eeeeeeeeeeeeeew. one of our drivers brought cash back from a customer. it's soaking wet.
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
it's so gross
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
I mean, idk why it's wet, it's not raining
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
I'm... going to go disinfect my hands
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
on a side note, but still work related
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
ugh
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
I talked to this lady a full month ago about bills they needed to pay from December
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
she told me she'd send a payment within two weeks, which was fine
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
I had to call her again yesterday, because there still hadn't been a payment and they'd placed a new order
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
which would have to be delivered COD if they didn't send payment
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
all the sudden she had no idea they owed us anything
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
(mind, I started out the call with "hey, we talked last month about a couple invoices that were due")
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
told her her current delivery would have to be COD, because she said she didn't know when they'd make the payment
Nofuckstogive
... ew.
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
And then she calls back now: "we didn't know about this, but we mailed a check this morning, the delivery guy will be here in fifteen minutes, can you cancel the COD?"
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
/headdesk, eyeroll
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
this wouldn't be a problem, lady, if you'd done what you said you'd do a month ago
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
I'd be less annoyed if she hadn't blatantly denied talking to me last month
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
it's not like she talked to someone else and could even hope to get away with that excuse
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
we're a small office. there's two of us who handle accounts receivable, and I do 3/4ths of the calls myself
papermint tiger
....alllso 'oh the check is in the mail!' Is the oldest money-dodge in the books
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
haha, well, that's generally how we handle payments that are past due
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
either they let us know they'll send the next check with our driver at their next delivery, or they mail it and we give them two weeks from mail date for it to get into our system
papermint tiger
That's perfectly fine, but just telling you that with no proof with a delivery on the way is a little...fishy
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
most of my calls are an easy "oh hey, these are due, what's up? oh, you just mailed it/will mail it today/tomorrow, okay!"
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
but yeah, I know what you mean
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
given that she flat out lied to me yesterday...
papermint tiger
Yeah...
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
oh
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
huh
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
I just realized I didn't get a lunch break
ѕo Hαıʟ Sιтнιѕ
welp. that's one more hour of pay XD
