I am not sure whether to post this here or in the jokes section.

I received a phone call from FTD asking me to fill an order. The FTD rep asked me if I could do FTD xx-xxx. I said wait, let me look it up on FTD.com.

Looked at it, posted price on the website reads $49.99. FTD rep gives me a price of $47.98. I ask her why she is shorting me $2.00, she says because "we can". I say "no you can't" She says "wait and let me see what I can do". Puts me on hold, comes back and says yes we can add the extra $2.00. She then proceeds to tell me that I should have asked for an extra $5.00.

I say from now on if you call me it is going to cost FTD an extra $10.00.

This conversation was in no way adversarial, rather jovial!

I get off the phone, and all of a sudden, I remember that FTD called me at my main store which is no longer an FTD memeber. I can't believe that I forgot to tell her that. The branch store is still an FTD member and it will be processed through that FTD membership.

That's just as good as Teleflora Headquarters calling me to fill an order today when they have 3 shops here in this area. I've been out of Teleflora almost a year. Go figure. Makes me wonder why they still have my phone number?
