The infamous first post

Well, I've been meaning to start a blog now for several months. I've been reading and following along on with many bloggers for awhile now and have decided to take the plunge into bloggerdom. Of course, now that I've started to write this post...I don't feel like writing.
I guess I could start with why I chose the name lackadaisical. I work customer service for a well known company and today a customer informed "me" that I was lackadaisical and did not care about her needs. First, I was completely caught off guard with the term lackadaisical(i mean who uses that), then i took the "me" and thought the customer must of meant the company as a whole, but then she went on and on about the lack of care I presented over the phone. Hmmm....me lackadaisical. I began to think....was this because her request was something that I knew I was going to be unable to help her with, was it the fact that her request was so far beyond fathomable that I disregarded her as "one of those customers", or was it the fact that today was just not a good day for me...having nothing to do with the customers request at all??? I think it was the fact that this person was upset because I told her that she may not return something that she purchased two years ago and get an exchange for something else even though she had never opened the item. I mean come on now. That's like buying a computer keeping it in the box and never opening it and then two years later when you finally get around to it decide that it is outdated and you want to return it for a newer model....sorry but any business owner in their right mind would tell you no. I think I was telling myself that this woman is getting majorly upset when there are so many other things in this world that are far worse....for example my life lol...I'm just kidding. More like people are dying, starving, homeless, etc etc.
Wow....It's amazing what you can write about when you just write thinking of nothing.
