If you are CSR at - say - Citibank, you represent Citibank and all of the fraudulent practices they put in place. You are the street face of Citibank. Therefore, you can expect to get cussed out, because it is your job to field the calls of angry customers who have been screwed over by the company you work for.

Your alternative is to seek employment elsewhere.

LOL! This sounds like a dude I knew who worked for Time Warner cable. Most all he did was surf the net, draw, or read a magazine at his desk and he didn't have much focus. In fact, he really hated his job in general. Then they put him on as a repair tech, and he realized, he'd actually have to do some work.
He said people were angry a lot when they pay a high price for cable service, and cable service wasn't delivered in a timely manner or when it failed. People wanted compensation and to have their voice heard. SInce he was really just there for a paycheck, they were like irritating bugs, who were there simply to mess with him. He couldn't believe that he had went from messing with people to having people mess with him.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!1111!!!

Incidently, I think this thread belongs in the employment section....so gonna ask a mod to move it there.

I dont blame people for cursing you out. Have YOU no heart? Sure there are some real deadbeats out there but do you really really really think that people just dont feel like paying you?

Maybe.........just maybe, they lost their job. Have ya heard? We are in the worse depression since 1928. More Americans are out of work now then since WW2. Factory production is at its lowest in the history of the USA. Payroll has dropped to it's lowest level since the great depression. The construction industry has been desimated.

Once the most powerful companies on earth....companies (GM and Ford) who spelled American might are dead in the water and have drowned, more then a hundred trillion dollars in real estate equity is lost forever, over a trillion dollars in lost retirement nest eggs gone...poof.......bla bla bla....

Do you want me to help you further understand why people curse at you when you want their only few dollars left that they need to feed their kids or pay their rent?

Deadbeats some say? Immoral deadbeats? Let me tell you something. The very lenders who are trying to collect are about as moral as your government. Put it this way my friend. If you borrow money, you do have a moral obligation to honor that contract. But you also have a moral contract to provide the very basic necessities for your family. And when some one does not have enough money for both, they choose their family first and to hell with the banks. They been stealing from us peasants for generations. I have no heart for their grobbling right now which is falling on deaf ears.

If you can't stand the heat...

Part of the way the capitalist marketplace is supposed to work is the crap companies go out of business because they can't find reliable workers who will stay because A- they pay crap and B- the jobs are crap and C- the customers all complain. If all of the customers are complaining, maybe you need to take a hint?
