I used to have a friend named Carol and how I wish I was never had to meet her in the first place tho. She behaved the same as that receptionist, lmao.
I love all her different jobs and how she treats people. I work in customer service, and she is actually an excellent training tool for me. Whatever she says and does, I just do the exact opposite! Sometimes I even think "what would Carol Beer do?", and then I try to picture what she would do and say... then I do or say the opposite out loud!! :)
@@groerhahn225 It's not atrocious. My friend from Germany broke her arm and the scar looked like Captain Hook ripped open her arm and stitched it with fishing line! I had surgery on my spine and the scar looks like a wrinkle! There is a BIG problem in the US with unpaid healthcare being used by those who just came in with NO insurance. This means the hospitals shift the cost to those who can pay, therefore you get a bill for $500.00 for a "portable cooling care unit" which is actually an icepack! However, I didn't have to wait more than a week for surgery.

Simon Walker maybe if people had respect over the phone they wouldn’t get disrespected back. 9 out of 10 people act like complete jackasses cause they hide behind the phone.

I have had melanoma (cancer) removed, my gallbladder removed, and bipolar disorder. Yet I still answer the phones where I work as nicely as possible.... But most of you people don’t care. You just want someone to kiss your ass like you’re the ruler of an empire. What goes around comes around.... bitch.

This is so real. We all have similar experiences in hospitals . Last time I took my cousin to the hospital as he received a letter for appointment. Went to the hospital receptionist she said sorry no appointment according to the computer. We then had to request an answer from the cardiologist who sent the letter.
