i just don't get what all the fighting is over

Why is everyone constantly waging the "my company is better" battle? Where I live (no offense meant here) verizon service sucks but then so does sprint, t-mobile, and nextel the only service i have in my hometown is cingular and a bit of attws, where my parents live they only have cingular and a wee bit of verizon. So why doesn't everyone realize that all companys have good and bad and just be content in the fact that we all have jobs?

Not all of us have jobs đŸ˜ĸ . But I think it comes down to the natural human tendency to want to bust someone's chops.

Most of the "fighting" you see on this site is in the area of friendly rivalry. And friendly rivalry is good for business. In addition, everyone has their opinions and wants to back them up. I'm sure you've noticed that you haven't seen much of the "uh-huh", "uh-uh" fighting here that you see at other forums. Most all of the arguments here are backed up by numbers, reports, and facts. Like the whole Cingular/Verizon argument or the CDMA/GSM argument that goes with it. They all have their virtues and downfalls and we all realize that.

Another contributer is company loyalty. These are the corp's that are...

LOL I love this forum.

We, the regular VZW posters, seem to be alot more laid back.. just go with the flow.....

Yeah take what people say on these forums in general with a grain of salt. I like reading phonepimp and muchdramas posts. They seem to have a ability to bounce in a damn funny comment at the right time.

And while I'm at it, these two individuals are two of the worst phonepimp and muchdramas. They seem to think that the more threads they post, makes them more creditable. Hey you know what, get a real job, and quit trashing each other and the rest of the competition.
As I said before, the lack of education is the cause of the lowly cell salesman, who can't do any better with the limited resources he/she was born with. Just keep reading some of the "council of 11 and still growing, with every letter they type they prove my point!

gee z1, I've never seen you post ANYTHING to do with wireless in any of its forms. Everything I post is supported by others in the industry, or articles that validate what I say.

What's the matter z1, did you try to masturbate and get rejected by both hands? I can only speak for myself, but what I've FORGOTTEN about the wireless industry, and sales as a whole, would easily surpass your entire cranial capacity. I have been in sales for over 25 years. I spend 7 of those years as the primary trainer to the fourth largest captive sales force in America. I have been involved in wireless since there WAS no technology debate... there was AMPS, take it or leave it.

I don't see you presenting anything that would show me to be in error, so put ...

if you're qualified, go to a VZW store and ask about interview blitz's.. that should do it.

1.) Define qualified

2.) What the hell is an interview blitz?

I'm also sad to say that if qualified means wireless experience, I don't have any. Just knowledge of the industry (any that you've seen here), customer service, and management experience. Not to mention I can sell ice to an eskimo. 😈

Believe it or not Z1 was back tonight at 22:30 referencing the Council of 11 and stating it's growing. More of his same rhetoric and spewing more "Good Will", and "Milk of Human Kindness". The post got removed and did not last 90 minutes. Someone shut it down fast. I made No request to remove it. So it looks like Phone Scoop monitors 24/7. đŸ¤Ŗ

You'd be amazed how much you can learn abot the competition when you make them defend something, and how much THEY learn too. If you are mature enough to keep your head, and approach it right, a good debate helps BOTH sides get better at what they do. That benefits not only the rep or CC person, but their customers as well.
