I’ve been in various customer service jobs for almost twenty years now. Currently working for a small business that will fire customers and back me up when they are despicable. Despite that, I just can’t take it anymore. It’s undignified. I’m awake at 4AM from sheer adrenaline anticipating the verbal abuse and ignorance. My mental health is in shambles yet again. My will to participate in society is almost zero. Yesterday, a woman went ballistic on me because I denied her a credit extension on a product we sell because she was simply not approved. She was paying for the rest with state funding and most likely wanted us to front the remaining hundred dollars of product by never paying for it. I don’t care if you use state dollars…but you need to pay for the difference. It’s feeling like the last of many straws. What was yours? What WILL be yours?
