Yes me tooI'm so glad this thread is pivoting from bad phone manners to the important issue of bad grammar!
Yes me too
Sounds like a right c**t don’t bother with him.Well in my defence when I was initially trying to contact him I tried several times at different times of the day with no answer. I finally got through around 5pm but he was driving, so as I said I wanted to get hold of him before the weekend. Thought I would try first thing.
Like Dickie said I thought 'wow' caught him at a bad time, and as I sat pondering whether to not bother with him again or ring later when he may have calmed he texted me and I quote:-
8-25am is not acceptable, I have other priorities and don't wish to talk about parts or your car.
This after putting the phone down on me. So I just had to reply:-
I don't know what time zone you live in but in the real world 8-25am is not early.
I have to say I am surprised at your impolite attitude and lack of manners, it shows lack of character.
If you had bothered to call me as you promised I would not need to chase.
I now do not now wish to do business with such an impolite person.
This guy has been advertising rare parts for well over ten years I have noticed him on the Alfabb forum in America and I know he has had dealings as far as Australia so would have thought he could get calls at anytime.
He did re-text me back again saying 'he only did it as a hobby and that he had a young family (well we have all had to deal with that) and he would not now sell me parts. Like he will ever get the chance.
Guess I put this up on here because I did question whether I had acted unreasonably, and to vent my spline.
Could we now have some thread drift please as I wish to forget the episode.
I can’t be the only numpty on here, can I?
More thread drift to lighten GTVGeOFF’s mood…I’ve been hammering the “like” button and STILL cannot easily get the laughing/astonished/ooh lover lover (thank you Shaggy) etc. I always end up accidentally highlighting the whole damned lot in blue and the have the iphone “cut/paste/highlight” tabs appearing directly over the emoji expressions. I know some helpful souls have told me what to do, but my dainty fingers (!) still don’t find it easy. Harumph! I can’t be the only numpty on here, can I?
