JoBear Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 and i had a sad claim where a german shepherd called ranee was hit by a car and died. i started tearing up with the customer it was so sad. i made a concerted effort to refer to ranee in the present tense and tried to get her to talk about what she was like before the accident as it sounded absolutely horrific.

_Ed_ Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 well the work system was down this morning for a couple hours so i sat in my manager's office and he told me what he did and didn't like about me - in a nice way of course! Of course. You can't have given him much to put on the latter list, surely! I had a good fortnightly catch-up with my boss today. Usually they just go along the lines of, "Well, I've got nothing...," but today was a decent chat, which was nice. my car was ready today to pick up but i didn't have the courtesy car at work so can't get it till the morning and then have to park it in town. which i don't want to do as it should be in perfect condition now! Ooh, dilemma. and i had a sad claim where a german shepherd called ranee was hit by a car and died. i started tearing up with the customer it was so sad. i made a concerted effort to refer to ranee in the present tense and tried to get her to talk about what she was like before the accident as it sounded absolutely horrific. That's really sad. But so good of you to put in so much effort - it's a hard enough ordeal for the customer as it is, but talking to someone who sounded completely unmoved and cold about it would make it even worse, I'd imagine.

_Ed_ Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Holy shit, it's Derby day tomorrow. Don't you love it when something you've been really excited about for ages kind of sneaks up on you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Jb hbi. The place with the yellow sign black writing and i watched it. Oh cool, I've never seen it there before. So apparently my cricket tickets for next week were delivered somewhere in Devonport and signed for by Melanie. Super. So what are they doing about it? Signed deliveries are just crap sometimes aren't they? Some dvd's I ordered came today but no one was home so I'll have to wait til tomorrow but I hope they don't come really early as some are too lazy to open the gate So at work there's this funny-shaped mirror just above the urinal that makes everything look huge. It's an ad campaign for Hung. Pretty clever, really. Think I mentioned it to you Jo. But I just went in there and saw some alarming stains on it. I really desperately hope it was toothpaste, but who brushes their teeth at a urinal? and i had a sad claim where a german shepherd called ranee was hit by a car and died. i started tearing up with the customer it was so sad. i made a concerted effort to refer to ranee in the present tense and tried to get her to talk about what she was like before the accident as it sounded absolutely horrific. I can imagine those cases would be very hard to deal with. Holy shit, it's Derby day tomorrow. Don't you love it when something you've been really excited about for ages kind of sneaks up on you? Nice! I know what you mean. Only two days til I see Alice in Wonderland and the last I remember was thinking why are they advertising so much when it's still a couple months away.

_Ed_ Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 That's a shame. So what are they doing about it? Signed deliveries are just crap sometimes aren't they? Yeah, shocking. I called them today and they cancelled those tickets and issued me some new ones that I went and picked up. Problem solved! Unless I find this "Melanie" sitting in my seats when I get there... Nice! I know what you mean. Only two days til I see Alice in Wonderland and the last I remember was thinking why are they advertising so much when it's still a couple months away. That's exciting! We've been hearing about it for so long, felt like it would never come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh that's good. Do they scan the tickets when going in? That should mean "Melanie" won't be let in. Otherwise get there early to get in the seats before them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoBear Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Speights is a guilty pleasure. it was also warm! but it was funny to hear a different perspective on our assessors as we only really deal with them on the phone and in writing and they deal with them in person. had a good laugh.

JoBear Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 my car does look good. cost $645 for my work though! because it's a coupe the whole panel had to come off which meant taking off the tail lamp, bumper and the rear 1/4 window. think that was most of the cost! i got a great deal though, they fixed my electric window and only charged me for the part. no labour! it would have taken a good hour too.
