sending a letter out of state

New Mexico/Old Mexico same difference.

 

i swear, sometimes when i was ordering stuff or calling people, i had the hardest time explaining to them that New Mexico is in the contiguous US states. they'd keep telling me that i need to call their international line and they were so impressed that i spoke english so well. did NO one take geography, EVER?

 

A Mr. Wade Miller of New Mexico called Atlanta's Olympic committee to buy tickets for the 1996 Summer Olympics. "I'm sorry. I can't sell tickets to someone outside the United States." Mr. Miller then tied to convince her supervisor that New Mexico is one of the 50 United States of America, whom told him "Sir, new Mexico, old Mexico -- it doesn't matter. You have to go through your country's Olympic Committee."

i had some dumbass tell me they don't accept PESOS. WTF? the conversation when basically as thus:

i didn't know they speak english is mexico

i don't live in mexico

it says here you're in new mexico

i'm american, i live in the state of new mexico

oh, that's nice, DID YOU RETIRE THERE? i hear you can get good service for the money.

*silence on my end because i'm getting lost at this point*

my parents vacation in mexico all the time...

i'm not in MEXICO, i'm in the state of new mexico...

i think it'd be really amazing to live overseas ( :stunned: that's ME) but we have a special division for dealing with overseas orders.

i'm not overseas, i'm in new mexico (increasingly appalled)...

i understand, ma'am, but you need to call our mexican line, SE HABLE ESPANOL...the number is...

no! you don't understand, i'm not in mexico! i'm in america!

at this point she got snippy. it's too hard on my blood pressure to recall. i simply called someone else.

 

Did you get her name?

I've had so many problems with customer service that I usually ask for the person's name at the start. At least I can complain to someone higher up if needed.

If you had said you were from New York or New Hampshire, she might have told you to call the European bureau.

Back when I was growing up, we used to have to find someone riding their horse to the town we wanted and pay them in gold to deliver it.

 

Well, thats fucking unreliable.

 

Yeah, fortunately Reagan fixed all that when he fought Drago and defeated the Soviets.

 

Back in my day, we didn't have these cash machines that would give you money when you needed it. There was only one bank in each state -- it was open only one hour a year. And you'd get in line, seventeen miles long, and the line became an angry mob of people -- fornicators and thieves, mutant children and circus freaks -- and you waited for years and by the time you got to the teller, you were senile and arthritic and you couldn't remember your own name. You were born, got in line, and ya died! And that's the way it was and we liked it!

And there wasn't all this concern about hy-giene! It my days, we didn't have Kleenex. When you turned seventeen, you were given the family handkerchief. ... It hadn't been washed in generations and it stood on its own ... filled with diseases and swarmin' with flies. ... If you tried to blow your nose, you'd get an infection and your head would swell up and turn green and children would burst into tears at the sight o' ya! That's the way it was and we liked it!

And we entertained ourselves! We didn't need moooovin' pitchurrrres. In my day, there was only one show in town -- it was called "Stare at the sun!" ... That's right! You'd sit in the middle of an open field and stare up at the sun till your eyeballs burst into flames! And you thought, "Oh, no! Maybe I shouldn't've stared directly into the burning sun with my eyes wide open." But it was too late! Your head was on fire and people were roastin' chickens over it. ... That's the way it was and we liked it!

 

Think of me when you're having the best sex of your life!

 

LOL....that's hysterical.

I never thought that people in New Mexico would ever have that problem.

 

Well sometimes they fuck up. I sent a money order to Oregon and they lost it.

 

For some reason I've had horrible luck getting mail delivered to me. I can send it fine. I bet I've had like $400 worth of stuff lost in the mail to me over the past 5 years. I UPS everything now.

 

Rotfl!
