Clearing the Way for Satellite TV Reception

Hello, Danielle Wagner here, back again to tell you another humorous tale about the calls I receive as a Dish TV Representative. I have to say, each day that passes I never cease to be amazed by the types of satellite calls I receive. This tale, in particular, is a real laugh.

About three weeks ago, I had a frantic woman call in while I was working.

“Hello, this is Danielle with Dish TV, how can I assist you with your satellite service?”

“Oh, you can help me all right,” an irate woman sneered from the other end of the phone.

“I’m sorry, Ma’am,” I said, “is there a problem with your satellite TV service?”

“Nope, not anymore.” She snipped.

“Ma’am, I’m sorry, I don’t think I understand—“she cut me off before I could finish.

“Tell me something, do you happen to have a good landscaper you can send over here?”

“Landscaper?”

“Yes. You see, since a Dish Network technician was out here last week and informed my husband that it wouldn’t be possible to have satellite service hooked up unless there was a clear line of site for the satellite, my husband has decided to chop down every single tree in our yard!”

I tried hard not to laugh. She continued to inform me that her husband was so excited about the deals offered by Dish Network that he would allow nothing to stop him from receiving service, including the 8 trees he cut down.

Unfortunately, I had to inform her that we weren’t in the landscaping business, but that we could send a technician over to install the satellite TV dish. Needless to say, her husband was the only happy customer that day.
