    Racism sucks!
    I got a call today that really took the cake.
    I had been reading some of the stories lately that have been involving racist customers and I thought "Is it really that prevelent?"
    Aparently it is.

    Me = Call center gal for the Florida Pre-paid College Fund
    RW = Racist Woman

    PHONE RINGY!
    Me: "Good afternoon! Thank you for calling customer service. My name is (me) can I have your zip code please?"
    RW: "Yah hi I was calling to get some answers about the plan my zip is (zip)"
    Me: "Okay, what can I help you with?"
    RW: "The last girl I talked to sounded really stupid, I mean, ghetto, you know? She was black and she didn't know what she was talking about."
    Me: (tearing my hair out) "Mmkay what can I help you with."
    RW: (Going into a spiel about prices, plans, and interest) "So what do you reccomend?"
    Me: "I cannot reccomend a plan, but I can tell you exactly how much it will cost for which tuition plan you choose, plus any additional plans such as the 'local fee' plan or the 'dormatory plan'."
    RW: "Oh, well, I'll try calling later!" *click*
    Me: .........................

    Because my friends-list on [info]battyvitae can contain some very VERY not-work-safe images and text, I've created this LJ username so I can look at some LJ communities and such to pass the time.

    Yay for call-center jobs where I get maybe 30 calls a day. The rest of the time I spend browsing the internet and finding all of the blocked website addresses. The weirdest things are blocked too.. theonion.com for example. Huh?
