Just shows how bad the cs are when incompetent consultants have to be brought in to do their jobs for them. Doesn't say much for your department.Quote:

We can choose the private companies we deal with...Quote:

Thats why we are all trying to get jobs there! So how does it feel Bohspartisan propping up the evil capitalist state! I am suprised you are part of the machine keeping the masses downtrodden!:D
Yeah but they're all as incompetant as the next. Once they get your money they don't care. Telecom Eireann was a far better service than Eircom. Easier to deal with, none of this call centre rubbish.Quote:

And it's not Dell. There is not direct dealing with the public though with the State Lab, so I can understand that its work goes unnoticed and standard issue uninformed public sector comments might be assigned to it and I'm sure many other workforces.
My point: There could be a hell of a lot of work going with your query behind the person who answers the phone who unfortunately is the public image.

In all departments/offices/companies that deal with the public?Quote:

1 in 10, is a lot different to 4 - 6 in 10. Don't even start wws you don't have a clue. The only way you learn these things is from first hand experience and in my line of work I have seen this , and there you can build up statistics, see the differences, and conform to generalisations even. I have, and I have conformed ( unfortunately maybe )Quote:
Paul O Shea - you are of course completely incorrect here. Yes, it DOES happen, you just don't know of it therefore you're points are pretty much made in ignorance.
..and I've done the work behind the phones in both sectors. Have you seen the amount of people who couldn't care less if they tried in the private sector and the percentage of these in the jobs for a long time?
I presume you're aware of the day-to-day big mistakes made because of unrealistic demands and deadlines made on employees in the private sector?
SO you're the only person one this thread qualified to debate it? Get a ****ing grip man and stop presuming you know the people on this thread.Quote:

Sorry, but no. The term "biddies" as used on Boards.ie is a hangover from the TE days, when the telephone lines were populated by insufferable, ignorant women that didn't give a toss about you or your telephone line, and demonstrated it in every patronising, sneering syllable they uttered. Don't even get me started on the months and in some cases years people had to wait for a telephone line. I don't like Eircom one bit, but their customer support is heaps better now than when it was privatised.Quote:

paul_o_shea, how many warnings do you need? One more comment like "you don't have a clue" and you'll be banned permanently from the Current Affairs forum. I mean one more comment ever. Tone it down or shut up.
Dodge, ffs you know better than to feed that kind of guff.

Just ****ed off as I'm under mad pressure in work and then reading this crap on my break....
The number of CS staff on this forum, "debating" stuff, when they should be doing what the taxpayers money pays for them today, is unreal!
It's no wonder the country is in such a mess!
I've said it many times, it doesn't matter who we vote into government, unless the CS is completely overhauled, nothing will change.
:D :DQuote:
