I just got an automated telemarketing call (the kind where the prerecorded voice starts as soon as you answer) in what I believe was Mandarin Chinese.

Just got a 2 page email from a customer who has just experienced her "worst customer service experience ever". After I read the email I was seriously puzzled as my employees are amazing at customer service and the employee she complained about is a god damn angel who never get complaints. After talking to all my employees I find out that her "injustice" was a complete fabrication and she was one of those lets pick a fight that doesn't exist type people.

I'm trying hard to write a email in response that assures her that it was pure miscommunication and no foul play was present, but my sneaky subconscious keeps inserting sarcastic responses.

**** I hate customers sometimes. Basically a 55 year old woman with nothing better to do than to start some ****. I know the customer is always right(hahahahahaha) but I'm finding it hard to try to make her feel better about the experience. I don't even want to retain her business.

She wrote an email to my franchise to "get me in trouble", little does she realize that it doesn't do jack **** to me when you do that...oh well, can't make them all happy.

Sorry had to vent a bit, not a good start to a Monday!

Is this a good OBDII scanner for the Accord?

You should have just sent her a single sentence email.
"We will be conducting an internal investigation regarding this matter."
Then, nothing.
Ever.

If she ever inquired again later just reply, "The investigation into this matter is ongoing."
Leave her nothing to latch onto.

If there are two of you,
Gerald Fitzpatrick and Patrick Fitzgerald, and you both have Miatas.

This is so juvenile.

I get their stuff all the time. I'll keep an eye out for ya. I will PM you when I find one.

Hell, I even sold one of those about 2 years ago for less than that. Bought 2 returns on a pallet for $150, found another trashed one on CL for another 50 bucks and made 2 good machines out of the parts. Sold one and kept one.

Thanks a lot. I can get the bandsaw down to about $202 with the 25% off coupon, but if I could find that and save an extra few bucks it would be great. I have been checking to local car magazines and have not ever seen that one before on ebay.

top comment goes to "good job to arlington police who got them after only 70 cars"

That ad could just be one of their little envelope sized slip inserts that are included with 100 other merchants in local marketing mailers that come every so often. In that case, they'd only turn up in whatever region they were being targeted.
