Im indian and i refused several times to get a psuedo name (though i licve in Canada) and my name and accent are apparently rather noticable. I ve received some many hilarious calls with jackasses being total jerks to me. Ill share a couple of stories.

I oncwe had a call where the account was transferred from wrrenty exhange (in India) and th rep was having a hell of a time with this texan. He was just being a total jerk to his guy so when he came on the line, he heard me and said rather loudly "Dam @#$ god dam paki". I swear it was like Christ walked again becasue i teed off on him and totally laid him out.

Are you serious? Some people can be sooo rude. I admit I have been frustrated as a dealer with customer service before, especially sprint but I would never attribute it to the race of a person. I had some guy come in and was spouting off to another employee about some spick that he almost hit in the parking lot. I turned around and immedietly I could see him look at my name tag and cringe. He apologized. I look very white but my last name is obviously hispanic. I hate ignorance.

Yeah, I dont really have an accent or anything, but some people can tell I'm Canadian and my last name is sorta wierd (its Swedish, but some dumb people think its Spanish - I know, totally unrelated). Anyways, once this guy called in and was like; "Awww, are you American?" I was like, no, actually I'm Canadian. And hes like: "Well then, I refuse to talk to ANYONE who isn't a born American, so transfer me to a call center in the states." I mean, what I jerk. I transferred him to Spanish customer care.

I've just recently been informed that I'm racist...
Apparently if you deny someone a credit it's only because of their race. 🙄

My Story.
Lady comes on the line. - "I have 3 questions for you. Are you white? are you american? and are you christian?"

Me - "Yes, Yes, and Yes" (accept im canadian white and i hate christianity)

lady - "Let me give you this number to pull up. XXX-XXX-XXXX. Now i know your not going to see everything those asians can see because they get better tools then you."

Me - " Well i guess ill try to help you out as best i can with the programs given to me."

Lady - "Its ok i like talking to white ppl more because you can understand them."

Then she continued on and like every few statments she would say something like prays Jesus or A-men or she would refure to something in the bible i didnt now.
