...because they rock." -MotherSingle
