Talking about entitled customers, some customers call companies just to get money. At our bank, many expect compensation for simply calling about an issue, because it worked before. This one guy bought something from a scam site, filed a claim, and kept calling daily asking for compensation becaue the process took a little long to resolve and he had to call. Well, our company often expects us to escalate for such cases, so we do. 🤨
Where do you think this sense of entitlement comes from?

The pandemic changed people in the weirdest ways. Entitlement existed before of course, but it is a whole other level now. Where it used to be one or two genuinely awful customers a week, it's now many times a day. There is such a strong every person for themselves mentality and I don't mean to be dramatic or anything, but I don't like the direction society is heading in.

You are right about that. Covid has got the worst out of people. I feel people were kinder before all of this but now it is just madness .

SMH these people. I swear it's the "if you give a mouse a cookie..." story playing out in real life. It worked for them in the past, so they figure it will next time they try too.

Thats exactly what this guy was doing. He knew that this specific line of business was able to give him what he wanted last time and he was on a hunt to talk to them again.

Exactly! It’s like some people think inconvenience equals compensation. I swear, a few have turned it into a full-time job. Maybe it’s because they’ve gotten freebies before, so now they expect it every time something doesn’t go their way.

It comes from them doing business with the company! Crazy as it is if the put money in that bank of has been a long time customer of a company then they need whatever they want to be taken care of

2. In terms of compensation, how much value (% compensation) does a TS clearance have in the DC area? Places I'm considering: AWS, Azure, GCP, Data bricks, Appian etc.
Any advice, thanks!
