well first of all...didnt your mother ever teach you not to call anyone after 10 pm?
I don't think its the fact that they are being called at 3am thats the problem, what providers get upset about is the sheer lack of consideration a lot of potential clients have for providers. would you call your mechanic at 3am? no probably not, regardless if the phone is off or on.
What providers get upset about is male entitlement.
If you wouldnt like to be bothered at 3am then dont bother people at 3am.
Also 99.9% or providers dont talk on the phone to clients and make that very obvious in their ads and website. So if I had that plastered all over my website and some asshole still took it upon himself to call me in the middle of the night then.....yeah i would probably yell at you too lol
Its not about us being cold bitches its about clients not respecting us.
so just dont be an ass and call people at 3am like a crazy stalker **shrug**
While I agree with pretty much what you've said, I will say this. If I called my mechanic at 3am, it would go to his/her VM on a separate business line. So guys like myself and a few others see no reason why an SP would not use a separate phone and switch it off when she doesn't want to be contacted. Even using a single phone is fine but either turn it off or be prepared for a possible late night/early morning call from some asshole. That's a potential side effect for those who claim they need to leave it on for emergency purposes.
It's about as simple and effective as him unfollowing ALL these women posting this on Twitter. Lol.
But the point overall is who cares? If the lady wants to complain, let her. If she CANT turn off or mute her phone for some reason, she has every right to complain about 3am phone calls.
You are correct - she can complain. But it doesn't solve the problem in any way and it's one thing to complain about something you really can't change (e.g.the government) versus something where you can easily take steps to solve the problem. It would be like me complaining about an ugly plant on my property - I could very well just remove it.
Not that I follow twitter at all but it seems the ladies have a complaint and he offered the simplest of solutions.
Does he seem to get a bit carried away? Sure. But him unfollowing the ladies on twitter is not a solution to their complaints.
Yes unfollowing doesn't change things for the ladies but since the OP seems a little incensed over seeing all the complaints, unfollowing or avoiding Twitter is a solution to his bitterness. I definitely think he gets carried away though as this is something so trivial.
Lt, your thread made it on Twitter. Take a bow and enjoy the moment.
I really hate when assholes on review boards complain when SPs demand respect (as in dont call someone at 3am and expect to not get yelled at) and two specific SPs always pipe in about how they agree. Throwing your peers under the bus to make more money makes you a trash person
I would post the link but I'm not sure if I'd be violating a Terb rule.
PLEASE tell us who posted this.
