Infiltration

I've always wondered why people think that using swear words will make someone else want to help you... And, no I'm not referring to those that have Tourette's Syndrome. It's usually a good day if I only get sworn at once a day...it doesnt happen often. In dealing with confidential info, most people would appreciate my efforts to keep their account info/business practices safe. I dont really care if the owners wife/husband/bf/gf/or whatever calls in, if they are not listed on the account I am not going to do what they want. Just today I once again was called a f*cking b*itch when I wouldnt release any account info to the 'business manager'--nor would I change the account info based on their request. After I advised that I didnt appreciate the language, he then said 'you had better change the account, you dumb c*nt if you know whats good for you...if your company wants to get paid, youd better give me what I want!' Um, yeah, sure....for one thing, this isnt Burger King & you CANT have it your way. Plus, I can handle just about any name that I am called but the 'c' word is the one that I wont tolerate. I just had to laugh at him at that point...using the 'f' word every other word just means you need to get a dictionary & expand your vocabulary. I just dont think people believe in the saying, 'you catch more flies with honey then you do vinegar'. You can conduct your business in a very professional manner & get your point across without swearing or issuing ultimatums....in fact, you'll get a better response if you dont resort to that. Oh, well...the work day is over. I dont have to deal with that until again tomorrow!
