Then from day one, *KNOWINGLY* going to work to just jack the customer.
And jack they do. Actually it is quite sad.:-( Who said anything about lying to customers? Lying is reprehensible Case in point Leonard. This was at least two years or more ago. But I watched an employee sell a customer a cordless phone. The lady asked the employee "can I be heard talking on this phone by people with *police* scanners?" I saw the brand of phone and waited to see what he'd say, and without a second pause he told her "oh no, not on this one." I looked at him and rolled my eyes and kind of shook my head and he looked at me real hard, hard enough that the lady noticed and turned around towards me and said "is there a problem?" I replied "well, if you want your neighbors and people in your neighborhood to know everything about you and you don't care, then no. There isn't anything wrong." The shack employee quickly reached for another phone (more expensive) that had 'voice encryption' on it and told her that this would' garble up your voice' and no one would understand you and I started laughing. He said "well, I'm not lying".......and I said "no you're not, but you're not telling her either for about seven to eight dollars worth of parts here that the simple encryption can be broken very easy and you can be heard *crystal clear.* His reply was and he stuttered...."well I'm sure people have better things to do with their time than listen to peoples conversations." I explained to him and her my hobby of electronics and explained the simplicity of building a box and even told them about my Ramsey speech scrambler, of course I added that "yes it gets old and it's not as exciting as it once was (and it's not), but mam if you left with that phone I PROMISE you I could sit down the street from your house and every time YOU pick up the phone, *I* pick up the phone also. Some other things were said, but to make a long story short I told her the ONLY way (other than the gubiment listening) is to get a phone with 'Spread Spectrum Technology'......but she didn't want to pay that much for a phone she said. So I advised her not to say anything she wouldn't be ashamed of telling her neighborhood over her other cordless, but for important things, just stick to the ole' landline phone. Here's the sad part, the employee was MAD at me for telling her the TRUTH while he was LYING to her. It goes on everyday in rat shacks stores alllllllll over the country, and that's sad IMO. Who said anything about lying you say? ;-) |
