PLICK!

I just got interrupted 5 times, patronised and then ignored by a client, all in the space of me trying to tell him that (i) he is overpaying a contract party; and (ii) he should be able to offset this amount from another due payment.

What has the world come to when people can't even take the time to listen to someone telling them something that could save them money. Even if I had explosive diarrhoea, I'd still sit through that extra 20 seconds if I could save myself an entire US$25,000. Some people, like probably this guy's maid, could work a whole year and not even make that. When I finally get to finish my damn sentence, he tells me he's "too busy to bother with such details". Well don't let me get in the way of you saving the world, asshole. Because what else could be more important in the last 20 seconds when you could have been writing this piece of information down instead of drowning me out.

"Have been overpaying X. To stop overpaying X, ask for refund. X must think I am fool."
