Friggan work is making me take it and I hate it.....every Tuesday morning for 12 weeks.:wall: Only week 4 and I can't take anymore of this "Van down by the River" crap. WTF, I'm in IT, what the hell does it matter that I can't get Touchy Feely with a Customer, I'm supposed to be Rude, Crude and Demeaning....that what IT does.

8 weeks and counting :wall:

sorry for your pain:angel:

My father took that course a gazillion years ago now. He's been gone four eyars and was 78. I think he took the course in his twenties.

Sorry that IT steorotype went away after the Y2K crash.

You're company must be doing well, that's usually when you see all the bs better yourself classes come along.

You can get lots of brownie points (and since in your in the weight loss contest, I want you to have lots of brownies :devil2: )

say "all questions have value" the HR bobbleheads luv that stuff.

Oh well, at least it breaks up the daily grind, even though you're now further behind because of this class and that added stress can't help customer relations ..... I got it, sign up for a time management class. :laugha:

I'm not getting a warm, fuzzy feeling about you right now. :laugha:

see how perfect the mold fits me as an IT guy . Im rude , crude and I love it .

that's it, make the users tremble to approach.
Then you job goes halfway around the world.

I don't want them to tremble.....I just want them to think.

Just make sure there not trying to tell you something in a nice way.:angel:

You mean that snot a coffee cup holder on the side of my laptop?

Or the I can't see the screen, it's still dark. Did you open the laptop? Uh, no.
Or I can't get to the internet. I can boot my machine but the battery is almost empty. We have a power failure, I'm calling you on my cellphone

That kinda stuff?

Thats part of it.....or how about when they ask a question and I walk over to there desk and look it up in the help screen....that they don't want to use

Just think how much better you can get along with your wife after the training is complete....

Uh oh. the old F1 issue.
Wish you could hit that remotely.

Take their machine away for a week while you 'fix' it.

Consider it part of your moderator training:laugha:

I have no idea what you guys are talking about

Dale Carnegie: How to Win Friends and Influence People.

Wise-ass :bshake:

Oh,

so what the heck do you need to go to that for? :D

I took that 20 years ago and hated it while I took it, used some of the lessons afterwards, enjoyed it and now wish a company would pay for me to go again....

Looks great on the resume too...

:bs:

:bl:

See, prior to my eye opening experience from Dale Carnegie training, I probably would have told you to effing blankety blank, however, the kinder, more refined version of me coridally invites you to &&#^@ yourself :bshake::tooth:

I read that book,,,,, lol,,, $ucked,,,

it's ok TDF, just tell them to restart and it will be okay.
