Last spring I was looking for a lawyer to find out if I had a case to go to court over an issue I had. Whenever possible I try to patronize black businesses. I google lawyers in Baltimore and I find I site which lists law firms. Most listings with a picture were of white people. I understood because as a DJ with an ethnic name, I don't have my pic on my listing on a similar DJ site. The important thing is to get a potential client to click thru to your website or call you first and then they can be prejudiced after that if they choose. So on the lawyer site I'm tryna find "black" names on the listing with no pics. Bingo! I find a guy with a name like Malik Torres. If this wasn't a brotha, he was close enough. So why did this gum-poppin, no customer-service training, hood rat answer the phone?? I shyt you not the bytch was so ghetto, this coulda been a comedy skit. I'm tryna explain my case to the bytch and finally she cuts me off and says "Hoe Lawn (hold on)". Next thing I know a guy is on talkn about "Can I help you?" I ask who this is? Dude is like "Ummmm....Malik Torres. Can I help you?" Real smug like I can see the mufukka and should know who I'm talking to. I say ok, She didn't tell me she was transferring me to you, so I had no idea. Did she fill you in on why I'm calling or do I need to start over? He says "well let me see here", and starts pulling up all kinda irrelevant history about me from some database. As he's reading off certain shyt I'm like "man thats all fine and good but none of that shyt is what I'm calling about". He gets smug again. "Well I'm just doing this to determine what may be the cause of your issue". I said "I was about to tell you and next thing I know you're on your computer pulling up old shyt. You never even asked me a question!" This mufukka says 'Oh well she said you didn't know what the issue was". At that point I went in. I told him I was telling the ghetto bytch my issue (which was too complicated for her GED ass) and then she put me on hold and the all of a sudden he was on the line. I told him theres no way she I didnt know why I was calling, what the dumb bytch mustve done was hand him the phone and say "talk to him, he 'ont know what he talkn about". I told him the only reason I called him was trying to support black business but if you got untrained idiots like her answering the phone, you won't be around next year. I said clearly you or somebody up there is fukking that bytch cuz there's no way somebody interviewed her and was like "yeah we gonna put her in reception".
I need to speak to YOUR manager.
