How To Cope With A Client Who’s Crazier Than You Are

client customer service satire
My favorite.

“Crazy” clients are a staple in any business. Whether they’re the middle aged suburban moms who ask for the manager or the actual deranged lunatic looking to buy millions of bulletproof shields from a camera store (a very specific example so you know it’s true), every business person comes in contact with a difficult customer. So what should you not do when dealing with a crazy client?

Yell At Them

Yelling will only make them stronger.

Punch Them

Don’t do it. Jail’s not worth it.

Put Them On Hold Forever

They will catch on after year 5 of waiting, and they will find you.

Refer Them To The Intern

Ya, because the intern’s gonna know how to fix the problem…

Client Customer Service Satire
“Oh, you also once worked in customer service?”

Connect Them To Someone Else

If they keep getting connected to different departments, eventually they’ll get connected to the Russians and somehow that won’t be good for any of us.

Lose Your Cool

The last thing you’d want is for the customer to think you’re not cool and then go tell everyone at school so that you end up having to eat lunch with the nerds.

Invite Them Over To Dinner

London broil and a nice cabernet sauvignon won’t solve the issue and now the customer knows where you live. Use your head dumbass!

Give In

Never give up. Remember: The customer is NEVER right!
