rallyboy Posted 29 June, 2022 Share Posted 29 June, 2022 When did it become acceptable for big companies to keep you on hold for over an hour? Imagine going to a shop and being told to stand outside until they decide you can come in? And the music, it sounded like Sooty on acid playing some sort of experimental jazz funk on his organ, looped over a hundred times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FFS some of us need a piss Ryanair's "priority" system worked well the other day. All the priority tickets asked to stand up and wait in a queue to check passports for 20 minutes then sent into the baking hot tunnel to stand for a further 20 minutes. After all that, the non-priority scum had to finally get off their arses in the cool, comfortable lounge and go and join them. And we all took off together. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call centre experience can impact their brand. Some like British Airways clearly don’t give a shit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighthouse Posted 1 July, 2022 Share Posted 1 July, 2022 Women who constantly post things like “throwback Thursday,” and, “wedding dress challenge,” on social media. It’s not a challenge, you’re just fishing for likes and compliments but you’re not as pretty as you used to be, so you’re using photos from ten years ago. Grow up.
