Wouldn't it be nice if you could do video calls sometimes so those annoying people could see that you are an actual human being doing the best you can??<br /><br />What I don't like is that some companies make it near impossible to give an employee such as yourself a pat on the back. Awhile back we were experiencing problems with our cable and the guy I called at the company was so extremely helpful and courteous. While we were waiting for him to run tests, he would engage me in simple conversation about our kids and parenthood in general. <br /><br />I was so impressed with him that I tried to call back and speak with his supervisor to let him/her know what much I appreciated their employee. Couldn't get a hold of anyone. Tried going through their website. Couldn't get a hold of an e-mail. After 30 minutes of trying, I finally gave up.<br /><br />Companies really should make it easier for customers to give kudos to those employees, such as yourself, who go out of their way to help customers. That might make a world of difference for employees who feel as if what they do isn't valued by others.Helenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10743718606624231459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343507762021483707.post-11199524776989814502011-11-18T05:50:35.356-05:002011-11-18T05:50:35.356-05:00You are working so hard.

I have that problem with my students a lot. If they would just f'ing listen to me!!! It's so infuriating. It makes me want to stay in a hole and not talk to anyone.
