How I Feel After Dealing With Customer Service

Having been the type to almost consistently blame themselves, I finally realized that the problem was no longer me.

It’s the people that you deal with.

It seems that their has been a shift in power.

The customer no longer has it.

Some of the employees behind the desk or on the phone are abusive.

Some have problems with taking ownership for their mistakes and blame the customer.

And when you correct them explaining that the fault is theirs they then accuse you of accusing.

I even had to tell customer service good-bye because they wouldn’t allow me to speak with a manager.

I hung up and the representative called me back.

Apparently he wasn’t done arguing.

One girl seemed to be a little too happy while she would ask me questions.

Every time I tried to answer she would speak over me before I got my first word out.

I surprised myself when I finally yelled, “Shut-up!” which isn’t like me at all.

I don’t get provoked too easily.

It seemed she was doing it on purpose because it kept happening repeatedly.

I asked myself, my self-doubting and self blaming self,

“Am I imagining this?”

I googled on it and sure enough found an article on Forbes which describes exactly what I’m speaking of.

Funny how a person just can’t escape Narcissist Abuse.

So I am cutting back on purchases and becoming more independent on my internet devices.

People are argumentative and quite defensive.

Once upon a time I enjoyed human interaction.

These days I prefer to read and write.
