Between that game and my brand new tv getting bad pixels

Samsung requires a service visit. It’s complimentary. Got an agent right away, but still spent 20 minutes verifying what I told the dude in the first 20 seconds of the call.

Just inconvenient.

I alway wonder how much bad customer service is about companies being cheap and how much about customers being morons.

I remember a number of years back in Phila. my cable and internet being out. I call Comcast.

Them: "is your cable box plugged in? Is it on?"

Me: "I can see the cable to my house is disconnected from the pole"

Them: "Try resetting your cable box by doing XYZ"

Me: "I can see the cable to my house is disconnected from the pole"

Blah, blah, blah. I keep on arguing.

A couple of days later they send somebody out.

Guess what?

The cable to my house was disconnected frome the pole.

I imagine a neighbor either didn't pay their bill or cancelled and they disconnected the cable to my house by mistake.

I think this beats that for moronic

My dad passed away a few years ago and I was the executor of the estate.

He made a small amount of money on investments in the couple of months he was alive in the year he died so I filed a tax return on his behalf as the executor to get a modest refund for the estate.

The return went unprocessed for 4-5 months so I called the IRS.

After multiple phone tree bullshit transfers I finally got a woman on the phone.

I explained what was up and asked her to check the return.

She says to me "I must speak to the taxpayer or have his permission to speak to you."

I calmly tried to explain it again.

She repeated the same thing.

I got irritated and said "Lady, the taxpayer is dead ... would you like me to conduct a seance?"

She hung up.

I had to go to the local IRS office in person to get the return processed ... where a supervisor apologized on behalf of the US Government to me, after laughing when I told her the story.

I'd say similarly bureaucratic but much much more annoying since it involved your deceased father. That sucks.

My dad would have liked my retort ... so there's that.

Foles is a bad pixel. He infected your TV.

PS: What part of executor of estate does not equal permission?

It's a "duh" alright.
