Best customer experience

So I just got off of the phone to a company I have applied for a job at. I hate the interview process. There's always the same questions and I never have the answers for them. The big one is "can you tell us a time when you gave great customer service?" what I can't say every time can I? I don't mean to blow my own horn but I try to give everybody the same service. I always say in these situations that I serve people how I want to be served. Nobody wants to be served like they are a piece of shit.
So anyway I pick an example of serving a customer. Normally them coming in angry and leaving happy. I've even used a colleagues experience and passed it off as my own. I mean everybody lies. But I just wonder what the best story these people asking have heard back?

"I was helping a customer get something from a high shelf when they went into labour. I had to deliver the baby myself. They named the baby after me and the customer still managed to buy what she wanted. I then cleaned up the mess left and my manager gave me a promotion. Oh and did I mention the baby was the reincarnation of Jesus? "

Still I now have to wait to hear back. And even then I have to leave my other job before I start so I doubt they will hire me as they will have to wait for about a month. Also the job may end up being shit.

Everybody has a price

So last night the conversation took a turn into the how much would you want to..... And although people would try to hide who they were, we all know that everybody has a price. Some hirer than others.

I always find it hard to put a figure on something when asked those types of questions. My mind instantly jumps to a silly figure. When I know that I would probably do it for a quarter of that price, whatever it may be. That's what money has done to us. I mean some people are already doing some of these acts for money. Others would willingly do it for free.

Some times you just have to pray somebody doesn't ask you the how much question and they have the amount you quote.

As I really don't want cum coming out of my nose

Moments of embarrassment

So the other day I got on the DLR at my local stop. I had my mp3 player on and was in my own little world. I stepped onto the train and went to take a seat. I sat down and looked straight ahead. Right into the eyes of a mother breast feeding her child.

I quickly looked away and started getting worried. "what do I do now? Did she see me look? I didn't expect it!"

I knew I had to look cool and pretend it wasn't anything but I also knew I couldn't look over in that direction without seeming like a pervert or something. So I put my bag down, turned my music up and started reading Sin City which I had brought with me. Looking at breasts in there instead of the others.

What do you do in those situations?

Tonight you belong to me


So I got to thinking the other day about how things such as invites work. If somebody is planning on doing something. Who do you invite? How do you it?

I find that people don't take it upon themselves to invite many people to things anymore. You'll get the people who see them nearly everyday or just randomly turn up at where they live (which I have never understand, is it really accepted by everybody?) they will be the ones who do something with the person as it is much easier to speak to somebody face to face rather then pick up a phone and write a text. So then you get stuck in a loop of just these people going out and then when it comes to you or somebody wanting to do something you have to be the one to ask people "Does anybody fancy doing anything" only to normally get a reply such as "We are doing (insert thing here) you can come along if you want" so if the first message was not sent then there would have been no knowledge about anything taking place which you seem to be invited to if you wanted to go.

So I don't know how to handle this types of situations. I find just trying to ignore them seems to do the trick. If you don't get invited out you don't get invited out. There isn't anything anybody can do about it now. It's far too late.

I'm sorry that these blogs aren't very good. I mean I'm not really writing them for anybody in particular so I guess there is nobody to say sorry to, but still I know they aren't great. So if you do read them then, I'm sorry and also thank you.

I will also start doing some more drawings to put on here soon too, so get excited ya'll........I won't say that again.

Here i go again on my own

So here I try again. I have decided to try to give this blog thing another go. I need to find more things to write about so I suppose I will have to try to do more with my life.

I am going to start jogging and cutting down on spending. This is because I won't be able to live otherwise. I mean I have rent to pay. I have also gotten back into script writing. I know a few blogs ago I explained that I was going to work on an idea again. I didn't do that but I started my T.V. series that I have been planning for a while now. Perfect Game is a drama with tiny bits of comedy (I find them funny anyway) It's got a heavy amount of bowling in it. But I don't want to give away too much information about it. Lord Sauron has many spies with many eyes. If you know who I am and fancy reading it then get in touch. I'd be more then happy for any feed back.

I'm about to start writing episode 3 for the 6 episode series. Why do I keep writing it when it will probably never get made? I don't know. It gives me something to do. I'm also really up for trying to adapt something, find a story and try to write a screenplay for it. I know this will be a big challenge but I think it could really help me crafting my skills. I don't even know if I can write so all of this could be for nothing, still you have to do something don't you.

I want to be creative.

But that's not as easy as it seems

Anyway I feel this blog has lost it's way so I will end it.

I will try to write another in the next day or so. I mean why not?

Bye

Waiting

I hate that when you go anywhere you have to wait. Different places  different waiting. At the moment I am watching bear grylls while wait to either go home or for people to do something. It's the tough choice. Tick rock as they say
