How to Make Sure Customer Service Hates You

1. Ask the same question over and over again expecting a different result. Get upset every time you get the same answer. Or alternatively, go between different shifts asking different people the same question, also expecting a different result. This tactic in particular will get the receptionists/cashiers/etc to get together later and talk about how obnoxious you are.

2. Demand services or help while talking on your cell phone. It will make you look like you think the world of yourself and that the cashier/receptionist/technician/etc is a machine doing your bidding and only takes simple whispered one-word commands to perform it's duty. Don't bother yourself with actually speaking with them, explaining what you need or allow them to ask you any questions.

3. Be appalled at the prices. Have a fit at the cashier and tell them they simply must be the spawn of Satan for charging you these outrageous prices. Go on and on like this to make sure the cashier is adequately perplexed as to why you came in to the store in the first place if you couldn't afford the products.

Odds are the cashier himself/herself wouldn't be in the store either on their wage except for the fact they work there. Bonus, at their pay grade they make 0% of the calls over prices. So this is a great opportunity for you to whine and complain to irritate and annoy someone else.

4. Rush them. Tell them to hurry it up. Ask why they can't make the process go any faster...especially if you're dealing with a medical related profession where they're trying not to accidentally kill you. To add a cherry to the top of your being as irritating as possible sundae...be upset when you receive the expected results of a rush job and then moan some more about being late. Act like you're the only person in the world that has a job and is busy.

5. Say something completely unintelligible, when the person asks you to clarify or repeat yourself call them stupid or idiot.

6. Make up names to call them. Call all males "John" and females "Nancy" even if they've told you their name.
