My sister just sent me an email of a chatlog she had with a Walmart customer service person (after getting past the obvious bot at the start [possibly]), and at the end, the agent said "I will be honest with you, You have been the calmest and most understanding customer I have dealt with today, Thank you so much for that." (This had nothing to do with why she sent the chatlog to me, but that's neither here nor there, and I won't be going into that here in this post.)
When I had to talk to a Walmart customer service person a few weeks ago, that agent said just about the exact same thing to me as well, almost verbatim. So, either my sister and I, separately, really were the calmest and most understanding customers these agents interacted with on these particular days, or... they just say that to everybody. *shrug* (Or at least to anyone who isn't a complete asshole. Maybe even to them, too, because, hell, even if we had been complete assholes, how would we know if everyone else before us hadn't been even bigger assholes? *eye roll*)
But seriously, if they just say it to everybody, and we find out about that? It kind of loses any meaning. It just becomes yet another manipulative thing that an agent recites as part of their script. That's all. Either that or it's just bots, all the way down, which becomes more and more likely with every passing day, I suppose, and that's even worse and more deceitful.
