I walked into store #2 (a company store, btw) and said the other AT&T had called regarding the Fuze. He asked me who they had talked with and I said I didn't know; the only salesperson helping a customer raised her hand. The guy I was talking to said I would have to wait to work with her and she would be right with me. Um, okay. He then asked if I wanted to look at the phone or accessories and I said no, I just need to pay for my phone. He reiterated that she would be right with me.

I proceeded to watch the other two salespeople stand around and do nothing (sorry, not true, the one saleswoman did some texting). After 15 mins. I was done and said "This is ridiculous. You two are standing around doing nothing when all I need to do is pay for my phone." I then walked out.

I understand commission but since all the lady did was answer the phone and advise it was in stock, I'm thinking she could have figured a way to split the commission with bozo #2 for ringing it up for me. As it stood, they all made a big fat zero. I came home and ordered online, which is what I should have done in the first place, but I had wanted the phone today.

I've sent in a complaint to AT&T and I worked on some deep breathing when I was done.

You do know that's not positive reinforcement, right? :D

... their coverage stinks. At least in my house. I have a co-worker who has AT&T for his personal phone and uses VZ for his work phone, and consistently gets better coverage w/ VZ. AT&T is :rolleyes: Enjoy your new phone... when it arrives!

A therapy dog? Did the dog ask you about your inner child?

We are hosed.

Thanks to the drunk chick - we missed out flight to MXP. The coils not re-route us to get there at a reasonable time, so we have abandoned MXP and will stay in NYC for the weekend.

Now at baggage claim - EWR. What a nightmare. They said it could be 3 hrs to get the bags... I'm hoping to somehow salvage the trip in some way.

Unhappy at baggage claim...

Unfortunately for him, BL JR and her friend wore him out. I didn't realize all the training they had to go through to become a therapy dog; he was just amazing.

Nice. Never heard of the concept.

I could picture baglady in the nursing home...couture robe and slippers, with orderlies on her floor that by strange coincidence make perfect margaritas.
