The next person who ask me where is there order I think I am just going to break down and tell them the truth instead of beating around the bush! I work for a small company and the owner evidently doesn't know how to manage money. How he has stayed in business for 30 years is beyond me. We are on credit hold with our two major suppliers. I have sent orders to them not knowing we were on hold. Customers are calling me asking where the order is? These are custom orders so they do take up to 4 weeks to complete but it has been 4 weeks and the order still hasn't been started because we are on credit hold. What am I suppose to tell the customer, I refuse to lie. And I don't get paid enough to listen to these people bitch at me! The owner won't take the calls, he doesn't want to be bitched at either but he is the one at fault here. These are the things I would just love to tell him but I don't have the necessary appendage to follow through. Unfortunately I need this job until something else comes along..... #1 Don't take a customers money if you can't produce their order in the time frame you told them you would. #2 Quit spending company money to remodel your home when you have bills that need to be paid here at the business. #3 If you don't start treating your customers right you aren't going to have any customers, word spreads about bad business practice.
