I can't deal with people; I assume by default that the person I'm dealing with is suffering a major traumatic brain injury and work my way from there. Once I have determined that you can walk and breathe at the same time without collapsing from oxygen deprivation I'll move on to slightly more advanced things like stringing together coherent sentences and the ability to use your evolutionary advantage of having opposing thumbs.

Hah... - I'm very much a people's person. I like to entertain and I like to joke. I am initially a shy person, once I get to know you, I'm very sociable - at least, that's how I see myself.
 
It still surprises me that in this day and age you sometimes have people (and I'm not referring to elderly people, they're classified differently) that are dumbfounded by extremely simply technology...like ATMs. I hate using ATMs, because undoubtedly I get stuck behind someone that starts first looking for the card slot, then waits for something to happen, then starts looking for the numerical keypad. Then they realise that they cannot remember their 4 digit pin. 5 minutes later they find it in their ID on a piece of paper vaguely resembling a KFC receipt. Then they enter their PIN incorrectly, turn the piece of paper around. Enter the pin correctly. Dumbstruck again as they try and decipher the language on screen. Then they remember they are at an ATM and they probably want to withdraw money. Ask the closest person how they check their balance. Laugh at their own stupidity for not seeing the "Balance" button on screen. Laugh at themselves again because it's not a touch screen. Eject their card. Reinsert card. Enter pin incorrectly, enter pin correctly. Press a button, enter an amount. Take money. Forget card. Turn around, get card. Read receipt in front of ATM....
 
meh, do people really believe they are the only person in this world?

I am in charge of cellphones, as in, I do the ordering (new or stolen), porting and renewing of contracts. I used to get worked up, 90% of people, and I am not exaggerating, ppl seem to be so focused on cellphones...I got a few ppl that ask me several times a day where is there phones. Even after explaining to them the steps involved, esp when porting from service provider.

I get asked to "push" the service provider for the phone... One or two cases are urgent, the rest, not so much. If you leave your phone in a trolley and get it gets stolen...dont come trying to rush me for it. I really cant do that much. Plus, the Vodacom ppl I deal with are really ok.

I just give them the default "Yes, I have explained to them the situation. They are aware of how important it is."

Makes me think, if every single order is important, then none are....
