What would be your fake customer support name if you could choose and why? I’ll go first “Karen.”

Behind their backs (of course), one of the managers at my store calls annoying female customers "Joy" because it's ironic. If a problem customer is male, she calls them "Roy," I guess just because it rhymes?

like

haha Joy, I love it!

I would use Ben for men and definitely Karen for women.

My name is Karen, LOL, so I'd go with anything but that! How about Stella, after the woman who sued McDonalds because her coffee was too hot?

Have you ever read the details of her story and the court case? It's honestly pretty upsetting, she was absolutely in the right. I wouldn't mock someone for standing up against a practice that had seriously injured many people.

I always think awful customers who are guys should be called "Keith," Family Guy viewers will get the reference. Also, it sounds like Karen, like Keith & Karen could be twins or something.

I’ve been working for my State Farm agency as a team member for 2 years. I am licensed in property and casualty as well as life and health, but only make $13 an hour.

My boss also has me running a retired agents office until a new one is chosen (its an hour away with no pay increase or mileage pay). Also, no benefits! Should I start job searching?

I cringe when I'm at a friend's house and they answer their phone, find out it's a telemarketer, and just hang up on them. It's so rude. They know I have to cold-call people at my job and you'd think they would at least act like they were more respectful of the job.
