being on vacation i am still on call for any emergencies that may arise down at work..fair enough.
have received 3 calls been able to walk my helper though 2 of them, tripped circuit breaker and loss of power to a hoist.... nothing big.
while outside between showers my helper called and asked how to do a "rga" <return goods authorization> form to sent back a part and how to do a "ra" <repair authorization> on a controller... asked a couple questions all i got was.... i don't know. he handed me over too that department supervisor was told that both rga and ra where being sent to the g/m's computer. perfect so why are you calling me? how do we ship them back..really
almost fell off the well cover laughing to myself.
explained in detail where to find a box,bubble wrap and tape to ship back the parts, told him that somebody will have to drive to the ups store with either cash or the company credit card. ok thanks end of call.
moments later the g/m called, she called how much will it cost to sent the box back..really
explained to her that you will need the dimensions and weight of the box as well the zip code and call the ups store for a price with or without extra insurance.... ok thanks end of call.. that call was just too funny.
before saying anything more yes they count on me and i will do anything for them... but how to ship a box... wonder what they are going to call tomorrow with..........where has common sense gone too..????
do you have a story on common sense blunders..?
