Weekend nights are queuing nights which means we get more
calls compared to working days. This is so, as most of us do not have work
schedule on Saturday and Sunday. It is not only me I guess, but I noticed majority
of my calls are unresolved customers issues. I would receive these calls normally on
Saturdays and Sundays. I reckon I had been with the company for so long it is
probably why I used to get these types of call.
Folks, I work as a tech support for phone and satellite television.
Saturdays and Sundays are when most
customers are home and have more time to stay on their telephones. It is not
pleasant experience to get shouted at on the phone, but I never argue with
customers. I will only be wasting time if I do, as they will not listen. In a
way, I find some advantage on these types of call. I get to rest my throat as
customers do the talking. Likewise, while I let them vent out I have time to
check the history of their troubled services, find the best solution I could
offer them.
Believe me folks, by time a customer is done giving me a lengthy
lecture I was able to review their account.
Nope, I do not keep myself so quiet, a yes, right and short acknowledgment
is enough to tell a customer I am listening. At times if I need to type I would tell them I
am doing a search, I need to type. While reviewing their accounts and accessing
the relevant tools I will need, I would notice some improvements on our system.
Great! Our system is getting more user-friendly!
Thank you to all awesome guys and gals who worked hard to lessen our burden in
system navigation.
