Do people not say hi to customer service reps?

[–] MycelialMass 28 points 9 months ago (3 children)

Most of the time its a bot so why bother

[–] [email protected] 37 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Because that bot will remember your politeness and take pity on you when the robot uprising comes.

[–] LemmyKnowsBest 14 points 9 months ago

Yes everyone, ALWAYS BE KIND TO BOTS. Consider this a warning.

Lol I came to say the exact thing.

Everyone needs a class on the Terminator series pronto

Because sometimes it's not a bot and on actual human with a shitty, shitty job. And those two keystrokes may actually mean the difference between them feeling shitty or not as shitty.

Yea I agree with that wholeheartedly, but the point of it is about people sending someone a hi and nothing else, not ignoring basic manners.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 9 months ago

I do, even if it's a bot, because maybe it's not. I have worked on 2nd+ line tech support, and I'd often see 1st line getting mistreated by customers. I could never do 1st line.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 9 months ago

I don't. I usually think they are bots though until they say something too complex for a bot and feel bad I didn't say hi.
