The Ranting Beaver

Sorry for not posting in a long while but but between work, holidays and birthdays been somewhat busy. But I will try to be back.

Let's see some things on my mind? hmmmmmm

1) well I haven't been this non-excited for a super bowl in well forever! Between this match-up and the piss poor excuse for good commercials last year, I just can't bring myself to get excited. 1 of 2 things are going to happen here. 1. Brady and company win and we will have to listen for the rest of our lives how they are the best team ever...far from it in my opinion. Or 2 Giants win pull the "greatest uset ever" yeah right...and another Manning wins which forces them to be in our faces for who knows how long....yeah sorry for not being excited about either possibility.

2)Directv customer service SUCKS! Anyone who knows me knows I have been a loyal supporter of directv for years, even backing them on message boards. But Now in the past 5 months I have had 2 very piss poor customer service situations with them and just may leave! No Sunday ticket for me??? eh oh well, maybe now I will try to figure out how sopcasts work and save me a couple bucks!

3)Being without Directv has forced me to use redbox....hmm nifty little service I must say! Sometimes not that great of a selection but at the same time there is always something for everyone! YAAAAAAAY for $1.00 rentals. And if you google redbox codes you can get free rentals too.

4)My Nuggets, Avs and Broncos are just straight underacvhievers with no depth and can't stay healthy. Oh well I guess these next few seasons will weed out the non fans!

Well thats all for now kiddies!

Until next time

Scare ya later!

Hi all Da Beaver is here.
I would like to um.. say a little bit about people that work in the service industry loose their patience a lot faster due to being held to a higher standard.. I agree and disagree due to the fact it always depends on the person. Yes we are held to a high standard and are expected to produce it to the bottom line. Keep the Share holders happy..SO they say. I feel that those that work in the industry have a lot of patience and are sympathetic when little things happen.

Why is it that if you work in a service industry (restaurant, sales, support ... you name it), you easily lose patience with someone when you are not getting the best service?

Is it like we hold people to a higher standard, because we are held to one? Shouldn't we have more patience because we know what it is like?

I overheard a story today that made me wonder why people are like this ...
